Staff Electrical Design Engineer (EPC) — End-to-End Ownership Across a Whole Industrial Campus

McCarran, NV | Full-Time | $145,000 – $185,000

The Opportunity

One week it's 34.5 kV site infrastructure; the next it's a hazardous occupancy lab or a new industrial facility. Our client — a rapidly scaling clean energy innovator — needs a Staff Electrical Design Engineer who thrives on variety and ownership. You'll be Electrical Engineer of Record on assigned projects, taking electrical deliverables from concept sketch to construction-ready IFC packages across industrial, office, lab, and warehouse environments.

Why You'll Love It

  • True end-to-end ownership: Your stamp, your drawings, your projects — concept through commissioning
  • Unmatched variety: MV site infrastructure (34.5 kV/24.9 kV), hazardous occupancy, recycling facilities, labs, offices, warehouses
  • Nevada advantage: No state income tax, with Reno-Tahoe on your doorstep
  • Engineering over lookup tables: Optimize designs with real calcs (AmpCalc ampacity, SKM/ETAP studies) instead of prescriptive NEC tables

What You'll Do

  • Design and own electrical systems end-to-end: MV feeds up to 34.5 kV, LV power distribution, lighting, raceway, grounding, and communications
  • Serve as Electrical Engineer of Record, producing permit and construction drawings
  • Perform short-circuit, arc flash, and protective device coordination studies (SKM/ETAP)
  • Run cable ampacity calculations to optimize sizing beyond prescriptive code tables
  • Lead multi-discipline coordination — architectural, civil, structural, mechanical, fire & life safety — to deliver complete IFC packages
  • Review conceptual designs for technical and financial risk; write specs and run technical bid evaluations of consultant work
  • Lead code analysis across NEC, IECC, and applicable NFPA standards
  • Own construction administration — RFIs, submittals, change orders, site inspections — as technical point of contact through commissioning
  • Build cost estimates and schedules, perform QA/QC, mentor junior engineers, and shape internal design standards

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 and industrial design with evidence of exceptional ability
  • Deep code expertise: NEC, IECC, and relevant NFPA standards
  • Advanced proficiency: Revit MEP, AutoCAD, Navisworks, Bluebeam, SKM/ETAP, AmpCalc, and lighting software (Visual/AGI)
  • Ability to juggle multiple concurrent projects and deliver on schedule
  • Willingness to travel for construction administration and commissioning
  • Communication skills that work from the trench to the boardroom
