About the role
We are building a core technology designed to operate in the harshest, most unpredictable environments on Earth, the world’s oceans. Delivering on this mission requires not only elite engineering talent but a work environment that runs smoothly, scales intelligently, and frees our team to focus on solving impossibly hard problems. We are looking for an Electrical Infrastructure Engineer to serve as the technical authority for the design and evolution of electrical infrastructure across our facilities. This role spans existing operations and new build-outs, covering infrastructure upgrades, new facility diligence, design input, installation, commissioning, and long-term system performance. This is a design-forward role for someone who understands how power infrastructure actually gets delivered today, how to source it, design it, and scale it under real-world constraints. You will develop strategies to unlock megawatt-scale capacity quickly by combining traditional and non-traditional infrastructure approaches. You are comfortable working upstream, shaping electrical architecture, identifying risks early, and translating evolving engineering needs into practical, buildable infrastructure plans that can be executed with quality and speed. This is a full-time, onsite role at our Portland, OR facility. The work involves regular time on the shop floor, in mechanical and electrical rooms, and in active construction or buildout environments. Candidates should be comfortable working alongside engineers, technicians, and contractors in a hands-on industrial setting.
What you'll bring
- Degree in Electrical Engineering or related field
- 5–10+ years in industrial, manufacturing, or R&D environments
- Experience with medium-voltage systems, utility interconnection, or large power upgrades
- Strong background in electrical distribution systems and load calculations
- Ability to develop and interpret electrical drawings and system models
- Experience leading contractors and driving execution
- Strong troubleshooting and root-cause capability
- Working knowledge of electrical safety standards (NEC, NFPA 70E, OSHA)
- Experience developing non-traditional or hybrid power solutions
- Direct experience working with utilities
- Experience with on-site generation, microgrids, or phased builds
- PE or EIT certification
