The Sr Engineer applies in-depth technical knowledge and expertise to complex engineering and construction projects and in resolving emergent issues.
Is depended upon regularly in one or more areas of engineering expertise with in-depth knowledge in related field or wide breadth of engineering knowledge in general fields.
Understands engineering technology and process concepts for the organization and processes.
Work is reviewed from a long-term perspective and mainly for results.
Establishes most effective solution to problems.
Sought out for solutions that are acted on as a final technical basis for decisions.
May be subject to shift work.
Minimum Requirements
Engineer III
A four year Bachelor of Science degree in an engineering discipline or related applied science discipline (see approved list) from an ABET accredited institution plus five (5) years working experience in Engineering-related positions
Engineer Senior
A four year Bachelor of Science degree in an engineering discipline or related applied science discipline (see approved list) from an ABET accredited institution plus eight (8) years working experience in Engineering-related positions
Approved Degrees: Materials Science/Metallurgy, Physics, Chemistry, Math, Nuclear, Electrical, Mechanical, Civil, Electronics, Computer Science, Environmental, Chemical, Architectural, Structural. (A four-year bachelor of Engineering Technology degree is not considered an automatic equivalent for a B.S. degree in Engineering. A review of the degree program curriculum must be completed by Engineering department management.)
Preferred Special Skills, Knowledge or Qualifications: Problem analysis/resolution techniques. Knowledge of applicable codes, standards, practices, methods and safety standards in the area of applicable engineering discipline. Experience in the utility industry. Experience in nuclear industry for jobs at Palo Verde. Professional Engineer licensure.
Nuclear requirement: Any PVGS employee may be called upon to serve as a member of the Emergency Response Organization (ERO) and will be expected to fulfill their obligation as an ERO member. Any PVGS employee may be called upon to support a refueling or short-notice outage. This includes line roles and responsibilities as necessary to execute outage activities. These are conditions of employment at PVGS.
Major Accountabilities
1) Develops and applies unique solutions and applications to a broad range of technical issues and problems (solutions that typically require original and creative approaches).
Makes decisions and recommendations that have a moderate to significant effect on the overall organization performance.
2) Prepares complex engineering plans, designs, analysis, specifications, cost estimates, evaluations, studies, technical reviews, investigations and verifications.

Checks and reviews analysis, evaluations, and investigations of others.
3) Integrates the many interrelated elements of complex projects that are broad in scope, require considerations not previously encountered and requires interpretation and/or modification to guidelines.
Complies with design, regulatory, operating and maintenance requirements.
Identifies potential schedule or quality problems and initiates corrective action.
4) Interfaces with customers and other departments to ensure project objectives are understood and that work scope meets customer requirements, budget and schedule.
Contacts customers and various levels of management to obtain or present technical data.
Presents the results of designs, studies projects (in terms of new techniques) or approaches to subordinates, colleagues, management and customers.
5) Provides technical guidance, leadership and support to less experienced engineers.
6) Assists the organization in problem solving, as needed, by critically challenging assumptions and decisions to ensure the most optimal solutions and strategies are implemented.
Assists in developing long-range strategies for significant site problems.
7) Leverages industry and organization resources to resolve key technical issues.
Develops a path forward to address these issues including bridging strategies.
May interface with outside agencies and regulatory authorities.
8) May plan and coordinate programs and large-scale engineering projects or multiple medium-scale projects while acting as a technical specialist for a specific engineering field.
