Job Description

We are seeking an exceptionally skilled Staff/Senior Facilities Electrical Engineer with specialized expertise in commissioning, project execution and operational readiness within a high-demand semiconductor manufacturing environment. This critical role ensures the seamless integration of new and upgraded electrical systems - from design validation through energization - while maintaining uninterrupted fabrication operations. The ideal candidate will have extensive experience with medium-voltage electrical systems up to 12,000 V and a proven track record of executing complex projects safely and efficiently.

Key Responsibilities:

• Commissioning & Startup Leadership:
  • Lead commissioning for facility upgrades, expansions and new tool installations.
  • Develop commissioning plans and validation protocols for performance, functionality and compliance with design and operational requirements.
  • Troubleshoot and resolve technical issues to ensure timely energization and successful system handoff.
• Project Execution & Documentation:
  • Author, review and approve electrical project scopes of work (SOWs) and switching/LOTO schedules for outages, tie-ins and energizations.
  • Create and maintain SOPs, maintenance procedures and emergency response plans aligned with industry best practices.
  • Manage electrical change orders, submittals and RFIs during project execution.
• Facility Upgrades & Tool Installation:
  • Provide electrical engineering support across the project lifecycle, including new fab construction, expansions and tool installations.
  • Ensure designs comply with NEC, SEMI standards, corporate specifications and power quality requirements for sensitive equipment.
  • Validate voltage, current, grounding and harmonic performance for new tool hook-ups.
• Power System Reliability & Safety:
  • Apply load-shedding and restoration strategies to minimize risk during planned outages and unplanned events.
  • Review protective device coordination and settings for safe and reliable system operation.
  • Conduct arc flash, short circuit, and load flow studies to support project design, commissioning, and operational readiness.
  • Champion electrical safety, particularly during medium-voltage (up to 12 kV) energization and maintenance.
  • Maintain compliance with NFPA 70E, OSHA and NFPA 70B standards.
  • Develop and implement robust LOTO procedures for complex multi-sourced and medium-voltage systems.
  • Maintain accurate as-built documentation and participate in electrical incident.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent.
• 5+ years of electrical engineering experience, including design collaboration, construction support, and operational troubleshooting.
• Proficient in power distribution systems, motor control centers (MCCs), VFDs, and backup/emergency power systems.
• Experience with medium-voltage systems (4,160 V to 12,000 V) is required.
• Strong knowledge of electrical codes and standards, including NEC, NFPA 70E, IEEE, and NETA.
• Skilled in electrical analysis tools (e.g., ETAP, SKM PowerTools) and CAD drafting platforms (e.g., AutoCAD).

Preferred Qualifications

• Master's degree in Electrical Engineering with a focus on power systems or controls. 
• Control systems troubleshooting and commissioning experience.
• Experience performing power systems studies, including protective device coordination, arc flash analysis, short circuit calculations and cable schedules.
• Background supporting electrical systems in high-reliability environments, such as semiconductor, pharmaceutical or data center facilit
