Job Description

Position Overview

At Strategic Mission Critical (SMC), we are experts dedicated to mission critical facilities, providing state‐of‐the‐art electrical design solutions for top-tier data center providers globally. With rapid market expansion driven by AI advancements, you will work on major projects that ensure the resilience and efficiency of data infrastructure relied on by millions. This role offers an opportunity to both lead smaller projects and collaborate within larger teams, mentoring junior engineers and partnering with multi-disciplinary design leads.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design electrical infrastructure for mission critical buildings and campuses including medium voltage distribution, redundant power systems (distributed and block redundant), on-site generation, UPS backup, and typical building systems such as small power, lighting, grounding, and fire alarm.
  • Coordinate with internal and external disciplines for electrical power connections and monitoring system interfaces with controls and telecommunications engineers.
  • Review and apply client standards, design criteria, applicable codes, and best practices to engineering projects.
  • Utilize Autodesk Revit daily to produce detailed design documents and work collaboratively with Microsoft tools (Word, PowerPoint, Excel, Teams).
  • Lead and mentor junior engineers, designers, and modelers while managing small project teams and ensuring adherence to project deadlines.
  • Perform project-related tasks that include scheduling, coordinating with design leads across various disciplines, and occasional travel (approximately 10-20%).

Required Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering or architectural engineering with an electrical focus preferred (2-year/EET degrees with relevant experience will be considered).
  • Minimum 4 years of experience in facility electrical design using Autodesk Revit for drawing development.
  • Experience in electrical design for industrial and commercial buildings; mission critical design experience is a plus.
  • Proficient in performing and reviewing power studies (Neher-McGrath, short circuit, coordination, arc flash) and familiar with local/national codes and standards.
  • Experience working through all phases of the construction process, including schematic design, submittals review, shop drawings, and field work.
  • Experience in leading small electrical design teams and interfacing with clients is preferred along with familiarity with construction management tools (e.g., Procore, Autodesk Construction Cloud).
  • Engineer-in-Training (EIT) or Professional Engineer (PE) designation is preferred.

Benefits & Perks

  • Compensation: Base Compensation of $90,000-$225,000, subject to factors such as education, experience, skills, and location.
  • 36-hour standard work week with a hybrid working arrangement.
  • 13 paid holidays.
  • 100% coverage of medical, health, and dental insurance premiums for full-time employees (benefits extended to spouse and family at a subsidized rate).
  • Reimbursement of professional licensing costs.
  • Eligibility for employer-sponsored life and long-term disability insurance as well as participation in a 401(k) plan with an annual safe harbor contribution.
