About the role

Cushing Terrell in Spokane, WA is seeking a Senior Power Systems Protection Engineer to lead design, analysis, and implementation of protection schemes for substations, distribution, and industrial facilities. You will guide relay settings, perform studies, and mentor a growing team while expanding the firm’s protection capabilities. Applicants should have a PE or be eligible, 8+ years of experience, and strong knowledge of NEC/NESC, ETAP, and code compliance.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
