Electrical Engineer

The APEX Power Co. Project in Hubbard, TX, currently under Phase 1 construction, is expected to expand to 1.6 GW. The facility features Siemens SGT-800/400 turbines, MAN/Everllence 18V51/60G gas reciprocating engines, GE LM6000/LM2500 and Pratt & Whitney FT8 turbines, and a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS). Future expansion may include additional GE aero and large frame units (6B, 7FA/7FB/7H) in simple or combined cycle configurations, supporting flexible generation and data center grid reliability.

Opportunity Summary

The Electrical Engineer provides technical leadership for plant electrical systems throughout commissioning and commercial operations. This role supports the maintenance, troubleshooting, and optimization of low-, medium-, and high-voltage systems through 35.4 kV; manages electrical projects and modifications; and coordinates relay testing and circuit breaker maintenance. Working with plant teams, OEMs, and contractors, the Electrical Engineer develops solutions that improve reliability, safety, and performance.

As Electrical Engineer, your responsibilities specific to the Pre-Commissioning Phase include:

• Lead electrical system readiness activities, ensuring low-, medium-, and high-voltage equipment, switchgear, transformers, protective relays, and distribution systems are installed, tested, and ready for safe startup.
• Oversee installation, configuration, testing, and commissioning of electrical systems in accordance with design specifications, electrical standards, and commissioning requirements.
• Direct functional testing of switchgear, transformers, circuit breakers, protective relays, MCCs, generators, and distribution equipment before startup.
• Coordinate electrical integration with turbines, BESS, control systems, and balance-of-plant equipment to ensure safe, reliable operation.
• Support FAT, SAT, system turnover, and startup activities while resolving electrical deficiencies before commercial operation.
• Lead troubleshooting and resolution of electrical, protection, and power distribution issues using Root Cause Analysis (RCA).
• Coordinate protective relay testing, settings verification, circuit breaker testing, and protection system validation before energization.
• Ensure electrical drawings, relay settings, protection studies, equipment records, test reports, and CMMS/EAM data are complete for operational turnover.

Your scope of responsibility as Electrical Engineer includes the following primary functions:

• Provide technical leadership for low-, medium-, and high-voltage electrical systems to maximize reliability, availability, safety, and performance.
• Troubleshoot, maintain, repair, and optimize switchgear, transformers, generators, MCCs, breakers, protective relays, and power distr...
