Essential Responsibilities

• Identify, develop, evaluate, introduce, and manage engineering solutions for EPDS.
• Apply electrical circuit and electro-magnetic theory, mathematical modeling, and simulation to design electrical systems with desired behaviors including power flow balance across modes of operation, setting of boundaries, optimization, coordination within and across voltage levels, and understanding complex systems of systems.
• Prepare EPDS designs for AC and DC electric systems, components, and equipment such as main generator plus unit and reserve auxiliary transformers with their interface to distribution and transmission grid, isolation phase bus duct, medium, and low voltage circuit breakers and disconnect switches with their trip units, digital protective relays, switchgear, switchboards, load or power centers, motor control centers, lighting and power service panels, cable and wire, building and containment penetrations, conduit, ducts, raceway, tray, grounding, lightning, and cathodic protection, motors, adjustable speed drives, batteries, chargers, inverters, uninterruptible power supplies, contactors, switches, relays, etc.
• Prepare and maintain using data-centric digital tools with rigorous requirements, change control, and configuration management:
  • Static documents or reports, specifications, databases, tabular lists of functions, sizing calculations, equipment and instrument characteristics and configurations, electrical and heat loads, physical layout or placement in rooms, buildings, structures, etc.
  • Static diagrams or drawings of context or functional block, one or single line, three-line, relay coordination, electrical schematic, inter-connection wiring, etc.
  • Dynamic physics based and electrical simulation design and analysis [e.g., ETAP] models.
• Collaborate with other disciplines to define and achieve functional, performance, reliability, availability, and maintainability (RAM) goals using failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA), probabilistic risk analysis (PRA), and related modern techniques.
• Prepare detailed work plans covering scope, labor budget, and schedule.
• Ensure deliverables are on-spec., on-budget, and on-schedule.
• Support LEAN, continuous process improvement, and cost-out programs.

Minimum Qualifications
