• Review drawings and models for accuracy, completeness, and compliance with project requirements.
• Independently manage assigned design work and meet deliverable deadlines.

Required Qualifications

• Minimum 5 years of electrical design experience.
• Hands-on experience with 3D design software, preferably Revit or SmartPlant 3D.
• Strong understanding of electrical routing, conduit, cable tray, and electrical equipment layouts.
• Experience with 2D drafting software; MicroStation preferred.
• Ability to independently develop electrical designs rather than solely produce models from instructions.
• Strong communication, problem-solving, and collaboration skills.

Preferred Qualifications

• Previous electrical design experience supporting large commercial or industrial construction.
• Familiarity with Navisworks and multidisciplinary 3D model coordination.
• Experience with electrical grounding, lighting layouts, and underground electrical systems.
• Construction coordination or field support experience.
