Responsibilities

• Lead the engineering design and documentation of large-scale and complex electrical systems—such as multi-level distribution, emergency power, lighting controls, and low-voltage infrastructure—from concept through construction
• Approve and apply advanced electrical calculations (e.g., short circuit analysis, voltage drop, coordination studies) to support system sizing, equipment selection, and performance verification
• Direct the setup and refinement of Revit models for electrical scope, including template usage, view strategies, and coordination workflows
• Standardize electrical Revit workflows across teams and lead the development of firmwide modeling tools, families, and system templates
• Integrate electrical systems across disciplines, resolving coordination challenges with architectural, structural, mechanical, and civil design partners
• Serve as the technical lead for electrical coordination with clients, consultants, and internal teams
• Lead submittal reviews, RFI responses, and value engineering analysis for electrical scope, ensuring code compliance and performance integrity
• Conduct field visits, lead construction observation efforts, and issue high-quality field reports documenting electrical progress and issues
• Define electrical system strategies aligned with budget, performance, maintainability, and schedule requirements, influence system decisions early in the design process
• Develop and lead QAQC plans for electrical documentation; guide milestone reviews and apply firmwide drafting and modeling standards
• Mentor junior engineers and electrical designers, providing real-time coaching, delegation guidance, and professional development support
• Develop onboarding content, technical training sessions, and reusable tools that support electrical team development and consistency
• Collaborate with project managers and firm leadership on fee development, staffing strategies, and discipline resourcing for electrical work
• Lead technical segments of meetings with clients, building officials, and consultants, communicating electrical design direction and resolving complex issues
• Guide electrical response strategies to field conditions, code conflicts, and VE proposals with clarity and ownership
• Influence client expectations around quality, performance, technical decisions, and lifecycle outcomes of electrical systems

Skills

• Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering or equivalent required
• P.E. licensure required
• Ability to lead an electrical team in the successful execution of large-scale, complex mission critical projects is required
• An understanding of the financial status of projects as they progress, development of cost budgets for projects, value of client relationships and being able to deliver projects with a focus on the quality is required
• Written and verbal communication skills commensurate with the position required
• Strong organizational skills required
