Job description

We are currently seeking a Senior Electrical Engineer to join our Aerospace and Equipment team!

Join RS&H’s Aerospace and Equipment Group as an Electrical Engineer and help shape the infrastructure that supports the nation’s most advanced aerospace, military, and energy missions. You’ll work alongside a talented team of engineers and architects to design launch facilities, processing centers, ground support systems, military installations, and large‑scale industrial equipment. This role places you at the heart of multidisciplinary collaboration and requires a genuine enthusiasm for contributing to space exploration.

Note: While the hiring team for this role sits in Merritt Island, FL, we are open to this person sitting elsewhere in the United States.

You will lead the design of medium- and low-voltage power distribution systems, standby power systems, and a wide range of building electrical systems—from grounding, lightning protection, and lighting controls to fire detection, VESDA, access control, hazardous leak detection, paging and warning systems, CCTV, gas monitoring, and telecommunications. Your work will also involve performing detailed engineering analyses such as load flow, short circuit, arc flash, cable sizing, conduit fill, and protective device coordination.

Success in this role requires strong knowledge of hazardous location wiring, material compatibility, and the ability to produce high‑quality diagrams, schematics, bills of materials, and build‑to‑print documentation for control and monitoring systems. Experience selecting electrical and instrumentation components for ground support equipment is a strong advantage.

Required Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering (ABET accredited or equivalent)
• At least 7 years of relevant experience
• Active PE license
• Working knowledge of AutoCAD and Revit
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience with UFC, UFGS, SpecsIntact, SpecLink
• Knowledge of NFPA 70, 70E, 101, 497, and 780
• Familiarity with Creo
• Experience with AGI32 and SKM Power Tools
