Job Description

Description:

The Electrical Design Engineer II develops complete engineering work under the guidance of senior technical staff while taking increasing ownership of coordination, quality, schedule, and communication. This role is expected to make sound design decisions within established criteria, support construction administration, and actively develop toward independent technical leadership.

  • Perform and document electrical load calculations, feeder and branch-circuit sizing, voltage-drop calculations, and equipment selections appropriate to the assigned level.
  • Design and coordinate normal and emergency power distribution, lighting and lighting controls, grounding/bonding, and electrical connections for building systems.
  • Develop one-line diagrams, panel schedules, lighting plans, power plans, details, schedules, and specifications that accurately communicate design intent.
  • Coordinate electrical requirements with mechanical, plumbing, fire protection, architectural, structural, civil, and specialty systems.
  • Support short-circuit, selective-coordination, arc-flash, generator, UPS, and other specialized studies when included in project scope.
  • Coordinate fire alarm, telecommunications, security, and other low-voltage systems when required by project scope, while clearly defining discipline boundaries.
  • Take ownership of defined systems or project areas from design development through construction documents.
  • Conduct site surveys and field investigations; document existing conditions accurately and incorporate findings into design.
  • Some travel is required to document existing conditions, meet with clients and project teams, and perform site observations and punch-list activities.
  • Must be comfortable using electronic devices such as iPads to document existing conditions, field observations, and client notes, and must be able, with or without reasonable accommodation, to safely climb ladders and access roofs, mezzanines, equipment rooms, and similar areas as required to perform job duties.
  • Support RFIs, submittal reviews, site observations, punch lists, and other construction-administration activities.
  • Track assigned work against project budgets and schedules; communicate status, risks, and needed decisions proactively.
  • Participate in QA/QC and begin reviewing defined portions of junior staff work.
  • Work with a high level of ownership, responsiveness, professionalism, and follow-through; communicate problems early and contribute constructively to team solutions.
  • Support a positive, accountable team culture by helping others succeed, accepting feedback professionally, sharing knowledge, and maintaining high standards for quality and effort.
  • Meet the role target utilization of 85% net over appropriate measurement periods while maintaining quality, client service, teamwork, and sound professional judgment.
Requirements:
  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Architectural Engineering, or a closely related ABET-accredited engineering program.
  • Typically 3-6 years of relevant electrical building-systems design, consulting engineering, or closely related experience.
  • EIT certification preferred; demonstrated progress toward PE licensure is encouraged where applicable.
  • Demonstrated ability to independently complete routine engineering calculations, coordinate systems, and produce construction documents.
  • Working knowledge of the NEC, building and energy codes, and common electrical design standards.
  • Autodesk Revit, Bluebeam, Microsoft 365, and applicable electrical calculation/lighting software; familiarity with AGi32, ETAP, EasyPower, SKM, or similar tools is beneficial depending on role.
  • Strong written and verbal communication, organization, attention to detail, and ability to manage multiple priorities in a remote professional environment.
  • Ability to collaborate effectively with engineers, designers, project managers, architects, clients, contractors, and other project stakeholders.
