risk.Capital Projects & EngineeringLead planning, design, estimating, procurement, construction, and commissioning of electrical infrastructure and facilities capital projects.Develop electrical scopes of work, technical specifications, RFQs, cost estimates, and bid evaluations in coordination with Purchasing.Review engineering drawings, one-lines, calculations, equipment submittals, and contractor designs for compliance with site standards and applicable codes.Coordinate contractors and engineering consultants with focus on safety, technical quality, cost, schedule, and system reliability.Plan and coordinate electrical outages, system switching, construction phasing, and production disruptions.Perform construction inspections and recommend design modifications when field conditions warrant.Lead commissioning and acceptance of new or modified electrical systems, including verification of testing, protection settings, equipment documentation, and as-built drawings prior to turnover.Maintain project records including budgets, contracts, change orders, drawings, specifications, meeting records, invoices, purchase orders, and commissioning documentation.Lead final project walk-through, punch-list resolution, customer acceptance, and turnover to operations and maintenance.QualificationsRequired QualificationsBachelor of Science degree in Electrical Engineering from an accredited engineering program.Minimum 5 years of progressively responsible electrical engineering experience in industrial, manufacturing, utility, or large commercial power-distribution systems.Demonstrated professional experience with high-, medium-, and low-voltage electrical power distribution systems, including substations, transformers, switchgear, circuit breakers, protective relays, and grounding systems.Project-management experience involving electrical infrastructure design, construction, and commissioning.Experience reviewing or performing short-circuit, protective-device coordination, load-flow, and arc-flash/incident-energy studies.Working knowledge of NFPA 70/NEC, NFPA 70E, OSHA electrical-safety requirements, and IEEE 1584.Knowledge of South Carolina building and electrical codes and applicable facility standards.Ability to read, interpret, and maintain electrical one-line diagrams, protective-device settings, electrical specifications, and engineering calculations.Experience planning and coordinating electrical outages and infrastructure construction.Strong analytical and root-cause problem-solving skills.Ability to independently manage multiple technical projects and priorities.Strong verbal and written communication skills with ability to convey electrical risks to both technical and nontechnical stakeholders.Preferred QualificationsProfessional Engineer (PE) license or Engineer-in-Training (EIT) certification.Experience with electrical power-system analysis software such as ETAP, EasyPower, or SKM
