POWER DISTRIBUTION & MAKE-READY DESIGNER (FIELD + DESIGN HYBRID)
Overhead Utility Pole Design | Joint-Use Engineering | Field Data Collection
Location: Remote (U.S.)
Primary Field Focus: Tulsa and Surrounding Areas
ABOUT THIS OPPORTUNITY
We are seeking an experienced Power Distribution / Make-Ready Designer who is comfortable owning the full lifecycle of utility pole design, from field data collection and walkouts through construction-ready engineering deliverables.
This role is ideal for designers who prefer to personally verify field conditions, understand how real-world infrastructure impacts design decisions, and want to reduce handoff gaps between field and design teams.
Candidates must have prior experience in overhead utility pole design and NESC-compliant make-ready or power distribution engineering. This is not an entry-level or field-only role.
This position is remote but requires regular local fieldwork within the assigned territory, with occasional overnight travel as needed.
Applicants without prior experience in utility pole design or power distribution engineering will not be considered.
Note: New hires are required to attend a 2-week paid, in-person onboarding and training at our Perrysburg, Ohio headquarters.
WHAT YOU WILL DO
Field Data Collection and Walkouts
- Perform utility pole walkouts and field surveys to collect accurate attachment, clearance, and structural data
- Verify pole ownership, attachment types, heights, spans, guying, and equipment in the field
- Conduct kickoff or scope meetings as needed and document existing conditions
- Capture photos, measurements, GPS data, and field notes to support design decisions
- Research right-of-way, easements, permitting constraints, and property ownership
Design and Engineering
- Execute overhead distribution and make-ready designs in compliance with NESC and client standards
- Evaluate field conditions and determine make-ready requirements, attachment rearrangements, and pole replacements
- Perform pole loading analysis and clearance resolution
- Develop complete, construction-ready design packages
- Perform end-to-end joint-use and/or general distribution design
- Use design platforms such as DDS, AutoCAD, MicroStation, Katapult, O-Calc, GIS, or utility-specific systems
- Collaborate with engineering, project management, and quality teams
- Perform or support quality control reviews as required

Job Title : Nuclear Engineer (Naval Reactors Engineer) Category / Component : Officer • Active Overview Design, regulate, and oversee the Navy's nuclear propulsion program, including reactor design, fleet operations, and eventual defueling and decommissioning of nuclear powered ships and submarines from Naval Reactors Headquarters and associated Department of Energy laboratories and shipyards.
Key Responsibilities Provide technical direction in areas such as reactor and fluid systems design, reactor physics, materials development, component design for steam generators, pumps, and valves, instrumentation and control for reactor and propulsion plants, testing and quality control, radiation shielding, and chemistry and radiological controls; review designs and analyses from laboratories, shipyards, and industry partners; coordinate with fleet units to ensure safe and reliable nuclear plant operation.
What to Expect Assume significant technical responsibility early in your career as part of a lean headquarters staff; work primarily in an analytical and oversight role rather than operating plants at sea; balance long term engineering projects with time sensitive fleet and shipyard issues; frequent coordination with senior civilian engineers, naval officers, and technical teams; high expectations for attention to detail, judgment, and written and oral communication.
Work Environment Work mainly at Naval Reactors Headquarters in the Washington, District of Columbia area with regular engagement with Department of Energy laboratories, nuclear training sites, shipyards, and nuclear powered ships and submarines; office based work that includes document reviews, technical meetings, inspections, and site visits rather than day to day shipboard watchstanding.
