• Prepares design documents under the supervision of experienced engineering and design staff.
• Supports the review of shop drawings for conformance to plans and specifications.
• Assists with engineering calculations as directed.
• May support business development or pursuit activities under direct supervision.
• Occasionally participates in client, company and/or industry events.
• Fosters a client‑centric mindset and approach.
• Partners with experienced engineering and design staff to understand client requirements and scope of work.
• Acts as a liaison to inform engineering and design teams of client and architect questions and relays responses.
• May visit job sites for observation and learning and development opportunities.
• Identifies and seeks to fill gaps in industry and/or discipline knowledge on a continuous basis.
• Acquires knowledge and fundamentals of common industry software, including Revit, Bluebeam Revu and Microsoft Office products.

• 9+ years of experience in electrical engineering within the MEP and/or construction industry, with a strong emphasis on mission critical and data center projects.
• Proven experience supporting the design and delivery of electrical systems for data centers including power distribution, redundancy strategies, and uptime/reliability considerations.
• Advanced to expert proficiency in electrical engineering design, with deep knowledge of applicable codes, standards, and mission critical best practices (e.g., NEC, redundancy topologies, selective coordination, arc flash).
• Demonstrated ability to lead discipline coordination and manage complex, large‑scale data center project scopes, including fast‑track schedules and multi‑phase builds.
• Professional Engineer (PE) license highly preferred (required for Engineers of Record); FE/EIT certification strongly preferred.
• Industry certifications such as RCDD, NICET, CPD, LEED, or WELL are highly desirable; mission critical/data center‑specific credentials are a plus.
• Hands‑on experience with data center electrical infrastructure, including UPS systems, generators, paralleling switch gear, PDUs, grounding, and backup power systems.
• Proficiency in engineering and design tools including Revit, Bluebeam Revu, SKM/ETAP (or similar), and Microsoft Office Suite.
• Strong understanding of A&E practices specific to mission critical environments, including constructability, commissioning, and coordination with mechanical/cooling systems.
• High technical aptitude with the ability to quickly learn and apply new technologies, systems, and evolving data center design standards.
• Demonstrated critical thinking and problem‑solving skills in high‑stakes environments where reliability and uptime are essential.
• Effective communication skills with the ability to collaborate across multidisciplinary teams, clearly convey technical concepts, and proactively identify risks.
• Strong sense of accountability, reliability, and commitment to precision, quality, and ethical engineering practices.
• Collaborative mindset with openness to feedback and continuous improvement in fast‑paced, high‑demand project environments.
