Electrical Design Engineer

Electrical Design Engineer

Location: Smyrna, GA (30082) Pay: $31.25–$33.65/hr (higher possible for strong Revit, internships, or post-grad experience) Schedule: M–F | Onsite | 6-Month Temp-to-Direct

We're hiring an Electrical Design Engineer to support power and lighting design for major commercial, industrial, and mission-critical projects. This role is perfect for someone who wants to work inside an engineering team embedded within an electrical construction firm—not a jobsite trailer role. You'll collaborate with Project Engineers on large, high-profile projects for global brands while developing real-world engineering and construction expertise.

What You'll Do:

• Model electrical systems in Revit (highly critical) and create power/lighting layouts
• Assist with short circuit and coordination studies in SKM (can be taught)
• Apply the National Electrical Code while laying out building electrical systems
• Build or update Revit families as needed
• Produce reports, documentation, and drawing packages
• Print and prepare large-scale drawing sets for field and PM support
• Improve workflows by writing small macros in Excel or JavaScript
• Support high-quality engineering deliverables with strong attention to detail

What You Need:

• BSEE or BSEET required
• Revit proficiency required (sharp users who can build families preferred)
• Strong attention to detail and accuracy
• Preferred: 3+ years of electrical design for commercial, industrial, or mission-critical projects
• Preferred: SKM Power Tools experience

Open to December Grads: Recent graduates are encouraged to apply—especially those with internship experience, Revit exposure, or leadership roles in engineering clubs.

Why This Role Stands Out: You'll work in an Electrical Engineering Contractor environment—meaning you gain design experience and understand real-world field constructability. This team handles major electrical distribution, lighting, fire alarm, security, BAS, IoT, AV, and mission-critical power systems for clients like Facebook, Google, Microsoft, and Coca-Cola.

Additional Details:

• No sponsorship (US Citizen or Permanent Resident only)
• Very limited travel
• Overtime as needed (OT at 1.5x bill rate)
• Background check required (felonies likely disqualifying due to client requirements)
• 5-panel drug screen
