Substation Design Engineer (Drafter) – Physical / P&C | United States / Canada (Remote)

Physical Design OR Protection & Controls

Location: Remote – U.S. or Canada

Compensation: $110,000 – $140,000 USD (Senior $170,000 USD) + Bonus + ESOP

We’re partnering with a rapidly growing, employee-owned engineering consultancy that’s expanding its High Voltage Substation Engineering team across the U.S. and Canada.

Physical Substation Design

We’re looking for experience producing some combination of:

  • General arrangements and substation layouts
  • Equipment plans, elevations and section drawings
  • Grounding plans and details
  • Conduit, cable trench and raceway layouts
  • Bus and equipment layouts
  • Foundation/steel coordination
  • 3D substation models
  • AutoCAD and/or Inventor
  • Substation Design Suite (SDS), particularly P4A/P4I, is a plus

Protection & Controls Design

We’re looking for experience producing some combination of:

  • One-line and three-line diagrams
  • AC/DC schematics
  • Protection and control schematics
  • Relay and control panel layouts
  • Wiring and connection diagrams
  • Cable schedules
  • Complete P&C drawing packages
  • AutoCAD Electrical or similar CAD software

What We’re Looking For

You could come from an engineering, design, or drafting background. More important than your current title is your ability to produce high-quality substation design deliverables yourself.

Ideally, you’ll have 3+ years of relevant substation design experience and exposure to medium- or high-voltage substations. Experience with utility, renewable energy, BESS, or transmission projects is beneficial.

Why Join?

  • Fully remote across the U.S. & Canada
  • Employee-owned company (ESOP)
  • Annual bonus
  • Rapidly growing HV engineering team
  • Work directly alongside experienced engineers and EORs
  • Opportunity to progress from hands-on design into greater engineering responsibility
  • Utility, transmission, renewable energy and BESS projects
  • Strong long-term career progression
