We are seeking an experienced Electrical Design Engineer to join our team and develop electrical systems for high-rise buildings and large-scale commercial projects.

We are looking for someone with at least 5 years of building electrical design experience, advanced proficiency in Revit and AutoCAD, and the ability to produce coordinated, accurate, and construction-ready design packages.

Important: Relevant commercial building or high-rise electrical design experience is essential. Candidates with residential-only electrical design experience will not qualify.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design electrical systems for high-rise offices, condominiums, hotels, airports, municipal buildings, industrial facilities, and other complex commercial properties.
  • Prepare electrical plans, layouts, details, specifications, and construction documents using Revit and AutoCAD.
  • Perform electrical load calculations, establish system requirements, select equipment, and develop power distribution and lighting layouts.
  • Apply applicable electrical codes, building regulations, and engineering standards throughout the design process.
  • Review architectural, structural, and MEP drawings to identify design conflicts, omissions, and coordination issues.
  • Coordinate with mechanical, plumbing, fire protection, structural, and other design professionals to ensure integrated project documentation.
  • Review drawings and technical packages for accuracy, completeness, consistency, and constructability.
  • Respond to construction-phase questions, assist with technical coordination, and incorporate necessary design revisions.
  • Manage assigned design deliverables from initial development through final construction documentation.
  • Collaborate with our project managers and engineering teams to resolve technical challenges, meet project deadlines, and maintain design quality.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of electrical engineering or building systems design experience.
  • Required: Advanced proficiency in both Revit and AutoCAD.
  • Demonstrated experience designing electrical systems for high-rise buildings or complex commercial developments.
  • Experience with commercial facilities such as office buildings, condominiums, hotels, airports, industrial properties, or municipal buildings.
  • Strong knowledge of building electrical systems, electrical load calculations, applicable codes, and engineering design standards.
  • Ability to interpret and coordinate architectural, structural, electrical, and other MEP construction drawings.
  • Experience preparing detailed electrical designs and construction documentation.
  • Strong communication, coordination, organizational, and problem-solving skills.
  • Ability to manage multiple design assignments while maintaining accuracy and meeting deadlines.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience working for an MEP consulting firm, particularly in South Florida.

Benefits

  • Competitive salary based on experience and qualifications.
  • Health insurance options.
  • Retirement plan options.
  • Paid time off.
  • Additional company-sponsored benefits and programs.
