EngineeringElectrical Engineer

Join a team dedicated to delivering reliable electricity while supporting the transition toward a more sustainable energy future. As an Electrical Engineer, you will provide technical expertise across a diverse portfolio of utility-scale solar, wind, and natural gas power generation assets. You will help maintain operational reliability, improve electrical safety, investigate equipment failures, and optimize protection systems across the fleet. Working alongside operations teams and technical specialists, you will contribute to regulatory compliance, maintenance strategies, and the restoration of critical equipment following electrical events. You will also support new development and acquisition activities by evaluating electrical infrastructure and identifying potential operational risks. This remote opportunity offers a broad technical scope for an engineer who enjoys solving complex power system challenges and continuously expanding their expertise.

In this role, you will provide engineering support across power generation operations, focusing on system protection, electrical safety, equipment reliability, regulatory compliance, and technical problem-solving. You will collaborate with site personnel, contractors, and cross-functional teams to improve asset performance, prevent recurring incidents, and ensure electrical systems operate safely and reliably.

  • Understand protective relaying principles, including relay setting development and review, configuration, and event record analysis.

  • Possess strong working knowledge of NERC reliability standards relevant to generation, particularly the PRC, MOD, and FAC families.

  • Have experience supporting regulatory audits, self-certifications, requests for information, and periodic compliance submissions.

  • Demonstrate extensive knowledge of major power plant electrical equipment, controls, and protection systems.

  • Be experienced in troubleshooting electrical systems, conducting root cause analyses, and evaluating operational risks.

  • Possess strong analytical, critical-thinking, and problem-solving abilities.

  • Demonstrate excellent written, verbal, and presentation skills.

  • Be proactive, capable of making sound decisions independently, and comfortable taking initiative without constant direction.

  • Have strong organizational and time-management skills, attention to detail, and the ability to manage multiple priorities.

  • Work effectively both independently and collaboratively with cross-functional teams.
