Architecture Project Designer - Raleigh, NC, United States - BuildSubmarines

Description

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.

The successful candidate will be an integral part of a team that executes technical design on high-voltage transmission line engineering projects ranging in scale from simple structure replacements to large greenfield design projects.

This is an excellent entry-level opportunity for a self-directed individual who is eager to learn and take on new challenges.

The primary duties of a Transmission Line EIT include the preparation of engineering drawings, calculations, analyses, reports and designs for high-voltage transmission lines under the direction and supervision of more senior engineers and designers.

Work under the direction of Project Manager(s) and Project Engineer(s).
Conduct analyses to develop design options, perform modeling and/or calculations, and prepare design sketches and concept drawings.

Work with Designers and CAD Technicians to develop construction drawings in accordance with national design standards, safety codes, and project specifications and requirements.

Participate in field reviews or construction observation

Typical designs include structure design, structure spotting, conductor sag and blowout calculations, foundation design, hardware selection and fit-up, and development of bill of materials.

Designs must also consider environmental permitting, right-of-way acquisition, public involvement, access roads, and construction requirements.

Occasional short-term travel (typically 1-5 days) may be necessary. Longer term (several weeks) assignments may be required infrequently on project assignments.

Bachelor's Degree in Civil, Mechanical, or Electrical Engineering (or a related field)
EIT or ability to obtain registration within 12 months; Proficiency with Microsoft Office
Familiarity or willingness to learn transmission line design software such as PLS-CADD, PLS-Pole, and PLS-Tower
Microstation and/or AutoCAD
Preference is given to local candidates

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.

We help you take charge of your career, giving you multiple growth opportunities along the way.
