• Produce PFD/P&ID inputs, interpret process equipment lists, and align with GA drawings.

• Lead interdisciplinary coordination; integrate with civil/structural, mechanical, process, and I&C.

• Review vendor submittals; extract electrical requirements and resolve gaps.

• Support field walks, data gathering, and construction/commissioning queries.

• Build/maintain design schedules and logic ties with other disciplines.

• Lead and mentor electrical engineers/designers; perform QA/QC of calculations and drawings.

What You'll Bring

• B.S. in Electrical Engineering (ABET); ability to obtain P.E. is required.

• 10+ years in consulting/industrial electrical design.

• Deep knowledge of NEC, power distribution (MV/LV), equipment specs, hazardous locations, grounding, and lighting.

• Demonstrated experience turning process information (P&IDs, equipment lists) into complete electrical scope.

• Proven cross-discipline coordination and vendor interface skills.

• AutoCAD and Revit proficiency; strong Word/Excel/Outlook.

• Clear written/verbal communication; analytical, organized, and proactive.

• Experience leading project teams and mentoring junior staff.

• Willingness to travel to client sites for field data and reviews.

Nice to Have
