Senior Electrical Engineer

Description

This role offers the opportunity to provide expert technical guidance and hands-on engineering leadership for nuclear plant operations. The ideal candidate will lead the installation, testing, troubleshooting, and commissioning of electrical and I&C systems for power generation projects, combining deep technical knowledge with on-site oversight.

• Work closely with start-up teams to ensure proper operation of gas turbines, steam turbines, HRSG controls, and balance-of-plant systems.
• Deliver expert technical support for engineering analysis, program development, and implementation.
• Conduct independent research and technical reviews to support ongoing programs.
• Lead commissioning efforts for electrical and I&C systems, including cold/hot loop checks, system energization, instrument calibration, functional tests, and generator synchronization with protection relay verification.
• Provide comprehensive electrical and I&C engineering support, including high- and low-voltage power distribution, generator protection, DCS, PLCs, SCADA, and field instrumentation.
• Offer guidance to resolve equipment and system challenges efficiently.
• Oversee engineering projects from concept to completion, ensuring accurate configuration management.
• Apply engineering principles to assigned tasks, ensuring alignment with design criteria, codes, and industry standards.
• Review and validate design drawings, wiring diagrams, single-line diagrams, and control logic.
• Evaluate vendor documentation for electrical and I&C equipment and collaborate with OEMs.
• Guide site construction teams on installation practices, cable routing, terminations, grounding, and loop checks.
• Recommend equipment, design improvements, or techniques to enhance performance, reduce costs, and meet regulatory requirements.
• Ensure compliance with design specifications, safety codes (NEC, IEEE, IEC), and QA/QC standards.

Requirements

• 5–10 years of experience in electrical and I&C engineering within power generation, including a minimum of 5 years in field construction/commissioning of gas turbine or combined cycle plants.
• Proficiency in interpreting and troubleshooting P&IDs, loop drawings, and electrical schematics.
• Bachelor’s Degree in Electrical Engineering, Instrumentation, Control Systems, or a related discipline (Master’s preferred).
