Senior Project Engineering Manager, Substation

A top-ranked power engineering consultancy is hiring a senior project engineering manager to lead multidiscipline substation project teams across a growing portfolio of design and EPC work, including newer data centre and renewables-integration programs.

Demand across this region has outpaced the team's current leadership bench, which is exactly why this seat exists. You'd inherit a live portfolio spanning core utility work plus the newer data centre and renewables-integration programs, not build one from a standing start.

Responsibilities

• Lead multidiscipline engineering and technical teams delivering substation and switchyard projects for investor-owned utility clients
• Own project budget, schedule, and quality across design-services and EPC engagements
• Act as engineering lead of record, coordinating design disciplines and reviewing team output
• Serve as the client's primary technical point of contact, supporting proposals and business development

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in engineering plus 11+ years in utility substation project delivery
• Strong grasp of substation layout, protection & controls, and civil/structural coordination across the full project lifecycle
• Track record managing EPC or design-services substation projects for investor-owned utilities in the US
• Confident client-facing communicator, comfortable driving business-development conversations

Benefits

• A real step from senior engineer into practice and technical leadership, not a title change
• Full medical, dental, and vision coverage, employer-matched retirement, and tuition reimbursement
• An annual performance bonus on top of base pay
• Paid time off, and a flexible hybrid schedule after your first 90 days
• The backing of a Top-10 nationally ranked ENR power engineering firm
