Mid - Level Electrical Engineer
About the role
Position Opening
SMC is actively looking for a Mid-Level Electrical Engineer to execute electrical design for mission critical projects. Typical project types may include design of greenfield and brownfield data center facilities, design of fit-out packages for hyperscale and enterprise clients of colocation providers, data center campus planning, conceptual designs and feasibility studies, and power systems studies such as Neher-McGrath, short circuit, coordination, and arc flash.
This candidate shall be capable of executing basic electrical design projects independently, taking established design criteria through generation of design plans and specifications for permitting and construction. The candidate shall also be capable as serving as a key contributor in part of a larger electrical design team on large and/or complex mission critical projects under the guidance of a senior engineer. The electrical design scope will be a part of a broader project and therefore this candidate should be capable of interfacing with design leads within SMC (mechanical, telecommunications, fire protection, plumbing) as well as externally including architectural, civil, structural, etc.
The ideal candidate will be comfortable mentoring recent graduates and junior designers and engineers, reviewing the work of others, and collaborating with senior engineers to implement broad project goals.
Responsibilities
- Design electrical infrastructure for mission critical buildings and campuses including medium voltage distribution; highly redundant power systems including various redundancy topologies such as distributed and block redundant; on-site generation and UPS backup; typical building systems such as small power, lighting, grounding, and fire alarm.
- Coordinate with all internal and external disciplines for required electrical power connections.
- Coordinate monitoring system interfaces for electrical equipment with controls and telecommunications engineers.
- Be familiar with the basics of electrical power monitoring systems (EPMS).
- Be capable of reviewing and understanding client
