Gain experience in coordinating conflicting utilities and other field engineering design requirements, assessing and developing large design packages for complex cable/conduit projects in dense urban environments, work permit development, easements, and ROW applications
Be comfortable in both a field and office setting: the role may require local or regional customer‑site visits to collect field data that will assist in developing work packages
What Sets You Apart (Background Requirements)

Bachelor of Science in Engineering discipline (Electrical, Mechanical, Civil, or Industrial) from an ABET accredited institution; additional relevant experience/certifications may be considered in lieu of bachelor's degree.
Experience and demonstrated proficiency with the National Electric Safety Code (NESC).
Some prior experience with structural analysis, guying calculations, cable pulling calculations, coordination of protective devices, and electric demand and fault current calculations.
Ability to provide your own reliable transportation, as some local or regional customer‑related travel is anticipated (Job‑related travel will be reimbursed at IRS‑approved rates).
Ability to demonstrate strong written, verbal and interpersonal communications skills.
You Might Also Have Some Previous Experience With
Providing estimated costs, development of a BOM, calculating the CIAC.
Design tools such as Pole Foreman, Pull Planner, and Katapult.
Work management software and job estimating software.
CAD or MicroStation – performing Electrical Distribution design.
