Full job description

We're hiring a senior electrical engineer who has actually delivered power generation and gas-to-power projects at a top EPC, PMC, owner-operator, or utility. Think combined cycle, simple cycle and peakers, gas-to-power for data centers and behind-the-meter campuses, LNG, and cogeneration, including the switchyard and grid interconnection.

If your career has been refining or petrochem electrical with no power work, this isn't the right fit.

This is a hands-on role. You'll do real electrical engineering on our delivery work for the parts our software can't handle yet, you'll be the quality check on what the software does produce, and you'll shape where the product goes next. Three jobs in one, and the mix shifts as the product gets better.

- Do real electrical engineering on our FEL-2 and early-phase delivery work, owning the parts our software can't handle yet so projects ship

- Be the quality gate on Candid's automated electrical outputs: catch what's wrong before it reaches a client, and feed it back so the product gets sharper

- Define how electrical scope gets developed and validated through FEED on power and gas-to-power projects, and what "good" looks like

- Review and validate electrical deliverables across early-phase packages: single-lines, load lists, transformer and switchgear sizing, distribution architecture, grounding

- Build repeatable checks that catch inconsistencies across load assumptions, equipment requirements, and package interfaces

- Map where electrical rework happens, why it happens, and what inputs drive it

- Clarify interface points with Mechanical, Process, Instrumentation, and the grid interconnection

- 7+ years at a large scale EPC, PMC, owner-operator, or utility, with most of it on power generation or gas-to-power

- You've personally owned single-line diagram and electrical load list development through FEED

- Strong on power system architecture: GSU and station service transformers, MV/LV switchgear, MCCs, distribution, grounding

- Hands-on with power system study tools: ETAP, SKM PowerTools, EasyPower, PSS/E, or similar (load flow, short circuit, coordination, arc flash)

- Working knowledge of NEC/NFPA 70, IEEE, NESC, NERC, and IEC

- Familiarity with grid interconnection and the switchyard interface

- You spot inconsistencies across load lists, single-lines, and vendor packages fast

- Brownfield tie-ins and constrained or islanded power systems

- Protection and relaying philosophy, or interconnection study experience
