We’re looking for an experienced Electrical Design Engineer to develop building electrical systems for high-rise and large-scale commercial projects. The successful candidate will bring strong Revit and AutoCAD capabilities, hands-on experience producing construction-ready design packages, and the ability to coordinate technical work across multiple engineering disciplines.

Key Responsibilities

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

## Requirements

-   5+ years of electrical engineering or building systems design experience; experience in an MEP consulting firm is preferred.

-   **Advanced proficiency in both Revit and AutoCAD is required.**
-   Experience with commercial facilities such as office buildings, condominiums, hotels, airports, industrial properties, or municipal buildings.

-   Experience preparing detailed electrical designs and construction documentation.
-   Strong communication, coordination, organization, and problem-solving skills.
-   Ability to manage multiple design assignments while maintaining accuracy and meeting project deadlines.

**Preferred:** Previous experience working for an MEP consulting firm in South Florida.
