Project Engineer - Commercial Electrical Construction

Project Engineer

We are hiring a hands-on Project Engineer to support healthcare, hospital, university, and institutional electrical construction projects within a self-performing electrical contractor.

We are specifically looking for someone with direct commercial electrical construction experience who wants to grow into a Project Manager role. The right candidate will understand how project documentation, material procurement, field coordination, BIM/VDC, and construction schedules work together to support successful field installation.

This is not a desk-only administrative position. You will work directly with Project Managers, foremen, electricians, vendors, and field teams throughout the project lifecycle, from preconstruction and project setup through closeout.

Responsibilities

• Support Project Managers with commercial electrical projects from preconstruction through final closeout
• Prepare and track RFIs, submittals, change orders, procurement items, project logs, and closeout documents
• Coordinate with electricians, foremen, vendors, subcontractors, general contractors, and internal project teams
• Review electrical drawings, specifications, scopes of work, and construction documents
• Track project schedules, material deliveries, equipment orders, field progress, and open action items
• Assist estimating and preconstruction teams with takeoffs, scope reviews, project setup, and turnover activities
• Work with BIM/VDC teams to identify coordination conflicts and provide field-ready project information
• Participate in project meetings, jobsite visits, and day-to-day field coordination
