About this role
Candid Intelligence is building the AI layer for EPCs, aiming to automate preconstruction engineering processes. The Senior Electrical Engineer will help translate electrical workflows into product requirements and validation checks, ensuring efficiency and quality in electrical scope development.
Responsibilities:
- Define how electrical scope is developed and validated during FEED
- Review and validate electrical inputs and equipment requirements across early phase packages
- Create repeatable checks that catch inconsistencies across load assumptions, equipment needs, and package interfaces
- Map where electrical rework happens and what typically causes it
- Clarify interfaces with Mechanical packages, Instrumentation, and overall project constraints
- Identify which steps are repetitive vs which require real engineering judgement
Requirements:
- 7+ years at an EPC, PMC, or owner operator
- Strong understanding of FEED and early detailed design electrical workflows
- Experience with typical downstream electrical deliverables (load lists, equipment requirements, distribution concepts)
- Knowledge of NFPA, IEC, IEEE, or similar standards
- Ability to spot inconsistencies across equipment requirements and vendor packages
- Clear understanding of cross discipline dependencies
- Experience with brownfield tie ins and constrained power systems
- Familiarity with hazardous area driven requirements in downstream facilities
- Interest in AI or automation
