## Description

Leidos is seeking a Lead Transmission Line Engineer – Innovation & Technology to join our EPC Solutions Team within Power Delivery Solutions. This hybrid role pairs about 75% hands-on lead engineering on major EPC transmission projects with about 25% technology product development, innovation, and client engagement.

**Lead Engineering & Process Development (~75%)**

- Serve as Lead Transmission Line Engineer on EPC projects, owning the transmission scope from design development through construction support

- Coordinate designers and collaborate with project management, other disciplines, procurement, construction partners, and project controls to meet scope, schedule, budget, and quality targets

- Develop and review calculations, drawings, specifications, and material requirements, and lead design and interdisciplinary reviews

- Support procurement and field teams with technical questions, design changes, and issue resolution, and interface with clients on technical matters

- Help build our EPC Transmission Line execution model: repeatable workflows, templates, design criteria, and QA/QC practices that reduce manual effort without sacrificing engineering rigor

**Technology Product Development & Business Growth (~25%)**

- Serve as the transmission engineering liaison to the Leidos technology product team, creating a continuous feedback loop between product development and real-world project execution

- Turn project workflows, pain points, and client needs into use cases, requirements, and product enhancements, and help prioritize what gets built

- Pilot and validate our transmission toolset on live projects, then document results and share them with leadership to guide development

- Join client demonstrations, technical discussions, and pursuits, using your hands-on experience to connect technology to real client challenges across utilities, EPC contractors, and developers

- Identify where technology-enabled engineering sets Leidos apart, and help turn successful demonstrations into new transmission work

**Career Growth & Impact**

- Technical growth: large, complex high-voltage programs that build deep expertise in advanced transmission design and large-scale EPC execution

- Two paths forward: EPC T-Line Engineering & Technology Manager (leading the team, its processes, and its technology), or Innovation & Business Development Lead (commercializing technology-enabled solutions and shaping strategic pursuits)

- Visibility: a direct communication path to senior Leidos Energy leadership, with no people-management duties required

- Impact beyond a single project: you’ll build processes, turn them into technology, prove them on active projects, and show clients the value, so each project makes the next one stronger and helps win more work

- Impact on the grid: your work will improve how transmission infrastructure is designed and delivered, and how power moves across the country

**What You’ll Bring to the Table (Required Qualifications)**

- Bachelor’s degree in Civil, Structural, Electrical, or Mechanical Engineering

- A minimum of 8 years of transmission line design experience, including lead or project engineer responsibilities

- Proficiency in PLS-CADD and PLS-POLE, and working knowledge of NESC and related standards

- Strong written and verbal communication skills, including client-facing experience

## Skills

### Required
- PLS-CADD
- PLS-POLE
- NESC
