Job Description

Electrical Design Engineer (EIT)

Harrison Gray Search has partnered with a leading electrical contractor to find a motivated Electrical Engineer (EIT) to join their growing team. This is a perfect opportunity for a professional with a few years of experience who is looking to transition from "learning the basics" to "owning the design" within a flexible and supportive work environment.

If you’re looking for a role that offers exposure to innovative projects and a direct path to professional growth, we want to hear from you.

The Role at a Glance

Working directly with the Director of Engineering, you will play a vital role in the planning and technical design of diverse construction projects. This is a high-visibility position where you’ll support everything from initial proposals and estimates to the final "as-built" drawings, ensuring every project is practical, efficient, and up to code.

Key Responsibilities

• Design Support: Assist the Director of Engineering with project design, estimation, and construction efforts for both traditional and design/build projects.
• Field Synergy: Ensure designs are not just theoretically sound but are practical for field installation and implementation.
• Process Improvement: Contribute to the development of consistent engineering and BIM standards across the company.
• Technical Documentation: Prepare clear, accurate specifications and technical drawings that meet both client needs and regulatory standards.
• Calculations: Perform necessary electrical calculations to establish benchmarks for construction and installation processes.
• Collaborative Liaison: Participate in project meetings and interact with clients to ensure design intent is maintained throughout the construction phase.

What You Bring to the Table

We are looking for a sharp, detail-oriented engineer who is ready to take the next step in their career.

• Education: Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or a related technical field.
• Certification: Successfully passed the FE exam and currently holds an active EIT status.
• Experience: 2–4 years of experience in engineering or construction (preferably in a consulting or design capacity).
• Tech Stack: Proficiency with AutoCAD and Revit is a must. Experience with SKM or similar power analysis software is highly preferred.
• Communication: Strong organizational skills and the ability to explain technical concepts to non-technical team members.

The Perks

• Comprehensive Benefits: Health, dental, and vision coverage.
• Retirement: 401k plan with company matching.
• Mobile Support: Vehicle/car allowance provided for travel between sites and offices.
• Culture: A business-casual, flexible environment that values work-life balance and professional development.

Location & Environment

Our client is open to candidates in the Charlotte, Raleigh, Greensboro, or Fayetteville regions.

• Schedule: Standard 8 AM – 5 PM hours, with flexibility as project deadlines require.
• Growth Path: Direct mentorship from senior leadership to help you progress toward your P.E. license.
