Encorus Group has recently opened our newest office in Rochester, NY, and we’re seeking a Senior Electrical Engineer to lead its continued development. This role goes beyond technical expertise—it’s a unique leadership opportunity to influence the growth, culture, and direction of a high-performing local team while collaborating closely with our established Buffalo office.

We’re looking for an engineer with extensive experience in power infrastructure for industrial facilities, particularly in medium- and low-voltage systems. Our projects range from large-scale power generation facilities to control level distribution, offering a diverse and engaging workload. As a consulting firm, we support clients across a wide spectrum of industries and facility types—from state-of-the-art manufacturing spaces to older industrial plants—making this an ideal role for someone who thrives on variety and values client interaction.

The ideal candidate is technically strong, proactive, and client-focused, with a passion for solving complex challenges, mentoring others, and contributing to a collaborative, fast-paced, and learning-driven environment.

Responsibilities:

• Define project requirements, delegate tasks to staff, and oversee projects through to completion, ensuring the accuracy and completeness of deliverables
• Serve as a project manager, handling correspondence, estimates, schedules, material lists, design considerations, and drawings
• Review and redline existing drawings, maintain project documentation, and coordinate project files
• Collaborate with internal teams and external professionals, including architects and engineers, to ensure seamless design integration
• Independently manage projects of moderate size and complexity while supporting senior engineers on larger, more intricate assignments
• Assist project managers with correspondence, estimates, schedules, material lists, design concepts, calculations, and documentation, ensuring compliance with customer, corporate, and industry standards
• Apply industry best practices and company standards to oversee the development of calculations, project drawings, and specifications
• Mentor and guide entry-level engineers, providing technical development, progress reviews, and coaching
• Coordinate with internal and external partners—including cross-discipline teams, construction teams, vendors, fabricators, and clients—to address electrical-related challenges
• Execute advanced engineering tasks that require creativity and critical thinking, solving unique electrical challenges that may have limited or no direct code guidance
  
  

Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering
• 10+ years of electrical engineering and design experience, with a preference for consulting experience
• Professional Engineer (PE) registration, strongly preferred
• Strong background in power infrastructure for industrial facilities, including experience with medium- and low-voltage systems
• Experience and enthusiasm for working across a broad range of project types and power distribution levels
• Proficiency using ETAP or SKM, Visual or similar analytical software
• Proficiency working with details and designing with AutoCAD and Revit drafters
• Strong communication and teamwork skills
• Ability to comply with company drug screening, including pre-employment tests
• A valid driver's license, along with the ability to travel locally and occasionally out of state
  
  

Pay Range: The salary range for this position is $90,000 - $135,000 annually. Actual compensation will be based on the candidate’s knowledge, skills, and experience. Encorus Group is an equal opportunity employer (EOE/AA Disability/Veteran), committed to fair and equitable compensation.

Join Us! At Encorus, we value innovation, collaboration, and professional development. We offer a competitive benefits package, opportunities for career advancement, paid training, flexible scheduling, and hybrid work options depending on project needs and team collaboration.
