• Perform or review power-system studies and calculations, including short circuit, protective-device coordination, arc flash, load flow, voltage drop, grounding, and equipment sizing; identify and resolve design risks.
• Lead milestone design reviews for technical quality, code compliance, constructability, and completeness; drive design comments, deviations, and engineering changes to timely closure.
• Develop and maintain electrical standards, equipment specifications, design criteria, calculation templates, and review practices; use lessons learned to reduce rework, cost, and schedule risk.
• Review equipment packages, vendor submittals, technical bids, and proposed exceptions against Bloom requirements; partner with Supply Chain and suppliers to resolve gaps.
• Lead technical resolution of complex field, construction, commissioning, and equipment issues, including root-cause analysis and corrective actions when needed.
• Coordinate with remote engineering and drafting teams on design development and AutoCAD deliverables; provide technical direction and mentor engineers and designers.
• Support the Supply Chain Team by reviewing electrical equipment packages and ensuring they meet Bloom's specifications.

• Active Professional Engineer license in at least one U.S. jurisdiction. Ability and willingness to obtain licensure by comity in additional states as project needs require and to serve as Engineer of Record where appropriately licensed.
• Strong design knowledge of low- and medium-voltage systems, switchgear, transformers, grounding, protection and control, inverter-based resources, and grid-connected and islanded operation.
• Working knowledge of the National Electrical Code, applicable NFPA, California Rule 21 and IEEE standards, utility interconnection requirements, and state and local code requirements.
• Experience performing or independently reviewing power-system studies using ETAP, SKM, EasyPower, or equivalent tools.
• Ability to make independent engineering judgments, communicate technical risks clearly, and lead complex issues to closure across functions.
• Experience developing or reviewing technical specifications, drawings, calculations, and design packages and supporting their implementation in the field.
• Must be intuitive and proactive. i.e., think many steps ahead towards the expected outcome and highlight potential risks to the Project Management Team.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
• Ability to excel in a professional environment with a lot of cross functional collaboration.

Preferred experience

• B.S./M.S./Ph.D. in electrical engineering or a related field
• 10+ years relevant work experience with B.S./M.S.
• Relevant experience in power systems engineering, solar, or renewables.
