About the Role
A DAY IN THE LIFE As a Lead Electrical Engineer – Gas Power Generation, you'll lead the electrical engineering execution of utility-scale gas power generation projects from proposal development through construction and commissioning. You'll provide technical leadership across electrical engineering activities while establishing engineering standards, mentoring engineers, and ensuring designs are safe, reliable, constructible, and compliant with industry codes and client requirements. Your day may involve collaborating with Owners, Engineers of Record (EOR), Project Engineering, Estimating, Integrated Supply Chain, Construction, and equipment manufacturers to develop electrical system designs, review engineering packages, coordinate utility interconnections, and resolve complex technical challenges across multiple concurrent projects. Projects may include gas turbine facilities, reciprocating engine power plants, simple–cycle, and combined-cycle facilities, substations, switchyards, transmission infrastructure, balance of plant systems, and utility interconnections. STEP INTO THE ROLE Lead the electrical engineering execution of utility-scale gas power generation projects from estimating through construction support and project closeout. Develop preliminary electrical designs for proposals, incorporating power quality, system reliability, constructability, cost efficiency, and Blattner best practices.
