Provides energy services across multiple states, focusing on clean, reliable, and affordable solutions.
The entry‑engineer level role is designed to develop technical expertise in a specific specialty. Work involves conventional plans, investigations, surveys, structures or equipment with limited complexity and well‑established precedents. The role may lead small‑medium, non‑critical projects or provide field oversight of critical projects under the direction of a higher‑level engineer.
Key responsibilities include applying technical standards and principles, supporting the creation of design and testing documentation, and assisting with procedure development. You will provide technical support for operations, maintenance, testing, diagnostics, and regulatory activities, and may oversee field engineering tasks such as commissioning and inspections. Coordination of project phases—from research and design to procurement, installation, and commissioning—occurs under supervision, as does support for bid evaluation and communication with other business areas.
