Electrical Engineer designing and commissioning temporary power and energy systems for clients in various settings. Responsible for equipment design, technical support, and project involvement in diverse environments.
Responsibilities
Use mandatory codes, industry consensus standards, and relevant experience to design safe, reliable, economical, and efficient electrical power generation and distribution systems that fit our clients’ needs.
Help the sales team secure contracts by visiting client project sites, giving technical sales presentations, analyzing the clients’ needs, problems, or requests for proposals, and crafting creative cost-effective solutions.
Manage the design and procurement of new power generation and distribution equipment, including creating conceptual layouts, schematics, and bills of material, and review and provide feedback for upgrades and other products including electric air compressors, chillers, and cooling towers.
Provide technical support to technicians and customers by phone and in person at Aggreko’s service centers and jobs sites.
Help to install and commission systems, including but not limited to pulling and terminating power cables, performing insulation resistance and turns ratio testing of transformers, determining protective relay settings, and troubleshooting switchgear, automatic voltage regulators, variable frequency drives, motor starters, and PLCs.
This routinely includes climbing ladders, lifting and carrying loads of 50 lbs, and sometimes includes working in remote environments.
Perform light drafting duties using AutoCAD to create and modify single-line diagrams, location plans, grounding plans, schematics, and wiring diagrams.
Think outside the box to create new equipment designs and to create new and more efficient applications utilizing existing hardware.
Analyze test data and reports to determine if design meets functional and performance specifications.
Inspect equipment and systems for electrical code and safety deficiencies.
Continue to learn advanced engineering practices and keep abreast of technical changes and developments in industry consensus standards.
Use computer engineering and design software (ETAP) to perform engineering studies, including load flow, short-circuit, protective device selection and coordination, motor starting, transient stability, arc-flash, and grounding electrode systems.
Review, provide comments, and approve engineering deliverables produced by your colleagues.
Provide mentorship to lesser-experienced engineers and technicians.
Travel 25% of the time, be able to travel to other US states, Canada, Mexico, and some Caribbean islands, and be involved with projects in a variety of settings, including refineries, chemical plants, utility substations, construction sites, mines, automotive factories, rock concerts, yacht shows, golf tournaments, and fossil fuel, nuclear, wind, and PV power stations.
