Perform conceptual and detailed HV and MV Substation Physical/Electrical design for medium to large scale utilities/substations (including basic layout, electrical arrangement, one line, three line drawings, plan-section, grounding, AC and DC system drawings)
Review, analyze and execute complex technical studies and project scopes.
Develop and review technical specifications, drawings, and standards of equipment and projects.
Perform Quality Control reviews on medium to large substation physical design projects.
Create and review bill of materials for substation physical projects.
Perform engineering cost estimates and proposal development efforts for substation physical projects.
Develop and provide advanced technical presentations to the team to assist with staff technical development.
Plan and manage mentoring and training of junior engineers.
Be involved in client interaction (including site visits) with a drive for customer satisfaction.
Possess excellent communication skills and the ability to interact with the internal teams and clients to meet project objectives.
