Principal Electrical Engineer (High Voltage Systems)

Responsibilities

• Lead design and architecture of AC power systems, including low-, medium-, and high-voltage distribution (480V-15kV), grounding, protection, and system integration.
• Develop single-line diagrams and perform system studies (load flow, short-circuit, arc flash, protection coordination).
• Define and implement protection strategies, including relay selection, settings, and coordination.
• Design and integrate generator systems (1-5 MW), including synchronization, paralleling, and load sharing.
• Specify and integrate switchgear, transformers, breakers, and utility interconnections.
• Ensure compliance with NEC, IEEE, NFPA 70E, and other applicable standards.
• Lead installation, testing, commissioning, and troubleshooting of high-voltage systems.
• Lead utility interconnection efforts, including compliance with IEEE 1547 and regulatory requirements.
• Collaborate cross-functionally and with external partners (utilities, EPCs, vendors) to deliver integrated systems.
• Mentor engineers and help establish scalable design standards and engineering processes.

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering.
• 7+ years of experience in industrial AC power systems.
• Experience with medium- and high-voltage systems (480V-15kV), including 480V 3-phase distribution.
• Experience integrating MW-scale generator systems (1-5 MW).
• Strong background in power system studies (load flow, short-circuit, protection coordination, arc flash).
• Hands-on experience with protective relays (selection, settings, commissioning).
• Experience with utility interconnection and IEEE 1547 compliance.
• Knowledge of NFPA 70E and industrial electrical safety practices.
• Proven experience leading complex electrical systems as a technical owner or lead.

Additional Information

Remora is seeking a Principal Electrical Engineer to lead the architecture, design, and deployment of high-power AC electrical systems supporting industrial generation and distribution infrastructure. This is a hands-on technical leadership role with full ownership of electrical system strategy, high-voltage AC design, and technical execution from concept through commissioning. The ideal candidate brings deep expertise in 480V 3-phase industrial power, medium- and high-voltage distribution systems, and integration of 1-5 MW generator installations. You are equally comfortable defining system architecture and rolling up your sleeves-performing detailed power studies, developing schematics, guiding protection strategies, and troubleshooting complex high-voltage installations in the field. We're building modular carbon capture systems for vehicles - turning exhaust into beverage-grade CO2 sold to breweries and greenhouses. We deploy in regions facing severe CO2 shortages, where prices are highest, allowing us to generate high margins without tax credits or carbon credits. We've signed up some of the largest companies in the world to pilot our technology, including iconic multibillion-dollar brands, top trucking companies, and some of the most recognizable Fortune 100 companies. We've raised multiple rounds of funding from top investors like Lowercarbon Capital, Union Square Ventures, First Round Capital, Y Combinator, and Valor Equity Partners.
