Job DescriptionPosition Summary:
Hunt Energy Network is developing large-scale islanded (behind-the-meter) power campuses serving hyperscale AI data center loads, anchored by a multi-hundred-MW natural gas engine and BESS program currently in active development. This hybrid role pairs commercial origination with hands-on project execution: the Manager will advance offtake and partnership opportunities for the islanded power platform while managing day-to-day development execution - vendors, permits, schedule, and budget - under the Vice President of EPC. The role also supports evaluation and execution of broader business development and M&A opportunities across the Hunt energy platform.
Responsibilities:
- Review and coordinate electrical design deliverables: one-line diagrams, 34.5 kV / 13.8 kV MV collector and distribution design, switchgear specifications, protection and relay coordination, and grounding - across the owner's engineer, OEM, and EPC.
- Support power system studies: short-circuit/fault current (ETAP), load flow, arc flash, harmonics, and grid-forming BESS integration studies for islanded (off-grid) operation; track study inputs and reconcile results against equipment ratings.
- Coordinate generator electrical integration: genset alternator data, paralleling and controls interfaces, transformer and cable schedules, and factory/site acceptance test review.
- Maintain project electrical analyses: generation capacity and redundancy (N+X) cases, energization ramp sequencing, auxiliary load estimates, and BESS sizing inputs against load-swing requirements.
- Prepare and quality-check technical documents: RFIs, vendor technical requests, purchase order technical exhibits, and permit application electrical inputs; track vendor deliverables and interfaces to closure.
- Attend design reviews, factory witness tests, and site visits; support commissioning planning as the program moves to execution.
Required Skills:
- Working knowledge of MV power systems: switchgear, transformers, protective relaying, and cable systems; exposure to power system study tools (ETAP, SKM, or PSCAD) strongly preferred.
- Strong analytical and documentation skills - able to translate study results and vendor data into decision-ready summaries for senior stakeholders.
- Willingness to travel to project sites, factory tests, and vendor locations (~15-25%).
Required Experience:
- Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering (power systems emphasis preferred); EIT/FE a plus.
- 2-5 years of experience in power generation, utility/industrial electrical design, data centers, or EPC electrical engineering.
- Familiarity with any of the following is a plus: reciprocating engine gensets or turbines, BESS/inverter-based resources and grid-forming controls, islanded/microgrid operation, or NEC/IEEE standards for generation facilities.
Company Highlights:
- For 90 years, we have nurtured creative ideas and turned them into successful realities using three core strategic pillars - creativity, excellence, and people
- 401K - 12% employer contribution with no vesting period (6% Match and 6% non-matching contribution)
- Highly competitive compensation
- Hybrid work options available for most roles
- Five to eight weeks of PTO annually based on years of experience; eleven additional holidays per calendar year
- All Medical/Dental/Vision benefits start day one with the company; low employee premiums
- Education Assistance Program
- Free covered employee parking for Dallas HQ based employees
- Free specialty coffee bar in the Dallas HQ
- Onsite breakfast and lunch area in the Dallas HQ
