ID 2026-3775
Category Engineering Type Full Time Overview Within SSOE's Tool Install division, we specialize in high-tech Tool Installation design, offering top-tier design and engineering services to a diverse array of clients and markets. Our team is composed of highly skilled and knowledgeable professionals who excel across various disciplines. We pride ourselves on our cross-disciplinary approach, which allows us to understand and address our clients' needs more comprehensively than traditional, siloed methods. The Electrical Engineer - Pre-Assignment owns the integrity of the electrical pre-assignment database that drives semiconductor process tool hookup design. In this role you are accountable for ensuring every tool's electrical points of connection (POCs) are correctly assigned, capacity-validated, physically available in the field, and aligned with construction scope and schedule. You will work across equipment design, electrical system owners, project discipline engineers, A/E partners, and the client to keep pre-assignment data accurate as layouts evolve, tool scope changes, and new supplier data arrives. AI and Innovation At SSOE, we don't just talk about the future, we build it. As a leader in industry AI adoption, we empower our team to work smarter by providing responsible access to the industry leading AI Large Language Models, vibe-coding platforms, and securely integrating advanced tools into every role. From day one, you'll receive the training and support needed to leverage AI as a core tool for enhancing productivity, sparking creativity, and streamlining complex workflows. Responsibilities Maintain the completeness and accuracy of the electrical pre-assignment database in support of equipment (tool) design, including POC tags, panel/breaker assignments, load data, and tool-connection-to-facility-POC mapping.
Evaluate POC and capacity impacts to the pre-assignment database resulting from layout revisions, tool scope changes, new supplier data, and facilities equipment installations; incorporate changes and communicate downstream effects.
Coordinate electrical POC and capacity requirements against construction scope and schedule; identify gaps, conflicts, and long-lead risks and escalate to the appropriate team for resolution.
Interface daily with electrical system owners, project discipline engineers, A/E firms, and/or the client to resolve open issues and drive timely pre-assignment database updates.
Execute regular field walks to validate the physical availability of assigned POCs; identify anomalies, propose resolutions, and promptly escalate for closure.
Attend weekly Electrical Working Group (EWG) meetings, presenting pre-assignment status, open issues, and capacity constraints.
Identify and communicate improvement proposals for the electrical pre-assignment process, data quality controls, and cross-discipline project coordination. Qualifications Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or a closely related engineering discipline (or equivalent combination of education and directly relevant experience).
Experience with electrical power distribution for industrial or high-tech facilities.
Ability to read and interpret electrical one-lines, panel schedules, equipment layouts, and tool utility/connection specifications from suppliers.
Demonstrated experience with AutoCAD (or CAD viewer), Microsoft Office Suite (Excel, Word, Outlook, etc.) and can utilize a PDF markup and collaboration tool such as Adobe Acrobat or Bluebeam.
Demonstrated experience with engineering data management: tracking large sets of connection and capacity records, controlling revisions, and maintaining traceability.
Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to coordinate across multiple stakeholder groups and escalate issues clearly and constructively.
Willingness and ability to perform routine field walks in an active construction and/or cleanroom environment, including use of required PPE.
Working knowledge of the National Electrical Code (NEC) as it relates to tool pre-assignment activities (e.g., circuit sizing, system capacity, equipment/component ratings, etc.).
Salary Range:
$70,000 - $90,000/year depending on location, education, depth of relevant experience, and any specialized licensure/certifications. Opportunity for ample rewards, leadership incentive components, and generous bonus opportunities.
Benefits:
Includes comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance, life insurance, 401K retirement savings plan (with company matching), opportunities for professional development and training (including support for relevant licensure & certifications), and generous PTO & paid holidays. #LI-Hybrid
