Electrical Engineer

The Opportunity: 

What if you could use your engineering skills to help build the roadmap to higher energy and climate resilience for the Department of Defense? As an electrical engineer focusing on energy system evaluation, you understand the intricacy involved with developing innovative solutions that are able to effectively integrate with existing complex electrical systems. That knowledge is key when it comes to identifying vulnerabilities in the infrastructure that serves critical missions and establishing energy resilience solutions that work toward both enhancing mission assurance and incorporating carbon pollution-free technologies. We’re looking for an engineer to aid in these efforts who has a background in power systems and who can provide meaningful insight into electrical system assessment, development, and improvement projects. 

 

Our team supports the Department of Defense in its efforts to provide mission readiness through energy resilience. Mission readiness includes not only the personnel that support critical platforms but also the vehicles that support force projection. The transition from fossil fuel light duty vehicles to hybrid and electric is imperative to meeting Defense goals. The team you'll join specializes in identifying energy resilience gaps, then proposing and developing energy projects that meet mission requirements to fill those gaps. That’s why we need you, an electrical engineer with experience in energy system evaluation and project development to help us provide recommendations on how to make energy systems more reliable, and eventually, change the way the Department of Defense makes energy decisions. The candidate will be working with military installations to evaluate energy vulnerabilities and propose projects relating to all aspects of energy and climate resiliency, including electrical, mechanical, water, fuel, and communications, to assure that critical systems meet their respective requirements. You’ll also directly impact the energy sector by exploring the possibility of utilizing renewable energy over traditional generation types. This is a chance to use your problem-solving skills while gaining experience in Defense and installation energy. Join us and take on exciting challenges in the Department of Defense as we transform the definition of resilience. This position will require travel between 25-50% of the time to military installations. 

 

You Have:

  • 3+ years of experience with engineering application 

  • Experience with power systems design and engineering practices 

  • Experience with energy infrastructure, including electrical transmission and distribution systems, microgrids, and renewable technologies, such as solar, wind, and geothermal

  • Experience with requirement development and analysis in projects pertaining to complex energy systems  

  • Ability to contribute constructive engineering recommendations for system development, improvement, optimization, or support efforts

  • Ability to travel between 25-50% of the time 

  • Ability to obtain a security clearance 

  • Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Physics, or Mathematics 

 

Nice If You Have:

  • Experience with assessing the condition of energy infrastructure, including age, quality, quantity, and vulnerability 

  • Experience with designing, building, installing, or maintaining electrical equipment 

  • Experience in working with the Federal government and Department of Defense 

  • Knowledge of NFPA 70, IEEE, UFC, and UFGS standards

  • Ability to communicate effectively with a variety of client stakeholders and synthesize the information gathered 

  • EIT Certification 

 

Clearance: 

Applicants selected will be subject to a security investigation and may need to meet eligibility requirements for access to classified information.
