Full Job Description
**A DAY IN THE LIFE** As a **Senior Electrical Engineer,** you’ll lead the electrical design and technical development of utility-scale energy projects while supporting both preconstruction and proposal efforts. You’ll spend time reviewing client RFPs, developing conceptual and detailed electrical designs, evaluating third-party engineering proposals, and identifying technical risks and opportunities that impact project cost, constructability, and execution. Throughout the day, you'll collaborate closely with estimators, CAD designers, supply chain teams, and engineering partners to ensure proposals are accurate, competitive, and aligned with client requirements. Projects may include battery energy storage systems (BESS), substations, underground collection systems, SCADA and communication networks, transmission lines, and solar PV infrastructure. In addition to technical design work, you'll mentor engineers, provide guidance on engineering standards and best practices, and help manage multiple projects and proposal deadlines in a fast-paced environment. **STEP INTO THE ROLE** * Reads and understands the electrical scope of projects that are in RFP/estimating phase. Develops a plan/design that incorporates power quality, reliability, cost efficiency, and Blattner Energy lessons learned into each proposal. * Directs a team that generates design drawings and documents for the Estimators and Supply Chain to bid. Ensures takeoffs are complete and accurate. * Coordinate with other Senior Engineers to establish plans for resources and design schedules on project designs. * Performs drawing reviews of 3rd party engineering firms design packages to ensure designs meet industry and Blattner’s standards and best practices. * Ensures that designs support safe work practices and comply with all applicable safety standards including NESC, NEC, and NFPA. **WHAT YOU’LL NEED** * Bachelor’s degree in electrical or mechanical engineering, or related field from an ABET accredited coll
