The Procurement Engineer supports the Procurement Lead for electrical scopes across drawing review, scope development, pricing, and buyout. This role is for a developing electrical professional with field experience who wants to learn how the work goes together, how it is priced, and how it is bought. Constructability, sequencing, trade coordination, and scope of work knowledge are at the core of this role, and you will grow them here.

Supports power distribution, switch gear, transformers, UPS and generators, busway, lighting, fire alarm, and low voltage packages on large-scale Data Center, Industrial, Life Science, Commercial, and Institutional projects. Candidates must bring prior hands‑on field experience and a working knowledge of how the work is built. Team members are expected to cross-train in other scopes so the team can flex as project needs shift.

• Review electrical drawings, one-line diagrams, equipment schedules, and specifications with the Procurement Lead and perform conduit, wire, device, and equipment takeoffs
• Draft scopes of work, inclusions, exclusions, and trade responsibility matrices, including owner-furnished equipment, utility work, temporary power, and testing responsibilities
• Log drawing conflicts and missing information, and prepare RFIs for resolution before bid

• Support constructability and sequencing reviews; document rough-in sequence, gear setting, energization, prefabrication, and delivery assumptions
• Identify potential trade clashes and scope gaps (embedded conduit and duct banks, housekeeping pads, grounding, mechanical equipment connections, and utility interfaces) and bring them to the lead early

• Build labor and material pricing breakouts: switch gear and major equipment, conduit and wire, devices and fixtures, prefabrication, installation labor by system and area, terminations, testing, and commissioning support

• Review payment applications and stored equipment backup for accuracy
• Prepare change event pricing comparisons and maintain cost tracking logs
• Help maintain scope libraries, pricing templates, and lessons learned
• Cross-train across other scopes to build breadth and support the team where volume is heaviest

• 2 to 5 years of experience in construction procurement, estimating, project engineering, or electrical contracting
• Hands‑on field experience required, such as field engineer, on‑site project engineer, or construction internship
• Ability to read electrical drawings, one-line diagrams, panel schedules, and specifications, and perform…
