Company Overview
A growing engineering and consulting firm is expanding their presence in the data center and mission-critical infrastructure space. Their team is focused on delivering high-quality electrical design and project execution across complex, large-scale environments.
As they continue to scale this practice, they are seeking individuals who thrive in a hands-on, entrepreneurial environment and want to play a meaningful role in building something from the ground up.

- Support design of backup power systems including generators, UPS systems, and transfer schemes
- Coordinate with cross-functional teams (mechanical, structural, etc.) to ensure integrated design solutions
- Interface with utilities and support service entrance and infrastructure planning
- Participate in construction support activities including submittal reviews, RFIs, and commissioning
- Ensure compliance with applicable codes, standards, and best practices
- Contribute to mentoring junior engineers and helping build out the electrical team over time
Requirements
- Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering (ABET-accredited preferred)
- 7–10 years of electrical engineering experience, with strong hands-on design work
- Experience in power distribution and/or mission-critical environments (data centers strongly preferred)
- Professional Engineer (P.E.) license or actively pursuing with a defined timeline
- Proficiency with electrical design tools (AutoCAD, Revit, SKM or similar)
- Strong understanding of medium- and low-voltage systems, backup power, and redundancy design
- Ability to operate independently and take ownership of projects in a fast-paced environment
- Interest in contributing to a growing team and stepping into future leadership responsibilities
Compensation & Benefits
- Salary: Up to $165,000
- Full benefits package including medical, dental, vision, and 401(k)
- Hybrid work environment
- Clear path for career growth as the organization expands
