Lummus Technology is seeking a highly skilled and innovative Electrical Engineer to support the design, development, and deployment of electrified heaters and furnaces, including both hybrid-electric and fully electric systems. This role will be part of a multidisciplinary team working on cutting-edge electrification technologies for industrial heating applications. The ideal candidate will bring deep expertise in medium- to low-voltage power systems and power electronics, with a strong ability to drive innovation and support the development of electrification products and services. This includes conceptual design development for interconnections ranging from KVA to MVA, detailed design reviews, coordination with design consultants, protection strategy development, procurement and bidding support for major equipment, and on-site commissioning support. The role also involves performing economic feasibility analyses—evaluating capital investment, emissions impact, and operational costs. The engineer will collaborate with cross-functional teams to conceive, develop, and commercialize technology and equipment solutions that enable the electrification of industrial processes using renewable power.
