+ Strong understanding of ANSI, IEEE, NETA, NFPA, NEC, and OSHA electrical safety standards.
+ Ability to interpret electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, and technical manuals.
+ Proficiency in operating and troubleshooting protective relays, circuit breakers, transformers, switchgear, and other electrical equipment.
+ Experience with test equipment such as Doble, Omicron, Megger, Vanguard, and Fluke meters.
+ Understanding of insulation resistance, power factor, contact resistance, and high-potential (Hi-Pot) testing procedures.
+ Knowledge of medium and high-voltage systems (up to 500kV), including arc flash hazard analysis.
+ Strong troubleshooting and analytical skills with the ability to diagnose system failures.
+ Willingness to travel as needed and work in industrial, data center, and utility environments.
+ Ability to work safely under minimal supervision and follow industry best practices.
+ Perform **acceptance and maintenance testing** of electrical power systems, ensuring compliance with NETA standards
+ Conduct protective relay testing, calibration, and programming for various manufacturers.
+ Perform circuit breaker and switchgear testing, including timing tests, primary and secondary injection testing.
+ Troubleshoot electrical faults and perform root cause analysis for system failures.
+ Conduct transformer testing, including turns ratio, insulation resistance, and power factor testing.
+ Ensure adherence to electrical safety protocols, including lockout/tagout (LOTO) procedures and PPE compliance.
+ Maintain detailed test reports and documentation for compliance and client review.
+ Collaborate with engineers, project managers, and clients to ensure efficient system commissioning and startup.
+ Provide mentorship and technical guidance to junior technicians as needed.
**Desired / Advantageous Qualifications:**
+ OEM certified field service training program.
**We offer an excellent benefits package including:**
+ A competitive salary
+ Medical, dental, vision, life, and disability insurance
+ Paid time off
