Transmission line/power engineers; how often do you get recruiters hitting you up for mechanical/gearbox transmission engineering? I'm about ready to put a disclaimer up front and center on LinkedIn for people to stop sending me EE jobs because I am not that guy.

I got poached to work as a technical PM for my local utility company and I'm not even an EE. Very low-stress slow-moving stuff compared to engineering deadlines and there seems to be forever amounts of work on account of the dual needs of infrastructure updates and growth of renewables. Certainly couldn't hurt to look up who's providing you power and make a pitch.

E; lol was not expecting to be beaten on this

I went to car school and ended up working for a series of auto suppliers and one of the big 3, then ended up at a consultancy focused on transmissions. A decade of experience in automotive/gear design drove me crazy and eventually I responded to one of the many recruiters trying to talk to me about transmission lines. I think about going back to work in a pizza shop a lot.

I told my manager that there were much better ways to do some core processes but I was only interested in going above and beyond to implement them if I got paid for my time
