  • Interpret and apply engineering standards and memos.
  • Assist with technical consultation, plan development, and recommendations for customer and company systems and processes, including verifying and validating studies, blueprints, or designs against accepted engineering principles and practices.
  • Evaluate the effectiveness of current design processes and participate on teams, including designing high-voltage transmission and distribution circuits to meet engineering standards and criteria.
  • Develop construction drawings and material requirements for relatively complex utility infrastructure installation, removal, or modification projects.
  • Respond to customer service needs by evaluating standard versus required facilities to develop customer charges with financial and operational impact.
  • Manage financial requirements associated with projects supporting the Asset Investment Committee and Project Review Committee process.
  • Apply technical knowledge to promote a safe work environment and enhance customer satisfaction.
  • Work independently under the direction of a lead engineer.
  • Work extended hours when required, including 24/7 coverage during storms or other energy-delivery emergencies.

Desired Qualifications

  • Relevant education or experience may include knowledge or skills acquired through job experience or education programs similar to a formal technical degree program.
  • Relevant experience may include military work involving transmission, distribution, gas, or power systems; project management; journey-level electrician or gas technician work; field operations; or other utility-related experience deemed relevant to the role.
  • Relevant educational experience may include company-sponsored training programs such as PowerUp Academy or other educational programs deemed relevant to the role; this equivalent relevant education or experience is in addition to the position's minimum experience requirements.

About the Company

Exelon

Regulated utility delivering electricity and gas

Exelon is a public utility holding company that owns six regulated electric and gas utilities on the East Coast and in the Mid-Atlantic: Atlantic City Electric, Baltimore Gas and Electric, Commonwealth Edison, Delmarva Power, PECO, and Pepco. Its main work is delivering electricity and natural gas to about 11 million customers through these regulated utilities, and it earns revenue from state-approved rates for transmission and distribution rather than from energy commodity prices. The company supports grid modernization and infrastructure upgrades with substantial capital investments; its business model emphasizes reliable service, regulatory compliance, and predictable earnings tied to regulated rates. Exelon’s goal is to provide safe, dependable energy delivery and improve the electric grid, while growing through prudent investments within its regulated footprint.
