  • Review work provided by clients and assess requirements of the scopes.
  • Conduct field work including taking photos and measurements of assigned sites or circuits.

  • Create a Bill of Materials (BOM) to be entered in SAP/Material Tracking Software.
  • Assist with potential permits for utility lines to cross roads, easements, or private property.
  • Submit completed electrical construction packages for approval and make revisions as needed.
  • Communicate frequently with clients via email, phone, and Teams.
  • Use additional software such as Poleforman, PLA/Pole Loading Analysis, and Katapault for structural analysis and data collection.
  • Apply National Electric Safety Codes (NESC) when making designs or selecting materials.
  • Collaborate with a designated final Quality Control approver on necessary changes or revisions.

Essential Skills

  • Associate Degree in CAD
  • Experience with design software such as AutoCAD, Solidworks, Catia, or Microstation.


Additional Skills & Qualifications

  • Entry-level engineers or designers with relevant degrees or associates in design.
  • Candidates with specific distribution or utility experience without a degree.


Work Environment

This role offers 100% remote work options in Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, Ohio, and West Pennsylvania. Michigan-based candidates have the option to work from the office, conduct field work, or work from home. Out-of-state candidates will be required to spend a week or two in Michigan for initial training, with all expenses covered. The position is directly connected to the Utility Energy Division, which recently secured a large contract for distribution and reliability work. The department is growing rapidly, offering opportunities for career advancement and professional development.
