About Senior Protection and Control Engineer

  Description

  This position will offer you the ability to directly apply your knowledge of protective relaying and controls systems for distribution and high voltage substations. As a Senior Protection & Control Engineer you will primarily prepare protection and control schematics and wiring drawings for a wide range of substation modifications and upgrades to support client requirements. 

  You will be responsible for preparing protective relaying philosophies, including selection of relay, control, and communications equipment, SCADA and telecommunication concepts and configurations, and I/O assignments and connection diagrams. 

  You will work on challenging assignments that include investigating, trouble-shooting, and solving a wide variety of substation protection and control issues.

  You will perform preparations of the designs prepared by others for single line diagrams, substation relaying & metering diagrams (i.e. A.C. schematic diagrams), and D.C. schematic diagrams.

  Perform independent reviews of work performed by others.

  Develop your career via peer-learning through sharing of knowledge with other experienced engineers by way of Sargent & Lundy’s systems of processes and associated “Communities of Practice.” 

  Provide guidance as a mentor in the development of less experienced engineers.

  There is the potential for you to travel to client and vendor offices for design reviews and to plant project site locations for construction coordination and field verification of designs.

  This role offers a hybrid work arrangement. You'll spend 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.
