We are working with a specialist design-build contractor delivering mission-critical cleanroom and controlled-environment projects across the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, semiconductor and advanced-manufacturing sectors.

• Design 480/277/208/120 V and low-voltage power-distribution systems.


• Produce one-line diagrams, panel schedules, control diagrams and lighting layouts.


• Specify transformers, switchgear, panels, UPS, generators and emergency-power systems.


• Coordinate fire alarms, door interlocks, access control and BMS interfaces.


• Ensure compliance with NEC, NFPA, UL, local building codes and relevant cleanroom standards.


• Support site surveys, construction, installation, commissioning and as-built documentation.

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related discipline.


• Five or more years of relevant electrical design experience.


• Strong experience with 480 V distribution, backup generation, UPS and fire/life-safety systems.


• Working knowledge of NEC, NFPA and building-code requirements.


• PE licence, or the ability to obtain the required licensure within six months.


• Cleanroom, pharmaceutical, semiconductor, data-center, critical-facility or advanced-manufacturing experience is highly advantageous.


• Revit, AutoCAD, BIM/VDC and BMS/BAS coordination experience would be beneficial.

Package

• Annual performance bonus.


• Medical, company-paid dental and vision, 401(k), PTO, life and disability coverage.


• Tuition and wellbeing reimbursements, plus per diem for project travel.
