Glumac, A Tetra Tech Company, is seeking an Electrical Engineer with Distributed Energy Resources project experience to join our world-class Electrical Team. This is a unique opportunity to be part of a global leader in building engineering committed to combatting climate change through decarbonization, electrification, and resilient design. The ideal candidate will have top-notch experience providing design and implementation for multiple forms of renewable energy sources including but not limited to photovoltaic (PV), wind, fuel cells, solar, battery storage, and electric vehicle (EV) charging. As a leader, you will excel at providing consulting services with clients on next-generation technologies and integrating them into projects. This position will work closely with our Building Science group to expand Glumac's portfolio of Distributed Energy projects. In this role, you will assist in the design and technical analysis for battery energy storage, distributed energy resources (DERs), and microgrid design. You will collaborate with our Energy team to understand the effects of renewable energy on a power system. Your responsibilities will include providing designs for required relaying/metering, switchgear design, and specification of the system. You will also design and plan electrical power systems for various projects, including industrial and manufacturing facilities, campuses, hospitals, laboratories, high-rise offices, educational facilities, and other commercial and institutional projects. The successful candidate will have a strong background in electrical utility resilience planning and long-term master planning, with project design experience in at least two of the following areas: commercial photovoltaic (PV) solar design, on-shore wind turbine, clean fuel cell technologies, large-scale battery energy storage systems, large-scale electric vehicle charging infrastructure, and microgrids utilizing relays and advanced control logic. A Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent industry experience, along with a current Professional Engineering (PE) license, is required. Knowledge of codes, standards, and financial incentives for alternative energy systems, especially those related to DER integration with the utility, is essential. Familiarity with REVIT, microgrid/DER analysis or control software, and experience with short circuit/coordination/arc flash software will be advantageous.
