This fully remote position empowers you to create safe, efficient, and code‑compliant designs while enjoying the flexibility to work from anywhere.

About the Role

As a Remote Electrical Designer, you will develop detailed electrical schematics, panel schedules, and load calculations for a diverse portfolio of projects. You will collaborate with project managers, field engineers, and clients through virtual design reviews, ensuring every deliverable meets NEC, IEC, and local jurisdiction standards. Your work directly influences energy efficiency, system reliability, and the overall success of high‑profile installations.

Key Responsibilities

• Produce complete electrical design packages, including single‑line diagrams, conduit and cable routing, and equipment specifications.
• Perform load analysis, short‑circuit studies, and coordination studies using industry‑standard software (ETAP, SKM, EasyPower).
• Prepare and review construction documents, ensuring compliance with NEC 2023, IEEE standards, and client‑specific requirements.
• Coordinate with mechanical, structural, and civil disciplines to resolve clashes and optimize space allocation.
• Support bidding processes by generating accurate material take‑offs and cost estimates.
• Participate in virtual design coordination meetings and provide real‑time mark‑ups on shared BIM models (Revit, Navisworks).
• Mentor junior designers and contribute to the continuous improvement of design templates and standards.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or a related technical field.
• Minimum 4 years of professional electrical design experience in commercial, industrial, or utility projects.
• Proficiency with AutoCAD Electrical, Revit MEP, and at least one power‑system analysis tool.
• Strong knowledge of NEC, NFPA 70E, and relevant local codes.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills for remote collaboration.
• Ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously while meeting tight deadlines.
• U.S. work authorization; no sponsorship required.

Preferred Qualifications

• Professional Engineer (PE) license or progress toward licensure.
• Experience with renewable energy systems (solar PV, battery storage, EV charging infrastructure).
• Familiarity with BIM 360, Procore, or similar project management platforms.
• LEED Green Associate or similar sustainability credential.

Salary Range

$78,000 – $108,000 USD per year, commensurate with experience, certifications, and geographic cost‑of‑living adjustments.

Benefits & Perks

• 100 % remote work with a generous home‑office stipend.
• Comprehensive health, dental, and vision coverage for you and dependents.
• 401(k) plan with company match up to 5 %.
• Annual professional development budget ($2,500) for courses, conferences, and licensure fees.
• Flexible PTO policy plus 10 paid holidays.
• Wellness reimbursement and virtual fitness classes.
• Employee‑stock purchase plan and performance‑based bonuses.

Company Culture & Remote Work Philosophy

Our organization believes that great engineering thrives on autonomy, trust, and transparent communication. Teams meet weekly via video for sprint planning, design critiques, and knowledge‑sharing sessions. We invest heavily in collaboration tools—Miro boards, shared Revit worksets, and real‑time document editing—so distance never hinders creativity. Diversity, equity, and inclusion are core values; we actively recruit talent from all backgrounds and support employee‑resource groups that foster belonging.

How to Succeed in This Role

Success hinges on proactive communication, meticulous attention to code compliance, and a willingness to adopt emerging technologies such as digital twins and AI‑assisted load forecasting. Designers who document decisions clearly, leverage reusable template libraries, and seek peer review early consistently deliver projects on schedule and within budget. Continuous learning—whether through webinars on the latest NEC amendments or certifications in energy storage—keeps you at the forefront of the industry and positions you for rapid career advancement.
