Description

Overview

AtkinsRéalis is expanding our Hydropower team in Newfoundland to support a series of nationbuilding projects and hydropower refurbishments that help keep Canada's'electrical grid reliable for decades to come. Working within a multidisciplinary team, you will develop design packages for hydroelectric balanceofplant systems including high/medium/ low voltage systems, and support project delivery from conceptual design through construction support and commissioning as required. This role is based out of St. Johns office and offers a hybrid working environment, with travel to project sites as required.

Your role

• Prepare conceptual and detailed designs for hydroelectric Balance of Plant (BoP) electrical systems, including medium and high voltage systems, station service AC/DC distribution systems, motor controls, grounding systems, MV/LV cable systems, cable tray systems, and associated equipment layouts.
• Perform, coordinate, and review electrical engineering studies including protection coordination, short circuit, load flow, grounding, and arc flash analyses using ETAP (or equivalent), and document study results.
• Develop technical specifications and design packages for major electrical equipment including MV switchgear, generator circuit breakers, LV station service equipment, generator stepup transformers, isolatedphase bus (IPB), and highvoltage AIS/GIS systems.
• Prepare engineering drawings and documentation including single line diagrams, relay and metering onelines, AC threeline diagrams, elementary schematics, wiring diagrams, bills of materials, cable schedules, and related design deliverables.
• Coordinate instrumentation and control interfaces and support electrical deliverables for auxiliary plant systems such as lighting, fire alarm, security/access control, HVAC electrical interfaces, and other building services.
• Support project delivery activities including estimating, proposal development, conceptual design studies, field reviews, RFIs, contractor coordination, commissioning support, and timely resolution of site issues.
• Maintain complete project documentation and ensure compliance with AtkinsRéalis Safety, Environmental, Quality Assurance, and Quality Control requirements throughout all phases of project execution.

Requirements

About you

• University degree in Electrical Engineering and Professional Engineer (P.Eng.) designation.
  715 years of experience in electrical design within the power generation and/or utility/ or industrial sectors, and hydropower experience considered an asset.
• Working knowledge of applicable North American electrical codes and standards, including CSA, IEEE, and ANSI.
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office; experience with AutoCAD and/or Revit is considered an asset.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, ability to work effectively in multidisciplinary teams, and willingness to work in a hybrid environment with occasional travel to project sites as required.
