Full job description

In this role, we're seeking a highly skilled Senior Protection Engineer with expertise in relay settings, protection and control (PandC), and system coordination to join our Power Delivery team. You'll play a critical role in the development, implementation, and validation of protective relaying systems for substations, transmission lines, distribution feeders, and generation interconnects. You'll also lead protection studies, coordinate closely with field personnel and clients, and drive excellence across all aspects of relay protection - from logic diagrams to final settings and commissioning support. Your Responsibilities will Include: * Develop and review protection and coordination studies for utility systems ranging from 5kV to 500kV. * Calculate and implement relay settings using vendor tools (SEL AcSELerator, GE EnerVista, etc.). * Analyze short circuit, arc flash, and protection coordination studies using software such as ASPEN OneLiner, CAPE, ETAP, or SKM. * Generate native configuration files for protective relays (SEL, GE Multilin, etc.). * Create and review protection and control drawings, including one-lines, three-lines, AC/DC schematics, logic diagrams, and panel wiring. Technical Leadership and Project Oversight * Lead engineering efforts across all project phases-from kickoff to final commissioning-for multiple utility and industrial clients. * Mentor and provide technical direction to junior engineers and designers. * Oversee QA/QC processes for deliverables including relay settings, studies, and PandC design packages. * Coordinate with cross-functional teams (SCADA, communications, substation design, civil/structural) to ensure design alignment. * Support commissioning efforts, including analysis of event reports, logic testing, and field troubleshooting. Client and Stakeholder Engagement * Serve as a technical point of contact with clients, vendors, and internal stakeholders. * Present protection philosophies, study results, and technical recommendations to engineering managers and client leadership. * Develop clear, detailed technical documentation and study reports for regulatory and operational use. Education and Years of Experience: * Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering (BSEE) from an accredited university. * 5+ years of hands-on experience in system protection and relay settings within TandD environments. * Professional Engineer (PE) license, or ability to obtain one within a reasonable time. To Thrive in This Role, You Will Need: * Proficient in protective relay principles, power system protection coordination, and substation protection schemes. * Strong working knowledge of SEL and GE Multilin relay platforms and associated software tools. * Knowledge of relay loadability, breaker failure schemes, CT sizing, and SEL logic elements (SELOGIC). * Experience with short circuit and coordination modeling software (e.g., ASPEN, CAPE, ETAP, or SKM). * Ability to read and interpret protection single-line diagrams, schematics, and wiring diagrams. * Experience applying protection for key system components: transformers, buses, lines, feeders, capacitor/reactor banks, etc. * Strong organizational and time management skills with the ability to manage multiple active projects. * 8+ years of experience in protective relaying and coordination for substations and TandD networks. * Familiarity with IEC 61850 protocols, logic implementation, and digital substation communication schemes. * Understanding...
