  • Electrical Engineering Design: Perform all aspects of electrical engineering design, focusing on power distribution. This includes conceptual studies, design analyses, calculations, equipment selection, and system layout for industrial process design and site electrical utilities.
  • Client Engagement: Meet with clients to prepare and validate the proposed scope of work for electrical engineering services.
  • Project Oversight: Oversee and coordinate electrical engineering projects, ensuring alignment with client budgets, contracts, goals, objectives, and deadlines.
  • Team Coordination: Supervise and communicate with multi-disciplinary teams to ensure seamless integration of electrical design with other disciplines.
  • Staff Management: Direct, supervise, train, and ensure quality control for electrical engineers, EITs, and designers.
  • Quality Control: Ensure staff compliance with quality control policies and conduct QC reviews for other engineers and designers.
  • Documentation: Prepare and supervise the preparation of accurate electrical project programming, schematic designs, design development, and construction documents.
  • Bidding Process Support: Provide electrical engineering support during the bidding process, including preparing addenda, amendments, and responding to RFIs.
  • Construction Phase Services: Represent the firm on-site, answer RFIs, review shop drawings, and prepare As-built drawings.
  • Technical Input: Offer technical guidance, value engineering, and industry best practices.
  • Independent and Collaborative Work: Work independently with minimal supervision while collaborating effectively with other engineers and designers.
  • Mentorship: Mentor engineering staff to foster their professional development.
  • Marketing and Business Development: Actively support company marketing and business development activities.
  • Client Relationships: Establish and maintain positive client relationships.
  • Process Improvement: Assist in developing new and revised processes and procedures.
  • Other Duties: Perform additional responsibilities as assigned by project leaders and senior management.

Project-Specific Duties:

  • Project Management: Perform Project Manager duties and serve as Lead Project Engineer on assigned projects.
  • Discipline Design: Design and document industrial process electrical systems, developing discipline design approaches and methodologies.
  • Project Planning: Develop project plans, budgets, schedules, and reports for electrical disciplines.
  • Coordination: Coordinate work products with other disciplines and ensure adherence to project budgets and schedules.
  • Quality Assurance: Perform QA/QC reviews on assigned projects and approve discipline code analyses.
  • Client Interaction: Respond to RFIs and owner review comments, back-check discipline QC comments, and ensure compliance with project specifications.
  • Travel: Potential travel up to 20%.

Education, Technology, and Experience:

  • Experience: 10+ years of significant design and practice experience in a leadership role within an industrial or multi-discipline A&E firm.
  • Education: Graduate of an ABET-accredited engineering program in Electrical Engineering or Electrical Engineering Technology.
  • Licensing: Fully licensed Professional Engineer in at least one US state, preferably in the local jurisdiction.
  • Professional Organizations: Active participation in IEEE, IES, or other related professional organizations is desirable.
  • Software Proficiency: Familiarity with SKM Power Tools or equivalent, Microsoft Office, AutoCAD, MicroStation, and BIM.
  • Additional Skills: Strong experience in designing power distribution, lighting, and communication systems. Familiarity with MSHA standards and Design/Build and EPC project delivery methods is desirable.

Additional Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities:

  • Ability to prepare effective and concise documents and make presentations to various groups.
  • Possesses technical precision, creative design skills, and a client-oriented attitude.
  • Commitment to professional development and mentoring less experienced staff.
  • Ability to work well in a team environment and lead by example.

Physical Requirements:

  • The role is primarily sedentary and performed in an office setting with light, heat, and ventilation. It may require extended periods of standing, sitting, and minimal lifting. Reasonable accommodations can be made for individuals with disabilities.

Workplace Flexibility:
