Electrical Design Engineer/PM

Electrical Engineer / Designer / Project Manager

Locations: St. Louis, MO | Columbia, MO | Kansas City, MO

Job Type: Full-Time

Overview

This is a growth-focused, leadership-track role designed for an experienced electrical professional ready to lead projects, build client relationships, and take ownership of the full project lifecycle. The ideal candidate will thrive in a deadline-driven, team-oriented environment and be excited by the opportunity to wear multiple hats—from engineering and project management to occasional proposal support and client-facing meetings.

What You’ll Do

• Manage multiple electrical design projects across various stages of development, from early schematics through construction administration.
• Serve as the lead engineer and project manager on assigned efforts—owning scope, schedule, budget, design quality, and client communication.
• Coordinate internally with MEP teams and externally with architects, consultants, and utility providers.
• Lead or contribute to client meetings, site visits, field observations, and punch list efforts.
• Execute technical design tasks including lighting and power system layouts, service load calculations, short circuit and voltage drop analysis.
• Prepare one-line diagrams, equipment specs, and written narratives.
• Support documentation and quality control processes, including construction specifications and peer reviews.
• Take part in proposal development or fee planning as opportunities arise.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s Degree in Electrical Engineering or Architectural Engineering (required).
• 5+ years of experience in commercial electrical system design, ideally across healthcare, K-12, aviation, and/or mixed-use sectors.
• Familiarity with NEC, IBC, and sustainable design standards (LEED AP BD+C is a plus).
• Experience in client-facing roles with the ability to manage multiple stakeholders and project demands.
• Proficient in AutoCAD; Revit experience is strongly preferred, but the team will support growth if you're comfortable getting up to speed.
• Working knowledge of SKM, AGi32, and Bluebeam is beneficial.
• PE license preferred or in active pursuit. Candidates with a clear path to licensure will be prioritized.

Soft Skills & Traits That Will Set You Apart

• Comfortable in a fast-paced, multitasking role with 5–10 active projects in varying stages.
• Ambitious and eager to take on leadership—this team is not hierarchical; you’ll have immediate opportunity to own your work.
• Culturally aligned with a high-performance team: focused, respectful, accountable, and eager to improve.
• Open to feedback, proactive about solutions, and committed to long-term client success.

What Success Looks Like

Within your first year, you'll be expected to integrate into the team's workflow, contribute meaningfully to client deliverables, and begin leading your own projects. Success will be measured by technical excellence, team integration, client satisfaction, and overall ownership of your work. The team uses a proprietary performance-based incentive program (PIPS) that ties bonus earnings (up to 30 to 40%) to metrics like teamwork, innovation, mentoring, and client feedback.

Compensation & Benefits

• Competitive base salary ($70K–$140K depending on experience), with annual performance bonus potential up to 40% of base.
• Two comprehensive healthcare plan options and generous support for family coverage.
• PTO and paid holiday schedule.
• 401(k) with employer contribution.
