We are seeking a highly motivated Lead Electrical Engineer with deep expertise in Power System Analysis to support a growing portfolio of commercial projects. This is a strategic role for someone ready to step into leadership, mentor junior engineers, and eventually grow into a Director of Engineering position.

 Key Responsibilities

  • Collaborate with architects, mechanical engineers, and project managers to deliver integrated solutions.
  • Provide quality control and peer reviews for electrical designs and studies.

  • Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering.
  • Minimum 7 years of experience in electrical design for commercial buildings, with a focus on power systems.
  • Proficiency in SKM Power Tools, ETAP, or EasyPower.
  • Strong leadership and mentorship capabilities.

 Ideal Candidate Profile
  • 15+ years of experience with a PE license.
  • Proven leadership or management experience.
  • At least 5 years of hands-on Power System Analysis.
  • Stable work history – candidates with frequent job changes (1–3 years per role) will not be considered.
  • Detail-oriented and capable of growing into a Director-level role.

Considered Candidates
  • 7+ years of experience with PE or EIT actively pursuing PE.
  • Strong design background with interest in transitioning into Power System Analysis.
  • Demonstrated leadership traits and ability to quickly learn SKM studies and grow into a leadership role.

 Note: This is not a power and lighting design role. Design work is minimal and limited to adjustments and minor redesigns in AutoCAD.

 Career Path

This role is designed to evolve into a Director of Engineering position. The selected candidate will eventually manage the engineering team while senior leadership focuses on business development and strategic oversight.
