Overview At Jacobs, we’re challenging today to reinvent tomorrow by solving the world’s most critical problems for thriving cities, resilient environments, mission-critical outcomes, operational advancement, scientific discovery and cutting-edge manufacturing, turning abstract ideas into realities that transform the world for good.
The energy industry is undergoing rapid and dramatic changes, transforming the utility landscape to enhance reliability and sustainability. Jacobs is expanding its Energy & Power Solutions team to tackle the complexities of energy resiliency with drivers such as artificial intelligence and the electrification of infrastructure expected to create exponential load growth for power utilities across North America. We seek an experienced electrical engineering discipline lead to take a leading role working closely with our clients as well as internal sales and operations teams as we expand our energy transition portfolio.
This opening provides the opportunity to engage with our clients, evaluate their energy needs, develop concept-level plans and solutions, then take these through detailed design to provide for full execution of the solution. We offer and deliver a true “end to end” life-cycle service from exploration, development, operation, and repowering/retirement.
Responsibilities Your primary responsibilities will require strong leadership experience for large teams of electrical engineers undertaking detailed engineering studies, modelling, and design for utility scale power generation assets. You will collaborate with our Technical Leadership, Operations, Client Account Managers and sales professionals on pursuits of strategic importance to the firm. You’ll be expected to deliver work with remote and diverse teams across geographies and cultures. Successful candidates will have a demonstrated ability to anticipate challenges and manage “up and out” while supporting large teams responsible for design and managing complex electrical plant delivery.

Bachelor’s or Advanced Degree in Electrical Engineering, Electrical Power Engineering or related engineering discipline
At least 10 years of electrical engineering design and consulting experience working with EPC firms, utilities, independent power producers, large scale consultants, OEMs, or Developers in utility scale gas generation plant design delivery.
Proven ability to manage projects with complex scopes and multi-disciplinary teams, with design schedule duration between 6 months and 2 years, and engineering fees over $10M.
Proven ability to engage with clients, develop relationships and win work, and then deliver innovative solutions providing value to both the client and provider.
Ability to work independently on a large array of tasks while providing guidance and mentorship to junior staff.
Demonstrated ability for higher level strategic, exploration, concept, and development planning for new project opportunities, including knowledge and application of new and emerging technologies.
Demonstrated skills on concept and developed design optimization programs to guide sound technical guidance for decision making.
Strong communication and technical writing skills.
Other Highly Regarded Qualifications and Experience Include
Professional Engineering License
Power distribution systems and microgrids
Power generation projects exceeding 100MW capacity
HV or MV Substations
Gas Power Utility scale projects including simple cycle, combined cycle and other arrangements
Energy storage systems
Power system modeling experience using SKM Power Tools, ETAP or similar modeling software
Protection and Control, DCS or power system automation
Thermal utility plants and distribution systems (steam, hot water, chilled water)
