About Us

Quanta Power Solutions brings together the industry-leading capabilities and resources of Quanta's operating companies to deliver complete EPC solutions. Our integrated approach spans power generation, battery energy storage, renewables, transmission, substation, and underground infrastructure — from concept to commissioning, we execute complex power infrastructure projects with the speed, certainty, and operational excellence our customers depend on.

 

At Quanta Power Solutions, we are driven by a culture of safety, integrity, and disciplined execution — and we're building a team that shares that commitment.

About this Role

Quanta Power Solutions is seeking a highly experienced Electrical Designer IV to lead advanced electrical design efforts for large-scale power generation, renewable energy, battery energy storage systems (BESS), data centers, substations, transmission, and industrial infrastructure projects. This senior-level design role is responsible for driving complex 3D modeling and electrical design execution, coordinating multidisciplinary deliverables, and ensuring the delivery of high-quality, constructible EPC design packages. 

The ideal candidate will bring extensive industrial and utility design experience, strong leadership within design teams, and the ability to independently manage and guide complex electrical design scopes from conceptual development through construction and commissioning.
