Senior Substation Designer
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) and do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. IMPORTANT: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones.
We need to decide which sections to include: About the role (intro), Responsibilities, Requirements (maybe combine qualifications and skills), Benefits, Pay (they gave salary range), Schedule (they mention hybrid working policy). The posting includes: "Our health and welfare benefits are designed to invest in you..." That's benefits. Also "Jacobs has an unlimited U.S. Personalized Paid Time Off (PPTO) policy for full-time salaried/exempt employees, seven paid holidays, and caregiver leave." That's benefits. Also "And certain roles may be eligible for additional rewards, including merit increases, performance discretionary bonus, and stock." That's benefits.
Pay: "The base salary range for this position is $110,600.00 to $145,200.00." So we can include Pay section.
Schedule: "We empower employees with our hybrid working policy, allowing them to split their work week between Jacobs offices/projects and remote locations enabling them to deliver their best work." That's schedule info.
Also there is "Job posted on September 18, 2026. This position will be open for at least 3 days." That's metadata; we can fold into a short
maybe under About the role or drop? The instruction: fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. Probably include a short paragraph with that info.
We must not include EEO boilerplate, application instructions, etc. Remove lines like "All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to..." That's EEO boilerplate; remove. Also "If you require further support or reasonable adjustments..." that's application instructions; remove. Also "#epjobs #naepjobs #SMR" remove.
We need to preserve all substantive information: responsibilities list, requirements list, benefits, pay, schedule, hybrid policy, etc.
We need to format responsibilities as
- . The responsibilities list is long bullet points starting with "Develop and maintain complete P&C point to point wiring design packages..." etc. We'll turn each line into
- . Ensure we keep all.
Requirements: The section "Here's what you'll need" includes bullet-like lines: Associate Degree..., Minimum 12 years..., Demonstrated experience..., Experience supporting..., Understanding..., Proficiency..., Strong understanding..., Strong knowledge..., Ability..., Ideally, You'll Also Have... (these are additional preferred qualifications). We can treat them as requirements (maybe split into Required and Preferred). But we can just list all as
- under Requirements. However we need to avoid filler like "Ideally, You'll Also Have" maybe we keep as part of list.
We need to avoid duplication: The responsibilities list includes many items; ensure we capture all.
Let's extract responsibilities text:
"Responsibilities Will Include Duties for this position include, but are not limited to Develop and maintain complete P&C point to point wiring design packages for utility and industrial substation projects.Prepare panel wiring diagrams, field interconnection wiring diagrams, control panel layouts, relay panel arrangements, communications and SCADA wiring drawings.Develop cable schedules and cable routing plans.Perform DC and AC distribution breaker and fuse sizing.Develop station one-line diagrams, general arrangement drawings, equipment layouts, and elevations.Develop grounding plans, lightning protection, conduit and raceway layouts, cable trench layouts, cable tray layouts, and control building layouts.Coordinate equipment locations and clearances.Verify existing site conditions and gather field data during site walkdownsParticipate in constructability reviews during design developmentCoordinate design development with civil, structural, communications, and protection engineering disciplines and integrate into design packagesCoordinate with engineers, project managers, clients, and contractors throughout project executionReview design standards, calculations, vendor drawings, and client requirements to ensure design consistency and complianceReview design deliverables for quality, accuracy, and adherence to project requirementsDevelop Bills of Materials for P&C and Physical packages.Manage drawing revisions and project documentation throughout the project lifecycle.Support construction activities and commissioning efforts as requiredResolve field design issues and provide technical support during project execution.Support continuous improvement initiatives and QA/QC processesSupport the implementation and use of digital design tools and technologies to enhance design quality and project executionSupport proposals, estimating, and project planning activitiesSupport geographically distributed and global design teamsMentor and provide technical guidance to junior designers and drafters."
We need to split into separate items. The text lacks punctuation; we can split at each capitalized verb? Better to manually list each duty as separate
- . Let's enumerate:
- Develop and maintain complete P&C point to point wiring design packages for utility and industrial substation projects.
- Prepare panel wiring diagrams, field interconnection wiring diagrams, control panel layouts, relay panel arrangements, communications and SCADA wiring drawings.
