Full Job Description

Description:

As a Substation Engineer, this position will offer you the opportunity to utilize and expand your academic background in engineering.

You will work on project teams with other engineers involved in the design of new high voltage and extra-high voltage substations and transmission systems.
You will be involved in power transmission designs and the preparation of specifications for the procurement of major electrical power equipment and related installation services.
There is the potential for you to travel to client and vendor offices for design reviews and to site locations for construction coordination and field verification of designs.

This role offers a hybrid work arrangement, with the expectation of spending three days a week in the office, giving you the flexibility to work remotely for two days.

Dependent upon your location, this opportunity offers a generous relocation package.

Qualifications:

We do not sponsor employees for work authorization in the U.S. for this position.

Essential skills and experience:

This position requires a Bachelor of Science engineering degree with strong preference in an Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace or Chemical Engineering degree, and/or coursework including Coding, 3D Modeling/Design, and experience using agentic AI.
An understanding of the practical application of electrical engineering and technology including applying systems, principles, techniques, and procedures to a project design.
Knowledge of design techniques, tools and principles involved in production of technical plans, blueprints, drawings, and models with the ability to visualize parts in 3D without the aid of a computer.
Proficiency with MS Office applications.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills.

Valued but not required skills and experience:

BSEE, MSEE, or equivalent degree from an ABET accredited engineering program.
Successful completion of the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) exam, and designation as an Engineer in Training.
Familiarity in designing or developing AI applications and/or agents.
Related engineering internship or co-op work experience.
Familiarity in designing or developing AI applications and/or agents.

AI & Automation at Sargent & Lundy:

In this role, we expect people to be willing or able to solve problems using modern tools:

You are expected to take engineering problems from issue to solution using data and modern tools such as automation and AI to improve workflows, reduce rework, and deliver cost-effective designs.
Many engineers in these roles build or use automation to create calculations, summarize technical documents, or draft design documentation, including appropriate use of agentic AI tools, with strong engineering judgment and verification of results.
Programming or scripting (e.g., Python, MATLAB, advanced Excel) to automate calculations, design checks, reporting, or data transformation is valued but not required.
We also value additional learning, such as a minor, certificate, or other training in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Software Engineering, or related fields that helps you apply automation or agentic AI to real engineering problems.

Award-Winning Benefits:

At Sargent & Lundy, we care about the health and well-being of our employees. Our commitment extends beyond the workplace, offering comprehensive healthcare plans and generous paid time off to support our team members in every aspect of their lives. We understand the importance of work-life balance, which is why we are proud to provide competitive, award-winning benefits.
