Job Description:

Parsons is seeking a seasoned and authoritative Senior Electrical Engineer (Saudi National) to lead the design, installation, and commissioning of comprehensive Medium Voltage (MV) and Low Voltage (LV) power distribution networks in Tabuk, Saudi Arabia. In this role, you will be responsible for ensuring the reliability, safety, and capacity of power systems driving massive infrastructure developments in the region.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Power System Design & Review: Review and approve complex electrical layouts, single-line diagrams (SLDs), protection coordination studies, and short-circuit/voltage drop calculations for MV and LV networks.

  • Infrastructure Construction Oversight: Supervise site installations of MV/LV substations, transformers, switchgear, ring main units (RMUs), package substations, and cable routing networks.

  • Technical Compliance: Ensure all electrical engineering designs and field installations strictly adhere to project specifications, Saudi Electric Company (SEC) standards, HCIS regulations (where applicable), and international codes (IEC, IEEE, NEC).

  • Equipment Inspection & Testing: Lead technical evaluations for critical electrical equipment procurement and witness factory acceptance tests (FAT) and site acceptance tests (SAT) for switchgear and transformers.

  • Interface & Coordination: Collaborate directly with civil, mechanical, and ELV automation teams to ensure spatial coordination, containment compliance, and seamless power provisioning for MEP systems.

What Required Skills You'll Bring

  • Experience: Minimum of 10 years of progressive experience in electrical engineering, with a dedicated focus on large-scale MV/LV distribution and infrastructure projects.

  • Education: Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering from an accredited university. Professional Engineer (PE) status or registration with the Saudi Council of Engineers (SCE) as a Consultant/Senior Engineer is highly preferred.

  • Technical Expertise: Advanced proficiency in electrical design software (e.g., ETAP or CYME) for load flow and short-circuit analysis. Deep technical knowledge of power transformer sizing, protection relay settings, and grounding system designs.

What Desired Skills You'll Bring

  • Location/Adaptability: Must be willing to relocate to and work full-time in the Tabuk region. Direct experience navigating the complex logistical and technical demands of KSA giga-projects (e.g., NEOM, Oxagon, Trojena) is a significant asset.

  • Leadership & Communication: Strong leadership capability to mentor junior engineers and manage sub-contractors. Exceptional command of written and spoken English is required for high-level client reporting and stakeholder alignment.
