This role is suited to an experienced MEP consulting professional who can independently oversee design packages, guide technical decisions, coordinate across disciplines, and maintain engineering quality from design through construction support.

Key Responsibilities

-   Produce, review, and approve electrical drawings, construction documents, engineering calculations, technical specifications, and design submissions.
-   Develop and coordinate electrical plans using Revit and AutoCAD.
-   Perform and review electrical load calculations, equipment sizing and selection, power distribution, lighting layouts, and building electrical system designs.
-   Provide technical leadership on complex engineering challenges, design conflicts, and interdisciplinary coordination issues.
-   Coordinate electrical requirements with architectural, mechanical, plumbing, structural, and other engineering teams.
-   Verify that designs comply with applicable building and electrical codes, engineering standards, constructability requirements, and project specifications.
-   Work directly with clients, contractors, and project stakeholders to clarify requirements and resolve technical concerns.
-   Review RFIs, revise drawings, and address design changes and technical questions during construction.
-   Apply professional engineering judgment and Florida PE expertise to uphold design integrity and technical standards.
-   Coach junior engineers and designers, review their work, and contribute to their technical development.

## Requirements

-   Ability to independently manage electrical design deliverables, review technical work, and maintain project quality.
-   Strong technical judgment, interdisciplinary coordination, communication, and problem-solving skills.

**Preferred:** Current or previous employment with an MEP consulting firm in South Florida.
