Transmission Line Engineer

PTS Advance • Contract • Atlanta, Georgia • 4m ago

Details:

We're looking for a Transmission Line Engineer who can assist in the design of multiple overhead and underground T-Line projects.

What you'll be doing:

Take the lead on all things overhead transmission line design—from PLS-CADD modeling and line routing to structure analysis, sag-tension calculations, and clearance reports.
Handle design details like wire blowout, swing angles, damper recommendations, structure spotting, and wire selection.
Put together construction specs for materials, hardware, and high-voltage overhead transmission line (HV OH T-Line) structures.
Prepare detailed construction drawings and cost estimates.
Guide and mentor junior team members as they grow in their roles.
Over time, step into leadership opportunities—leading project teams and serving as a primary client contact.
Review technical work and provide quality oversight to keep projects on track.
Pitch in on other duties as needed—because no two days are the same.

What we're looking for:

Bachelor's degree in Engineering (required). EIT or PE license? Big plus.
At least 3 years of experience in routing and designing high-voltage overhead transmission line facilities (a master's degree in a related field can count as one year).
Experience with 69kV to 500kV line design preferred.
Familiarity with tools like PLS, PLS-CADD, and PLS-POLE is a bonus.
Strong communicator—both written and verbal—and comfortable working in a team environment.
A sharp eye for detail and solid problem-solving skills.
Organized, collaborative, and able to juggle multiple tasks.
Proficient with Microsoft Office and similar software.
