Position Overview:

The Electrical Engineering Data Collection Technician supports the engineering team by performing structured, high-accuracy field data collection for power-system studies—primarily arc flash (IEEE 1584), short-circuit, and protective device coordination. This position ensures engineers receive complete, correct, and clearly organized data for modeling facilities with minimal follow-up.

The role is ideal for a hands-on electrical technician or wireman who enjoys methodical field work, technical documentation, and working safely around energized equipment in commercial, healthcare, manufacturing, and government environments.
