## About the Role

The ideal candidate would have experience in underground distribution design as well as experience with inverter-based resources (IBR). Comfortable in AutoCAD as well as Microsoft office applications., * Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering from an accredited program with a focus on the power side and minimum of four (4+) years' experience in the design and construction of power/generation/renewable energy projects.

 * Understanding engineering standards and regulations (e.g., NEC, UL, ISO).
 * Develop system-level schematics, wiring diagrams, and technical documentation.
 * Collaborate with project managers, technicians, and other stakeholders to ensure successful implementation.
 * Thorough technical understanding of distributed energy technologies, including some combination of solar and battery
 * Project management experience with a demonstrated ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously and meet tight deadlines.
 * Knowledge of the various DER power sources within the Microgrid and how best interface with the utility to provide the most efficient system.
 * AutoCAD experience (for creating 30/60/90/IFC drawing sets for permit and installation)
 * Excellent communication skills possessing the ability to communicate with technical and non-technical resources to make projects work.

## Description

* Develop detailed engineering designs for utility-scale and commercial solar PV and Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) projects from concept through construction.
 * Create and maintain Issued for Construction (IFC) drawing packages, including plan views, profiles, single-line diagrams, site layouts, electrical details, grounding plans, trenching plans, and equipment installation details.
 * Produce construction-ready drawings and design documentation that comply with project specifications, utility requirements, applicable codes, and industry standards.
 * Coordinate with civil, structural, electrical, and geotechnical teams to ensure design integration and constructability.
 * Develop and review AC and DC system layouts, equipment placement, cable routing, conduit schedules, and wiring diagrams.
 * Perform system design calculations including voltage drop, cable ampacity, fault current, grounding, short-circuit, and equipment sizing studies.
 * Design and review medium-voltage (MV) and distribution systems associated with renewable energy facilities, including feeders, collector systems, reclosers, switches, transformers, and utility interconnection infrastructure.
 * Apply knowledge of electric distribution system design principles to support utility interconnections, feeder upgrades, line extensions, and distribution protection requirements.
 * of-interconnection (POI) requirements with utility stakeholders.
 * Prepare and review single-line diagrams, three-line diagrams, protection and control drawings, and relay coordination documentation.
 * Support distribution engineering efforts including conductor selection, pole loading assessments, voltage regulation considerations, and equipment specification.
 * Coordinate with utilities to address interconnection comments, design revisions, and permitting requirements.
 * Conduct constructability reviews and provide engineering support during procurement, construction, commissioning, and project closeout.
 * Evaluate engineering change requests and update IFC drawings to reflect approved field modifications.
 * Review vendor drawings, equipment submittals, and manufacturer documentation to ensure compliance with project requirements.
 * Develop bill of materials (BOMs), equipment specifications, and installation standards for PV, BESS, and distribution equipment.
 * Support permitting activities by preparing technical documentation for AHJs (Authorities Having Jurisdiction), utilities, and regulatory agencies.
 * Collaborate with construction managers and field teams to resolve RFIs, design conflicts, and installation issues.
 * Utilize AutoCAD, Civil 3D, MicroStation, or similar design platforms to develop and maintain engineering drawing packages.
 * Support project schedules by managing engineering deliverables, tracking design milestones, and coordinating multidisciplinary reviews.
