Job description

Staff Electrical Design Engineer (EPC) — Your Stamp on Every Drawing

Carson City, NV | Full-Time | $145,000 – $185,000

The Opportunity

If you're tired of designing one slice of a project and handing it off, keep reading. Our client, a fast-growing clean energy innovator, is hiring a Staff Electrical Design Engineer to carry electrical design from first concept through construction — as Electrical Engineer of Record. The portfolio is anything but repetitive: hazardous occupancy spaces, industrial recycling facilities, labs, offices, warehouses, and 34.5 kV/24.9 kV site infrastructure across multiple locations.

Why You'll Love It

  • Full-cycle authority: Concept, permit, construction, commissioning — all yours
  • Project diversity most engineers never see: MV infrastructure to lab fit-outs
  • Real engineering: Optimized ampacity calcs and power studies, not table lookups
  • Carson City lifestyle: Minutes from Tahoe, zero state income tax

What You'll Do

  • Own a wide range of electrical systems — MV feeds up to 34.5 kV, LV distribution, lighting, raceway, grounding, communications
  • Produce permit and construction drawings as Electrical Engineer of Record
  • Run short-circuit, arc flash, and coordination studies in SKM or ETAP
  • Perform cable ampacity calculations (AmpCalc) to optimize beyond prescriptive NEC tables
  • Drive multi-discipline coordination to complete Issue for Construction packages
  • Vet conceptual designs for technical and financial risk; prepare specs and evaluate consultant bids
  • Lead NEC, IECC, and NFPA code analysis across all deliverables
  • Handle construction administration — RFIs, submittals, change orders, inspections — through commissioning
  • Estimate costs, build schedules, QA/QC designs, and mentor junior engineers

What You'll Bring

  • BS/MS in Electrical Engineering (ABET)
  • Active PE (Nevada or reciprocity-eligible); NV and SC licensure within 2 months of start
  • 10+ years in heavy commercial/industrial design with evidence of exceptional ability
  • Command of NEC, IECC, and relevant NFPA standards
  • Advanced proficiency: Revit MEP, AutoCAD, Navisworks, Bluebeam, SKM/ETAP, AmpCalc, Visual/AGI lighting software
  • Proven ability to run multiple concurrent projects independently
  • Site travel flexibility for construction administration and commissioning
  • Communication that lands with field crews and executives alike
