• Ability to create or edit construction specifications and drawings covering electrical, and peer review of controls and IT/telecommunication sections
• Willingness to design and detail systems at least through a Design Development / FEL-3 project phase
• Ability to prioritize and manage competing priorities through organized and data driven reasoning. Looking for a candidate who can own decision making within the electrical discipline and present clear reasoning for design decisions
• Proficient in the use of Revit and AutoCAD
• Experience sourcing and specifying mechanical equipment and executing the RFP process

• We are looking for an Electrical Building Infrastructure Engineer to shape the future deployments of Heirloom’s carbon technology
• You will be integral to removing millions of tons of CO2 by developing efficient electrical solutions based on your experience and strong fundamental analysis
• We are designing structures that look like buildings from the outside, but are totally novel, efficient airflow machines working with the elements to draw down the CO2 in the atmosphere
• The electrical systems are the backbone to the equipment and technology, as we plan to run these plants off of 100% renewable, electrical power
• This role is critical for Heirloom to efficiently design systems that balance lead times, cost of system and risk to operations as our demands fluctuate
• We are looking for a highly motivated lead electrical design engineer who will use industry experience to design electrical systems that can be scalably integrated within our plant designs and deployments
• You will rely on first principle thinking to develop design concepts on the building infrastructure team, which is the integration point between technology and project deployment teams
• Develop and design electrical systems
• Derive loads from first principles and provide detailed sizing of systems for costing, procurement and construction detailing
• Manage electrical inputs into Equipment Utility Matrix and perform load calculations for the development of single lines, panel designs, routing plans, equipment selection, etc
• Challenge the existing designs and provide analytical trade-off studies for different concepts
• Close collaboration with the entire building infrastructure design team for holistic design approach and documentation
• Develop and improve project workflows and standards to ensure each design is consistently excellent
• Responsible for creating and maintaining technical design documentation, including mechanical requirements documentation via Owner Project Requirements (OPR), Basis of Design (BoD), Specifications, and Design Philosophy
• Collaborate closely with Supply Chain, Commercialization and Equipment Design teams
• Collaborate closely with internal Project team and external EPC for successful hand-off of designs for construction documentation phases

• Excellent health, dental and vision insurance covered up to 100% by Heirloom (FSA option)

According to the UN, in order to avoid climate disaster the world needs to both reduce carbon emissions and actively remove CO₂ from the atmosphere. Heirloom develops a technology to handle the latter, using limestone to capture carbon directly from the air and permanently store it - and in doing so delivering high-quality carbon credits for businesses to purchase.
