Nexus Engineering Group is employee-owned, full-service, and growing our Substation Department. As a Substation Engineer – Protection & Controls, you’ll develop the protection, control, and wiring design of high-voltage substation projects — and grow from production support toward independent design. You’ll produce the single-line and three-line diagrams, schematics, and wiring documentation — including protective relaying and SCADA/automation scope — that keep substations running safely and reliably. Working alongside a collaborative team of engineers and designers, you’ll take on more ownership as you develop, building toward independent design of substation protection and control packages.
