Full job description
Description
Engineering excellence, built on people-first values.
At LUZCO, we’re more than an engineering firm — we’re a familia. We pair technical excellence with a culture rooted in respect, flexibility, and genuine care for one another. Here, you're known by name, supported as a whole person, and encouraged to bring your authentic self to work with competitive benefits, and the flexibility to support life both inside and outside of work.
We’re proud to be a 2025 and 2026 Best Place to Work in St. Louis and a woman-owned, minority-owned boutique firm, delivering impactful engineering solutions in a workplace where people feel valued and empowered to grow.
Why You’ll Love LUZCO
Benefits that take care of you: Top-notch medical, dental, and vision insurance; a competitive 401k match; generous PTO; student loan repayment assistance; bonus opportunities that reward performance and impact; and an employee recognition platform that celebrates your wins big and small.
Flexibility that fits your life: We get that life doesn’t always stick to a schedule. You’ll work with your supervisor to create a schedule that’s flexible and works for both you and the team.
Diversity that fuels innovation: Our team brings together a wide range of backgrounds, perspectives, and experiences. That diversity isn’t just something we talk about; it’s what drives our creativity and helps us find better ways to solve problems.
Growth that feels personal: Whether you’re continuing your education, earning new certifications, or stepping into new challenges, we’re here to help you grow in the direction that’s right for you. You’ll collaborate with experienced mentors and leaders who want to see you succeed.
A culture that gives back: We’re passionate about our communities. Every year, we dedicate paid time off for volunteering and encourage our team to use their talents to make a difference whether that’s mentoring students, serving local nonprofits, or getting hands-on in community projects.
A workplace that feels like you: We keep things relaxed and welcoming. Expect weekly happy hours, team lunches, a stocked kitchen, dogs in the office, and a casual dress code. It’s a space where you can be yourself and do your best work.
The Role
As a Distribution Portfolio Engineer, you'll help utility clients make smarter, more strategic infrastructure investment decisions that support the reliability and future growth of the electric grid. Working at the intersection of engineering, planning, project management, and client strategy, you'll partner with stakeholders to develop long-term capital investment plans, evaluate project priorities, and help shape programs that deliver lasting value.
This role is a great fit for an engineer who enjoys looking at the bigger picture, solving complex challenges, and collaborating with a wide range of teams to drive meaningful results. You'll have the opportunity to work directly with clients, influence key planning decisions, and contribute to projects that make a real impact on the communities we serve.
What Your Day Will Look Like
Develop and maintain long-range capital investment portfolios for utility clients.
Partner with engineering, operations, project management, and client teams to identify current and future infrastructure needs.
Support the development and execution of multi-year capital investment plans.
Identify opportunities to optimize project sequencing, improve efficiency, and maximize the value of capital investments.
Assist in developing project scopes, schedules, cost estimates, and funding strategies.
Review engineering, financial, and project data to support planning and investment decisions.
Analyze portfolio data to identify trends, risks, gaps, and opportunities for improvement.
Support equipment planning efforts, including transformer and distribution asset planning.
Coordinate across multiple teams to address project dependencies, resource constraints, and execution challenges.
Contribute to process improvement initiatives, automation efforts, and portfolio management best practices.
Support the development of standards, templates, and governance processes that improve consistency and efficiency.
Provide training, knowledge sharing, and support as new planning tools and processes are implemented.
Candidates should be comfortable with occasional travel, including visits to client sites and utility facilities.
Requirements
What You'll Bring to the Familia
Essentials to Succeed:
Bachelor's degree in Engineering from an accredited university.
3+ years of experience in utility planning, transmission, distribution, or substation engineering.
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
Exceptional organizational skills and attention to detail.
Excellent communication and relationship-building abilities.
Ability to manage multiple priorities and collaborate across diverse teams.
What Will Make You Stand Out:
Experience supporting capital projects, utility programs, or infrastructure planning initiatives.
Interest in strategic planning, data analysis, and process improvement.
Experience working directly with utility clients or cross-functional project teams.
Ready to Make an Impact? We know you might not check every single box on the job description—and that’s totally fine. At LUZCO, we care about potential, collaboration, and diverse perspectives. If you’re passionate about joining a supportive and innovative team, we encourage you to apply and show us what you can bring to the familia.
