Compensation: $90,000-$120,000 (DOE)

The Opportunity

Lead electrical design and project management for education and commercial buildings, coordinating across disciplines and with architects and owners. This PM-level role suits an Electrical PE with ~8-12 years in an MEP consulting environment who can own client interaction, run project meetings, and mentor junior staff.

What You'll Do (Key Responsibilities)

• Own projects end-to-end: scope, schedule, budgets, design delivery, QA/QC, construction support.
• Lead multi-discipline coordination (mechanical, plumbing, FP, technology/low-voltage, commissioning); interface closely with architects and owners.
• Execute electrical systems design for commercial and institutional facilities (focus on medium-voltage distribution within facilities; low-voltage experience is a plus).
• Produce/review Revit models and construction documents; ensure drawing/spec quality and NEC/NFPA and Florida code compliance.
• Develop designs for interior/exterior lighting, standby/emergency power, surge & lightning protection, grounding/bonding.
• Plan and run internal/external project meetings; document decisions, risks, and action items.
• Coordinate with AHJs and utilities; support submittal reviews, RFIs, site observations, and punch.
• Mentor/supervise junior engineers/designers as the team grows.

What You'll Bring (Qualifications)

• B.S. in Electrical Engineering.
• Active Florida PE (or ability to obtain via comity within 1 year).
• 8-12 years of electrical design experience in an MEP consulting firm (PM-level responsibility).
• Demonstrated expertise in:
  • Medium-voltage building distribution
  • Lighting (interior/exterior), standby power, surge/lightning protection
  • Revit (strong, hands-on proficiency);
    Word/Outlook/Excel familiarity
• Codes: Solid knowledge of NEC/NFPA and Florida/local electrical requirements (SREF/FBC exposure for K-12 is a plus).
• Strong client-facing communication skills-written, verbal, and presentation.
• Stability: Consistent tenure; we generally avoid resumes with many 1-2 year stints.

Nice to Have

• K-12 schools design experience (strong preference) and/or higher ed, healthcare, aviation, or government facilities.
• Experience coordinating low-voltage/systems (security, communications) alongside power.
• Prior team leadership and experience mentoring junior staff.
