• Electrical installation details

• 3D models and associated design information

Perform and verify electrical design calculations, including:

• Voltage drop

• Lighting levels

• Cable tray fill

• Heat trace wattage

• Populate, maintain, and validate electrical load lists and cable schedules.

• Review existing drawings, field information, and project documentation to identify scope gaps, design constraints, and potential conflicts.

• Develop practical and constructible designs that account for existing facility conditions, operational requirements, and brownfield interfaces.

• Support field verification and incorporate confirmed site conditions into design deliverables.

• Apply digital workflows to prepare, review, communicate, and incorporate design markups and redlines.

• Review layouts and drawing packages for scope alignment, technical accuracy, constructability, consistency, and presentation quality.

• Maintain design integrity and quality control across assigned deliverables.

• Coordinate electrical and controls requirements across instrumentation, process, piping, mechanical, civil, and structural disciplines.

• Support 3D model development, model reviews, and multidisciplinary design coordination.

• Contribute to design reviews by identifying coordination concerns and recommending practical solutions.

• Communicate progress, information requirements, technical risks, and schedule constraints clearly and proactively.

• Support projects through design development, construction, commissioning, and field execution.

• Manage deliverables across multiple small to mid-sized projects while meeting quality and schedule expectations.

What you must have:

• Diploma in Electrical Engineering Technology or a related discipline. A Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering may be considered when accompanied by relevant hands-on electrical design experience.

• 8+ years of electrical design experience within an EPC, EPCM, or engineering consulting environment in the Oil & Gas industry.

• Demonstrated design experience in both electrical power and controls systems. Candidates may have greater depth in one area, but practical project experience in both is required.

• Proficiency with digital design, drawing review, and markup workflows using AutoCAD, Bluebeam, or comparable engineering software.

• Experience coordinating design work within multidisciplinary engineering teams.

• Strong attention to detail, technical problem-solving ability, and written and verbal communication skills.

• Ability to take ownership of assigned deliverables while recognizing when technical guidance or review is required.

Nice to have:

• Experience supporting compressor stations, pump stations, meter stations, or pipeline facilities.

• Experience using Elecdes software.

• Experience with 3D modelling and multidisciplinary model coordination.

Experience using data-centric or database-driven engineering design workflows, such as:

• SmartPlant

• Intergraph applications

• Microsoft Access

• Power BI

Skills and Attributes:

• A self-directed designer who can progress assigned work with limited supervision.

• Technically curious and motivated to continue developing their design expertise.

• Clear and effective communicator who collaborates well across disciplines.

• Highly detail-oriented, with a strong commitment to design quality and accuracy.

• Organized and comfortable managing several deadlines and shifting priorities.

• Proactive in identifying scope gaps, design conflicts, technical risks, and information requirements.

• Accountable for assigned deliverables and reliable in communicating progress or constraints.

• Comfortable working in a fast-paced, project-driven environment.

• Focused on developing practical, safe, and constructible solutions for operating facilities.
