Electrical Field Engineer / QA-QC – Medium Voltage
Locations:
- Clarksville, Tennessee – 100% Onsite
- Clarksville, Arkansas – 100% Onsite
Project Start Date: February 1, 2027
Assignment: Expected to last 12-18 months
Start: ASAP – candidates must be able to mobilize to the site quickly
Position Overview
We are seeking an experienced Electrical Field Engineer / QA-QC professional to provide onsite construction support for a large, complex mission-critical facility and substation. This position will work directly with electrical contractors and the engineering/design team to verify construction quality, interpret design requirements, resolve field issues, and support timely project execution.
This is a field-focused electrical engineering role supporting medium- to high-voltage utility-scale construction projects, rather than a traditional office-based design engineering or building systems engineering position. Hands-on medium-voltage electrical construction experience is required, with high-voltage substation experience strongly preferred.
Key Responsibilities
- Provide onsite electrical construction and QA/QC support.
- Review electrical installations against drawings, specifications, one-lines, and design intent.
- Inspect and evaluate medium-voltage distribution systems and associated equipment.
- Support installation, testing, energization, startup, and turnover activities.
- Identify installation deficiencies, field conflicts, and construction issues requiring corrective action.
- Work directly with electrical contractors to investigate and resolve field conditions.
- Review electrical construction drawings, one-line diagrams, equipment documentation, and specifications.
- Support field activities involving switchgear, transformers, distribution equipment, and related systems.
- Document field observations, quality concerns, deficiencies, and corrective actions.
- Resolve appropriate field issues independently while quickly escalating design-related questions to the Engineer of Record/design team.
- Coordinate electrical work with mechanical, controls, and other project disciplines.
Requirements:
Qualifications
- 5+ years of relevant electrical construction, engineering, commissioning, or QA/QC experience.
- Hands-on medium-voltage electrical experience required.
- High-voltage substations projects preferred
- Strong knowledge of medium-voltage distribution, transformers, switchgear, and associated electrical equipment.
- Experience with electrical installation, testing, energization, startup, and/or commissioning.
- Ability to interpret electrical one-lines, construction drawings, specifications, and equipment documentation.
- Significant onsite construction and contractor coordination experience.
- Strong QA/QC mindset and ability to recognize installation or construction deficiencies.
- Ability to work independently and make sound field decisions within assigned authority.
- Strong communication, documentation, and problem-solving skills.
- Data center or power-generation experience strongly preferred; comparable large-infrastructure experience will be considered.
- Engineering degree preferred but not required with significant relevant field experience.

How do I get a electrical engineer job in Dallas?
Focus your search on Dallas's strongest hiring sectors: energy and utilities along the Stemmons Freeway corridor, defense contractors in the Las Colinas and Irving area, and semiconductor or telecom firms in the Richardson Telecom Corridor. Candidates with power systems, embedded systems, or RF engineering experience tend to move fastest. Tailoring your resume to the specific discipline a Dallas employer works in gives you a clear edge over generalist applicants.
Which companies hire electrical engineers in Dallas?
Employers hiring electrical engineers in Dallas right now include AECOM, Atwell, and Ameresco, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Dallas attracts a mix of large defense and energy primes, regional utilities, and growing semiconductor and industrial automation firms, so openings exist across employer sizes and specialties.
Are there remote electrical engineer jobs in Dallas?
Yes, though remote work is limited for electrical engineers because most roles involve hands-on lab work, site visits, or hardware testing. About 50% of electrical engineer openings tied to Dallas are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, with hybrid arrangements more common than fully remote.

How can I get a electrical engineer job in Dallas with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path in Dallas is through internships or co-op programs with the area's defense and energy employers, many of which maintain structured early-career pipelines. Look for associate or junior engineer titles at industrial automation firms in the Irving and Carrollton areas, or entry-level roles at regional utilities. A degree from UT Dallas or Texas A&M, combined with any lab or project experience, carries strong recognition with Dallas hiring managers.
