Job description
Powertech’s High Voltage Laboratory is the largest of its kind on the west coast of North America, supporting distribution‑to transmission‑level testing for utilities, manufacturers, and infrastructure owners. Our work is hands‑on, fast‑paced, and directly connected to real‑world power systems.

We are looking for a Junior Electrical Engineer (EIT) who enjoys working in a lab environment, pays strong attention to detail, and is excited to learn through hands‑on testing. This is an excellent opportunity for an early‑career engineer who wants exposure to high‑voltage equipment, real projects, and experienced technical team.

Assist with test planning, proposal development, and cost estimates, working with applicable IEEE, IEC, CSA, and ANSI standards.

Work on multiple projects at the same time, coordinating with technicians, engineers, and clients to meet schedules and milestones.

Participate in hands‑on testing, troubleshooting, and resolving technical issues during test execution.

Apply engineering fundamentals to problem‑solving, analysis, and continuous improvement.

Support failure analysis investigations under supervision of senior engineers and contribute to accurate test results and reporting.

Help maintain and improve lab equipment, processes, and safety practices.

Communicate clearly with internal teams, clients, and suppliers, asking questions early and escalating issues when needed.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys being in the lab, on the floor, and close to the work, not just behind a desk.
