E&I Technical Specialist

Description

• Producing estimate level preliminary designs and material take-offs suitable for the level of the estimate being performed on a project.
• Provide technical guidance to less experienced drafting and engineering personnel in the department.
• Reviewing and checking vendor drawings and other discipline drawings for electrical/instrumentation input.
• Consulting with design leaders from other disciplines to ensure the smooth flow of vital information necessary for the scheduled completion of the project.
• Advising the senior engineer concerning design or scope changes, which have been identified.
• Assisting other engineers in developing and assembling scopes, drawings and specifications into a “package”, enabling electrical/instrumentation purchase inquiries to be issued for procurement of materials or subcontract pricing.
• Produce installation details, motor control center single lines, electric room layouts, motor control elementaries, connection diagrams, cable schedules, control panel layouts and grounding, lighting, power and instrumentation plans under general supervision.
• Developing small work sharing packages for interoffice execution support
• Producing designs with efficient use of construction materials with an overall emphasis on ease of construction and completed product meeting the expectations of the client.
• Checking calculations and deliverables made by others to ensure accuracy, conformance to codes, specifications, design criteria and conformance to good engineering practice.
• Developing conceptual layouts and cost studies as necessary to determine the simplest, most efficient approach to solving engineering tasks at hand.
• Recognize and communicate scope and design changes promptly.
• Applying advanced engineering techniques and analysis to complex designs.
• Performing fieldwork necessary to gather field data, check tie-ins and provide construction support.
• Reviewing fabrication drawings and other construction submittals for conformance to engineering drawings and specifications.
• Assisting the drafting group in resolving routine layout and detailing problems. It is your responsibility to furnish sufficient sketches and details necessary for completion of engineering drawings.
• Producing detail design calculations and sketches for materials of construction associated with the project. Calculations produced will be neatly prepared and organized for efficient checking by others and efficient use by drafters/designers for preparing drawings and as a deliverable when required.
• Developing construction specifications.

• Ability to determine motor control center loading.
• Knowledge of the discipline specific methods, practices and techniques required to engineer, design and construct process and manufacturing projects.
• Virtual team skills and cross divisional relationships are developed and able to provide interoffice execution support with general supervision.
• Knowledge and application of the current version of the National Electrical Code (NEC).
• Familiarity with specifications and installation details of construction bulk materials and equipment.
• Ability to develop equipment specifications for equipment such as motor control centers, variable frequency drivers, induction and synchronous motors, load center unit substations.
• Ability to create accurate electrical installation documents from the information found on vendor equipment drawings.
• Ability to route conduit and cable tray.
• Ability to determine load center unit substation loading.
• Ability to determine construction material quantities.
• Familiarity with and utilizing department design and drafting standards.
• Ability to perform voltage drop calculations.
• Knowledge and understanding of schedule constraints and information requirements for the production of all electrical deliverables.
• Ability to calculate tray and conduit fill.

Benefits
