Lead Electrical Engineer Location - Raleigh NC Job Description

• Lead electrical system design for new builds and renovations
• Act as assistant project manager, managing schedules, budgets, and deliverables
• Conduct field investigations, code reviews, and site surveys
• Mentor junior engineers and coordinate multidisciplinary teams
• Build client relationships and help maintain our 95% referral rate

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering (or related)
• 10–20 years of experience in power distribution, lighting, and controls
• Professional Engineer (PE) license required
• Strong skills in AutoCAD or Revit, AGI
  32, SKM or Easypower
• Proven leadership and communication skills
• Fieldwork experience, including the ability to handle site conditions
