Electrical Engineer

Job Description

Step into a key Electrical Engineering role with a growing EPC organization at the forefront of modular design and power distribution solutions. You’ll work on complex, high-impact projects—often in data center and mission-critical environments—where your designs directly influence reliability, safety, and performance. This is a local Houston opportunity for engineers who want to deepen their power systems expertise while contributing to technically challenging, real-world projects.

About the Role:

You will be responsible for delivering electrical engineering design and analysis for modular EPC projects, with a strong focus on power distribution, low voltage systems, and power systems studies. Working within a multidisciplinary team, you will take designs from concept through detailed engineering, supporting procurement and construction with accurate documentation and technical guidance. Your work will help ensure that projects meet performance, safety, and compliance requirements while staying on schedule and within budget.

Key Responsibilities:

• Develop electrical power distribution designs for modular EPC projects, including single-line diagrams, panel schedules, and equipment layouts.
• Prepare and maintain load lists, data sheets, and RFQ packages for electrical equipment and systems.
• Perform power systems analysis using ETAP, including arc flash, short circuit, coordination, and load flow studies.
• Design low voltage power and control circuits, ensuring compliance with applicable codes, standards, and client specifications.
• Coordinate with multidisciplinary engineering teams (mechanical, structural, process, etc.) to integrate electrical systems into overall project designs.
• Review vendor documents and technical submittals, providing clarification and resolving technical issues with suppliers.
• Support construction and commissioning activities by addressing field queries, resolving design conflicts, and updating as-built documentation.
• Contribute to the development and improvement of electrical engineering standards, templates, and best practices for modular EPC projects.

Key Requirements:

• 2–10 years of electrical engineering experience within EPC or related project environments.
• Proven experience in power distribution design, including medium and low voltage systems for industrial or data center-type facilities.
• Hands-on experience with EPC modular engineering design, including preparation of load lists, data sheets, RFQs, and related documentation.
• Proficiency in low voltage electrical circuit design and power systems analysis, including ETAP-based arc flash and protective device coordination.
• Strong ability to interpret and produce detailed engineering drawings, specifications, and calculations.
• Solid working knowledge of relevant electrical codes and standards (e.g., NEC, IEEE) as applied to industrial or mission-critical facilities.
• Advanced proficiency with Microsoft Office 365 (Outlook, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Teams, SharePoint) and PDF editors (Adobe, Foxit, or equivalent).
• Local to Houston, TX with the ability to work on-site as needed; no sponsorship and no relocation support are available.

Desirable Skills:

• Experience in data center or other mission-critical facilities involving high-reliability power distribution.
• Familiarity with Dialux or similar tools for lighting design and calculations.
• Operational knowledge of SAP (ERP tools with engineering modules and transactions).
• Experience using Autodesk Revit, BIM 360, AutoCAD, and Navisworks for model coordination and design integration.
• Background in modularization strategies and offsite fabrication for electrical systems.

Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or closely related discipline from an accredited institution (required).
• Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering or Power Systems (preferred).
• Professional Engineer (PE) license not required; EIT or progress toward licensure considered an asset.
• Relevant continuing education or training in power systems analysis, ETAP, or arc flash studies is advantageous.
