Remote Electrical Designer – Design the Future of Power Systems

Join a forward‑thinking engineering firm that empowers talented Electrical Designers to create cutting‑edge power solutions from the comfort of their home office. You’ll collaborate with multidisciplinary teams on projects ranging from renewable energy installations to industrial automation, all while enjoying the flexibility and work‑life balance that only a fully remote role can provide.

About the Role

As an Electrical Designer, you will be responsible for developing detailed electrical schematics, layouts, and specifications that meet client requirements and industry standards. You’ll work closely with project managers, field engineers, and procurement teams to ensure designs are both innovative and constructible. This role offers the opportunity to influence the direction of sustainable energy projects and gain exposure to emerging technologies such as smart grids and energy storage systems.

Key Responsibilities

• Create single‑line diagrams, wiring diagrams, and panel layouts using AutoCAD Electrical, ETAP, or similar software.
• Perform load calculations, short‑circuit analysis, and voltage drop studies to verify design adequacy.
• Coordinate with mechanical and civil disciplines to resolve interface issues early in the design process.
• Prepare bills of materials, cost estimates, and technical documentation for client review and approval.
• Support field installation teams by providing clarification on design intent and reviewing shop drawings.
• Stay current with NEC, IEC, and local code updates, integrating changes into design practices.

Requirements

We’re looking for a detail‑oriented engineer with a solid foundation in electrical design and a passion for delivering high‑quality solutions remotely. The ideal candidate will demonstrate both technical expertise and strong communication skills.

Minimum Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field.
• Minimum 3 years of experience in electrical design for commercial, industrial, or utility projects.
• Proficiency with AutoCAD Electrical (or equivalent) and familiarity with simulation tools such as ETAP, SKM PowerTools, or DIgSILENT.
• Solid understanding of NEC, IEC, and relevant local electrical codes.
• Ability to read and interpret mechanical drawings and coordinate across disciplines.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills; comfortable presenting designs to clients and stakeholders.
• Self‑motivated, with proven ability to manage multiple priorities in a remote work environment.

Preferred Qualifications

• Professional Engineer (PE) license or progress toward licensure.
• Experience with renewable energy systems (solar, wind, battery storage).
• Knowledge of BIM workflows and Revit MEP.
• Familiarity with project management software such as MS Project or Primavera P6.
• Exposure to international projects and multi‑currency estimating.

Benefits

We believe that a supportive remote culture drives both personal growth and business success. Our benefits package is designed to keep you healthy, motivated, and financially secure.

• Competitive salary: $68,000 – $92,000 USD per year (based on experience and certifications).
