    About Us

    At HDR, we specialize in engineering, architecture, environmental and construction services. While we are most well-known for adding beauty and structure to communities through high-performance buildings and smart infrastructure, we provide much more than that. We create an unshakable foundation for progress because our multidisciplinary teams also include scientists, economists, builders, analysts and artists. That's why we believe diversity is our greatest strength. HDR is proud to be an equal opportunity workplace and an affirmative action employer.

    Watch Our Story: ' '

    We believe that the way we work can add meaning and value to the world. That ideas inspire positive change. That coloring outside the lines can illuminate fresh perspectives. And that small details yield important realizations. Above all, we believe that collaboration is the best way forward.

    HDR Engineering is looking for a Substation Senior Designer to join our growing and nationally ranked team of Power Delivery professionals in our Substation group.

    The successful candidate will be a part of a team that provides designer support for large and small scale substation engineering projects. This is an excellent growth opportunity for a self-directed individual who wants to learn and take on new challenges.

    • Work independently to perform substation design tasks, CADD design, develop design drawings and documents, modeling and/or analysis, prepare material lists, perform field reviews, and other tasks for moderately complex to highly complex projects.

    • Perform calculations, reports and designs for electrical substations (Low, Medium and High Voltage) and substation systems to support engineers.
    • Understand client standards and complete small to moderately complex projects, exercising judgment in design criteria, evaluation, and design, subject to review by engineers.
    • Based upon experience, can perform most design responsibilities without assistance on moderately complex projects, and may work independently, but with some engineering guidance on complex project
    • Communicate with Project Managers, Project Engineers, and client personnel.
    Qualifications

    Required Qualifications
    • Associates or technical school degree or combination of education and relevant experience.
    • 10 years of experience developing CADD layouts/designs from engineering designs.
    • Proficiency using Microsoft Office, AutoCAD and MicroStation or Inroads etc.
    • Experience in both the Protection and Control (Indoor) and Physical (Outdoor) aspects of High Voltage (HV) Substation design.
    • Ability to be a lead technician, train junior designers, and work closely with engineering staff.
    • Strong attention to detail, communication, and organizational skills.
    • Previous experience with an architectural/engineering or engineering consulting firm preferred.
    Why HDR

    At HDR, we know work isn't only about who you work for it's also about what you do and how you do it. Led by the strength of our values and a culture shaped by employee ownership, we network with each other, build on each other's contributions, and collaborate together to make great things possible.
