What You'll Be Doing
Job Scope: Generally responsible for supervision and technical direction over a team of designers including total delivery of the electrical and instrumentation design deliverables and services on time, within performance budget and meeting quality expectations. Duties may include performing advanced design engineering work serving as a technical specialist for complex assignments. Work at this level requires extensive progressive experience in electrical and instrumentation design engineering and involves utilization of project controls for cost control, scheduling and quality of projects. This work will be performed under minimal supervision.
Primary responsibilities will include but not be limited to:
Reviewing and approving all electrical and instrumentation deliverables.
Validating professional services and construction estimates at the onset of projects and tracking changes as the project(s) progresses.
Accomplishing engineering activities such as power systems analysis, construction specifications, material procurement specifications, calculations and estimates.
Producing professional service estimates in accordance with the department standards for project deliverables, project studies and estimates, change notices and for the development of new work through proposal efforts.
Developing conceptual layouts and cost studies as necessary to determine the simplest, most efficient approach to solving engineering tasks at hand.
Establishing the design criteria, incorporating client requirements, estimate and/or scope basis and design basis meeting applicable state, local and federal standards and codes. Ensuring that any requirements for permitting have been established and communicated to the project team.
Maintaining a working knowledge of scope and deliverables. Initiating timely change notices when deviation is made from scope which affects schedule, deliverables or cost of the work.
Planning and organizing the work of the team. Communicating the plan to the team, the project leadership team and the client.
Maintaining control of the project by tracking and maintaining discipline performance budget progress, schedule commitments, and quality standards. Understanding and utilizing project control tools.
Delegating work to designers in proportion to their technical skills and experience, then following up for support to ensure efficient progress and quality.
Consulting with design leaders from other disciplines in proportion to their technical skills and experience, then following up for support to ensure efficient progress and quality.
Producing detail design calculations and sketches for materials of construction associated with the project. Calculations produced will be neatly prepared and organized for efficient checking by others and efficient use by drafters/designers for preparing drawings and as a deliverable when required.
Producing project designs with efficient use of construction materials with an overall emphasis on ease of construction and a completed product which meets the expectations of the client.
Checking calculations made by others to ensure accuracy, conformance to codes, specifications, design criteria and conformance to good engineering practices.
Producing construction specifications.
Monitoring drawings in progress to ensure conformance to design calculations and specifications.
Assisting the design and drafting team in resolving routine layout and detailing problems. Ensuring that sufficient sketches and details are provided for completion of engineering drawings.
Producing bid packages enabling electrical and instrumentation purchase inquiries to be issued for procurement of materials or subcontract pricing.
Complete understanding of the skills and experience required to perform engineering and design functions.
Participating in the planning of training programs, continuous education opportunities and professional development of staff.
