Position Summary
Bechtel is looking for a Senior Electrical Engineer who has extensive experience with planning and executing greenfield or brownfield projects ideally in one of the following: natural gas processing, coal, gas or biomass to chemicals, petrochemicals, carbon capture and sequestration, solar and/or combined cycle power plants, hydrogen value chain, offshore and onshore pipelines, desalination, raw water, demineralised water and wastewater treatment plants, and has familiarity with current process technologies and licensors associated with the above.
The role has a range of responsibilities and will focus on planning, scheduling, and conducting evaluations, selections, applications, and adaptations of engineering techniques, procedures, and criteria in one discipline in a project or staff group. It requires coordinating detailed phases of engineering work, preparing conceptual studies, designs, reports or proposals, and assisting with cost estimates, quantity take‑offs and staffing requirements.
Key Responsibilities
* Plans, schedules, and conducts independent work in the evaluation, selection, application and adaptation of engineering techniques.
* Performs work that involves conventional engineering practice but may include complex features such as resolving conflicting design requirements, unsuitability of conventional materials and/or difficult coordination requirements.
* Uses standard application programs and appropriate 2‑D and 3‑D computer‑aided design and computer‑aided engineering (CAD and CAE) tools.
* Plans, coordinates or prepares equipment or work specifications, bid evaluations and award recommendations for equipment.
* Prepares and/or assists in the preparation of cost estimates, quantity take‑offs and staffing requirements for proposals, forecasts and change orders.
* Reviews bid analyses and makes recommendations.
* Performs electrical systems studies and electrical calculations.
* Conducts problem analysis and original design, using conventional approaches to solve technical problems encountered. Coordinates engineering efforts in assigned areas between specialty and other engineering groups, with clients, suppliers and contractors.
* Provides technical direction and assigns work to subordinate engineers, designers, drafters, technicians and others who assist in performing specific assignments.
* Plans and conducts independent work within a global business unit, devising new approaches to solving problems.
* Manages the work of a small group of engineers.
Skills and Qualifications
* A recognised degree in a job‑related engineering or scientific discipline from an accredited college or university, or a professional licence in an appropriate engineering discipline from a recognised licensing board, or sufficient relevant courses to meet job requirements.
* Practical work experience in design engineering or equivalent experience in all types of engineering, demonstrating competence as a trained engineer.
* Thorough knowledge of engineering techniques, the design of engineered systems, and engineering and design calculations.
* Understanding of industry or regulatory codes and standards and design criteria pertinent to the particular engineering discipline.
* Broad knowledge of the application of engineering to plant constructability as applied to construction methods and materials.
* Understanding of standard engineering work planning, scheduling and cost estimating.
* Knowledge of current computer applications for engineering and design, including 2‑D and 3‑D CAD, CAE and relevant standard computer applications.
* Understanding of engineering planning and control methods, including computerized methods.
* Understanding of the roles played by other departments on projects, including basic construction practices and the economics involved.
* Working knowledge of precedents in the specialty area, the principles and practices of related technical areas and coordinating work with other technical disciplines.
* Ability to develop innovative ideas to reduce project total installed costs (TIC).
* Ability to present technical design issues to customers and suppliers, and recommend solutions based on knowledge and experience.
* UK Chartered Engineer registration is strongly preferred.
* Previous experience on FEEDs or project proposals is required.
* Experience in power systems analysis using ETAP, SKM or other similar calculation software.
* Previous experience preparing estimated quantities, job hour estimates and schedule planning.
