Electrical Engineer

The Electrical Engineer will help grow the firm’s internal engineering capability, along with

collaborating with external consultants, where applicable, and mechanical teams. This

individual is a licensed Professional Engineer who will design and produce stamped electrical

construction documents across healthcare, institutional, and commercial project portfolios,

coordinate electrical scope within the firm’s BIM environment, and serve as the internal

electrical authority from early design through construction administration.

The Electrical Engineer works in tandem with Mechanical Engineering teams to provide

complete in-house building systems coverage. In addition to power and lighting design, this

role includes coordination of fire alarm, low-voltage, AV/telecom, and security systems.

Healthcare project experience is highly preferred. The ability to work independently as the

sole in-house electrical engineer while collaborating effectively within a multidisciplinary

environment is essential.

• Design and produce stamped electrical construction documents across all project phases,including power distribution, lighting, emergency/standby power, and grounding systems.
• Perform electrical load calculations; size and specify service entrance equipment,switch gear, panel boards, transformers, and distribution systems appropriate to project typeand occupancy.
• Design interior and exterior lighting systems including fixture selection, photometricanalysis, lighting controls, and day lighting integration while ensuring compliance with applicable energy codes.
• Design emergency and standby power systems including generator sizing, automatictransfer switches, and essential electrical systems for healthcare and institutional occupancies.
• Coordinate fire alarm system scope with licensed fire alarm contractors and Authorities
• Having Jurisdiction (AHJ); produce fire alarm riser diagrams and device layouts forcontractor design-build packages where applicable.
• Coordinate low-voltage systems including structured cabling, AV/telecom, access control,and security/CCTV with licensed specialty contractors; produce system riser diagrams and infrastructure requirements.
• Coordinate electrical scope within the project BIM model; participate in multidisciplinarycoordination meetings and resolve conflicts with architectural, mechanical, structural, and civil teams.
• Coordinate with Mechanical Engineering teams regarding equipment power requirements,controls wiring, and Building Automation System (BAS) integration.
• Prepare electrical specifications across applicable Master Format divisions; review shop drawings and submittals during construction administration.
• Conduct site visits during construction to observe electrical installations, respond to RFIs, and confirm conformance with construction documents.
• Support business development initiatives by contributing to proposals and client presentations where in-house engineering capability is a differentiator.
• Establish electrical standards, typical details, and specification libraries as the engineeringpractice continues to expand.

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent required;
  Master’s degree preferred.
• Licensed Professional Engineer (PE) required — Electrical PE license required.
• Michigan registration or reciprocity eligibility required at time of hire.
• 7+ years of electrical engineering experience with demonstrated expertise in power distribution and lighting design for commercial, institutional, or healthcare projects.
• Experience in an AEC firm or related multidisciplinary design environment preferred.
• Experience designing emergency and standby power systems; familiarity with NFPA 110
• (Emergency and Standby Power) and NFPA 99 (Healthcare Facilities) strongly preferred.
• Working knowledge of fire alarm, low-voltage, AV/telecom, access control, and security systems coordination within an A/E project delivery environment.
• Proficiency in Revit and AutoCAD required.
• Familiarity with applicable building codes, NEC requirements, energy codes, and engineering standards.
• Healthcare or institutional project experience preferred; familiarity with essential…
