Electrical Engineer

About us: Pacifico Energy is a global energy infrastructure firm supporting complex, large load projects from development through to operations. The company serves as a trusted partner across engineering, financing, construction, and optimization, delivering tailored power solutions for large energy users, including data centers. With a proven international track record and over 15 years as a large-scale developer, Pacifico brings speed and knowledgeable oversight to projects from start to finish. The Power Plant Electrical Engineer will own the electrical scope across the full project lifecycle — from conceptual design and FEED through detailed engineering, procurement, construction, and commissioning for power generation systems that integrate gas turbines, PV solar, BESS, and other technologies to meet the unique energy demands of large industrial facilities and data centers. In the early phases, the role focuses on defining high-level electrical layouts, power distribution, grid integration, and equipment specifications to optimize performance and reliability. During the EPC stage, the engineer will drive detailed electrical design, review vendor and EPC contractor deliverables, provide construction and site engineering support, and lead electrical commissioning through to energization and handover. The engineer will collaborate with mechanical, civil, and control teams to ensure a fully integrated power solution. What you get to do: Conceptual Design & FEED Stage Conceptual Electrical System Design: Develop preliminary single-line diagrams (SLDs), electrical layouts, and system architectures for gas turbines, solar PV, and battery energy storage systems (BESS). Define power distribution strategies, including HV and MV network configurations. Conduct load flow analysis, fault studies, and short-circuit calculations to determine optimal electrical system parameters. Assess transformer, switchgear, and power conversion requirements to ensure system efficiency. Gri
