Electrical Engineer II

About the role

The Electrical Engineer II – Cable Routing & Analysis supports the design and development of electrical cable routing systems for Holtec's SMR-300 advanced nuclear power plant. This role works within a multidisciplinary engineering team to develop and coordinate cable routing and raceway designs for electrical power, instrumentation & controls (I&C), and communications systems.

Primary Responsibilities

• Support cable routing design for the SMR-300 plant across electrical power, I&C, and communications systems.
• Develop and maintain cable routing and raceway layouts in accordance with project criteria, design inputs, separation requirements, fire area considerations, constructability, and maintainability needs.
• Execute raceway design activities including cable tray and conduit layout, routing studies, routing constraints, and installation considerations.
• Prepare raceway sizing inputs, including tray fill inputs, conduit sizing inputs, routing quantities, and support needs as required by the project workflow.
• Support penetration coordination, including identifying routing paths, developing proposed locations, and coordinating with civil/structural and other disciplines.
• Prepare routing deliverables such as routing layouts, design notes/details, routing reports, model-based outputs, and design change documentation.
• Perform cable routing and raceway layout work in SmartPlant 3D (SP3D) or similar 3D plant design tools.
• Participate in model reviews and support resolution of clashes, congestion, and routing conflicts.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, or closely related discipline, from an ABET-accredited college or university.
• 5–7 years of progressive experience in electrical engineering design, with experience supporting cable routing, raceway design, or related plant design activities.
• Working knowledge of engineering practices relevant to cable routing and raceway design, including routing separation concepts, cable tray/conduit practices, grounding/bonding concepts, fire protection interfaces, and constructability considerations.
• Experience working in a 3D plant design environment.
• Ability to prepare clear engineering deliverables, resolve technical comments, and support interdisciplinary coordination.
• Strong communication skills and ability to work effectively with multi-disciplinary engineering teams.
• Nuclear project experience or experience working in a regulated design environment with formal design controls, QA expectations, traceability, and design reviews preferred.
• Experience coordinating routing or penetration interfaces with civil/structural, mechanical, piping/HVAC, I&C, and systems engineering preferred.
• Experience supporting procurement or vendor submittal reviews that impact routing/raceway design, equipment interfaces, installation constraints, or vendor routing limitations.
• Experience supporting construction execution, including walkdowns, constructability reviews, field change support, or installation sequencing coordination.
• Familiarity with related tools and workflows often used with SP3D delivery, including model review tools, cable schedule databases, configuration management, and document control processes.
• Engineer-in-Training (EIT) certification or interest in pursuing Professional Engineer licensure.

Qualifications

• Passion for innovation and problem-solving in the nuclear industry.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
• Excellent interpersonal and communication skills.
• Ability to work independently and as part of a team.
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite.

Skills

• Proficient in 3D plant design tools (e.g., SmartPlant 3D).
• Experience with AutoCAD, Revit, or similar drafting software.
• Knowledge of electrical codes and standards (e.g., NFPA 70).
• Experience with project management tools and methodologies.

Benefits

• Annual compensation based on skills and experience ranging from $110,000 to $130,000.
• Industry-leading medical, dental, and vision coverage with a generous employer premium contribution and Day 1 eligibility!
• FLEX Program – Hybrid work opportunities available for eligible roles, where business needs and role requirements allow.
• 401(k) retirement plan with up to a 5% company match and immediate vesting to support long-term financial security.
• Paid time off and 11 paid holidays to support rest, balance, and recharge.
• Wellness program offering rewards for participation in company-supported health initiatives.
• Commuter benefits supporting mass transit and commuter parking options.
• Company-paid life and AD&D insurance for added peace of mind.
• Education assistance to support continued education and professional growth.
• Employee support and voluntary benefits, including an Employee Assistance Program and optional coverage such as disability, legal, identity theft, and insurance programs.
