Join Crusoe Energy as the Principal Electrical Engineer and serve as the department’s technical authority on power distribution, power protection, and switchgear design. In this high-impact role, you will define the engineering standards and technical strategy for our modular integrated electronics buildings and critical power infrastructure
You will move beyond day-to-day drafting to architect robust power systems, solve complex protection coordination challenges, and lead the technical direction of the electrical engineering team. You will be the "go-to" expert for regulatory compliance (NEC, IEEE, UL) and the final approver for critical design decisions. While this is a technical leadership role, you will also mentor staff and senior engineers, driving a culture of technical excellence and precision. This role is open to relocation
Technical Authority & Strategy: Serve as the reigning SME for power distribution and switchgear design (low and medium voltage). Lead high-level system architecture to ensure reliability and selectivity for modular data centers and power distribution centers
Code Interpretation & Compliance: Act as the final decision-maker on complex code interpretations, ensuring strict compliance with NEC (NFPA 70), UL 1558/1670/891/508A, and IEEE standards
Advanced Power Systems Analysis: Perform and oversee critical power system studies, including Short Circuit, Coordination, Arc Flash, and Load Flow analysis
Protection & Control: Design and validate complex protection schemes, selecting and configuring protective relays (SEL, ABB, etc.) to ensure optimal system reliability
Critical Design Reviews: Conduct deep-dive technical reviews of designs produced by the engineering team, serving as the final quality gate before fabrication
Leadership & Mentorship: Provide expert mentorship to Staff and Senior Electrical Engineers, elevating the team's technical capabilities and fostering future leaders
Engineering Standards: Develop and maintain the department’s electrical design standards, specifications, and best practices to ensure consistency across all projects
Cross-Functional Strategy: Partner with Manufacturing and Product Management to align technical capabilities with long-term business goals, driving innovation in modular power solutions
