Electrical Design Engineer
Location:
Smyrna, GA (30082) Pay: $31.25–$33.65/hr (higher possible for strong Revit, internships, or post-grad experience)
Schedule:
M–F | Onsite | 6-Month Temp-to-Direct
We're hiring an Electrical Design Engineer to support power and lighting design for major commercial, industrial, and mission-critical projects. This role is perfect for someone who wants to work inside an engineering team embedded within an electrical construction firm—not a jobsite trailer role. You'll collaborate with Project Engineers on large, high-profile projects for global brands while developing real-world engineering and construction expertise.
What You'll Do:
- Model electrical systems in Revit (highly critical) and create power/lighting layouts
- Assist with short circuit and coordination studies in SKM (can be taught)
- Apply the National Electrical Code while laying out building electrical systems
- Build or update Revit families as needed
- Produce reports, documentation, and drawing packages
- Print and prepare large-scale drawing sets for field and PM support
- Improve workflows by writing small macros in Excel or Java Script
- Support high-quality engineering deliverables with strong attention to detail
What You Need:
- BSEE or BSEET required
- Revit proficiency required (sharp users who can build families preferred)
- Strong attention to detail and accuracy
- Preferred: 3+ years of electrical design for commercial, industrial, or mission-critical projects
- Preferred: SKM Power Tools experience
Open to December Grads:
Recent graduates are encouraged to apply—especially those with internship experience, Revit exposure, or leadership roles in engineering clubs.
Why This Role Stands Out:
You'll work in an Electrical Engineering Contractor environment—meaning you gain design experience and understand real-world field constructability. This team handles major electrical distribution, lighting, fire alarm, security, BAS, IoT, AV, and mission-critical power systems for clients like Facebook, Google, Microsoft, and Coca-Cola.
Additional Details:
- No sponsorship (US Citizen or Permanent Resident only)
- Very limited travel
- Overtime as needed (OT at 1.5x bill rate)
- Background check required (felonies likely disqualifying due to client requirements)
- 5-panel drug screen
