Our employee-owned, multi-disciplined team of engineering and design professionals is looking for a Senior Professional Electrical Engineer with 10-15 years of experience to join our Facilities Engineering team in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. You'll work alongside Architectural, Civil, Mechanical, and Structural professionals on a wide range of industrial, municipal, water/wastewater, and facility projects.
In this role, you'll scope and lead the electrical engineering side of projects, developing site plans, power, signal and lighting plans, equipment layouts, one-lines, power distribution systems, and assessments and reports. Projects may include electrical systems supporting industrial and process equipment, pumping systems, treatment facilities, emergency and standby power, and other complex facility loads.
You'll also support projects through construction, interpreting plans, observing construction, and confirming work conforms to plans and specifications. As an experienced member of the team, you'll provide technical leadership and mentorship to less experienced engineers and designers.
You'll lead engineering and design teams, owning the technical, quality, financial, and safety aspects of projects from concept through construction. With our "Seller-Doer" approach, you'll also partner with electrical group management and the VP of Facilities Engineering Services on proposal development, client relationships, opportunity tracking, and client presentations.
