    Forensic Electrical Engineer - Minnetonka, United States - KFI Engineers

    Default job background
    Description
    COMPANY BACKGROUND KFI Engineers is a recognized industry leader in facility infrastructure design and performance.

    Since 1996, our culture of collaboration and unique capabilities have allowed us to make a difference in the way infrastructure and processing projects are delivered.

    Headquartered in St.

    Paul, MN, with eight regional offices and a team of over 250 professionals, we have a people-first culture that offers opportunities to continue your career with mentorship programs, career growth support, and continued education.

    With KFI, we find a way to provide creative solutions to unique projects while providing the same care we would expect if we were the client.

    For more information about KFI Engineers and our culture, please visit POSITION OVERVIEW The Forensic Electrical Engineer focuses on diverse and challenging engineering work while being responsible for overseeing a forensic technical investigation from beginning to end.

    This position has the opportunity to investigate a wide range of failures, fires, and explosions involving residential, commercial, industrial, and appliance fires and explosions.

    Given the unpredictable nature and location of the work, the Forensic Electrical Engineer will be required to travel to the location of the incident, sometimes on short notice, to conduct the formal investigation process.

    The work will often require examination of failed components and other physical evidence on site or in a laboratory environment.

    Occasionally, the Forensic Electrical Engineer will dismantle machinery, equipment, or component assemblies in a systematic manner to obtain the evidence, as well as devise and possibly undertake tests to determine the cause of a system failure, possibly the origin and cause of a fire, factors contributing to the spread of fire, and evaluate the performance of electrical systems during the event.

    The Forensic Electrical Engineer will report the Senior Fire Protection Project Manager and work closely with our Senior Fire Protection Engineer and other in-house forensic team members.

    This position will primarily be responsible for conducting loss investigations where electrical systems are involved.

    The successful candidate will be able to develop opinions and conclusions based on NFPA 921, the Scientific Method, engineering principles, and sound engineering judgment backed by appropriate experience.

    This position can be done remotely.

    TYPICAL RESPONSIBILITIES Specific responsibilities will include, but not be limited to, the following:
    Observation/Inspection of losses possibly caused by electrical system failures. Collect and examine data at the site of a loss. Consult relevant codes, standards, and regulations. Document evidence and other investigation findings Ability to photograph damage and evidence related to fires, explosions, or other losses. Determine and conduct appropriate tests and data acquisition of exemplar and artifacts in the field and in laboratories. Conduct laboratory-based examinations Provide system failure analyses. Research and write expert reports. Interview witnesses, property owners, and building occupants to obtain information during an investigation. Testify in court cases involving investigated losses. Additional duties as required.

    KFI Engineers is an equal opportunity employer, and all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, or status as a protected veteran.
