Description

Electrical Engineer - Junior Level

Clearance Required: Current TS/SCI security clearance with the ability to pass a polygraph.

Join Leidos as a motivated and detail-oriented Electrical Engineer to support mission-critical operations in secure government facilities. This is an excellent opportunity to enhance your technical skills while contributing to the design, analysis, and implementation of essential electrical power systems.

As a Junior Electrical Engineer, you will work under the guidance of experienced engineers and gain hands-on experience through every stage of electrical infrastructure, from design and documentation to field testing and commissioning. If you are eager to apply your engineering skills in a challenging, fast-paced environment, we want to hear from you

Primary Responsibilities

  • Assist in designing and laying out medium- and low-voltage power distribution systems.
  • Create and update single-line diagrams, protection/control schematics, and equipment specifications.
  • Engage in field inspections, functional testing, and commissioning of electrical systems.
  • Collaborate with civil, mechanical, systems, and vendor teams to deliver integrated infrastructure solutions.
  • Support the evaluation and specification of electrical components such as transformers, switchgear, and UPS systems.
  • Contribute to engineering documentation, technical reports, and maintenance policy development.
  • Assist in power system studies including load flow, short circuit, arc flash, and grounding analyses.
  • Gain exposure to SCADA systems, substation design, and renewable energy integration.
  • Utilize AutoCAD, Revit MEP, and Microsoft Office tools for design and documentation.

Basic Qualifications

  • Current TS/SCI security clearance with the ability to pass a polygraph.
  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field with 2-4 years of experience, or a Master's degree with less than 2 years of experience (additional experience may substitute for degree).
  • Strong understanding of electrical engineering principles and their application to real-world projects.
  • Excellent communication skills and ability to collaborate with interdisciplinary teams.
  • Experience in electrical system design, including power distribution, lighting, and controls.
  • Familiarity with commercial electrical codes and standards (e.g., NEC).
  • Proficiency in AutoCAD and related CAD tools.
  • Aware of energy-efficient and sustainable design practices.
  • Exposure to medium voltage systems, backup generators, UPS, and lighting controls.
  • Ability to troubleshoot and resolve moderately complex technical challenges.

Preferred Qualifications

  • EIT (Engineer in Training) or PE (Professional Engineer) certification.
  • Experience with SCADA systems, substation design, and renewable energy integration.
  • Proficient in AutoCAD, Revit MEP, and technical documentation.
  • Strong teamwork and communication skills for cross-functional collaboration.
  • Familiarity with project management practices including scheduling and budgeting.
  • Detail-oriented with a commitment to safety, quality, and innovation.
  • Experience with reactive maintenance and industrial control systems (PLCs, instrumentation).

This role is perfect for early-career engineers eager to build a strong foundation in electrical infrastructure while supporting national security operations. Join Leidos and help shape the future of government facility engineering.
