Your new company


A well-established, multidisciplinary engineering consultancy delivering large, complex projects across healthcare, life sciences, mission critical, and infrastructure sectors. The firm has a strong presence in the Northeast and a reputation for technical excellence and long-term client relationships.

Your new role


As a Senior Electrical Engineer, you will lead electrical delivery during the construction phase of major projects.

  • Producing site visit reports and punch lists
  • Coordinating with mechanical, plumbing, fire protection, and controls disciplines
  • Mentoring and supporting junior electrical engineers involved in construction phase work
  • Design teams provide technical support where required, but you will own day to day electrical delivery during construction.
What you'll need to succeed
  • BS in Electrical Engineering
  • Relevant electrical engineering experience
  • Strong construction and sitebased background
  • Experience delivering complex, infrastructureheavy projects (healthcare, life science, data centers, transit, etc.)
  • Solid understanding of electrical systems and MEP coordination
  • Fire alarm design and construction experience (NYC experience advantageous)
  • Experience mentoring or leading engineers
  • Strong written communication and organizational skills
What you'll get in return
  • Base salary of $145,000-$160,000, with flexibility
  • Comprehensive benefits package including healthcare, retirement plan, and paid time off
  • Senior level responsibility on large, technically complex projects
  • Long term career opportunity within a stable and well respected consultancy
