Job Description

About the Opportunity

We’re growing our engineering team in Henderson and looking for an Electrical Engineer who wants to design real building‑systems projects and see them come to life quickly. You’ll support the design of power distribution, lighting, grounding, and low‑voltage systems for modular buildings used in commercial, multifamily, hospitality, and industrial applications.

This role is ideal for engineers early in their career who want hands‑on experience, direct collaboration with mechanical and architectural teams, and the chance to see their work built in a controlled manufacturing environment.

We welcome candidates with EIT status or strong building‑systems design experience.

Requirements

What You’ll Work On

  • Assist in designing electrical building systems: power distribution, lighting, grounding, and low‑voltage
  • Prepare load calculations, panel schedules, one‑line diagrams, and equipment layouts
  • Support NEC and building‑code compliance reviews
  • Coordinate with mechanical, structural, and architectural teams to integrate MEP systems
  • Work with fabrication and field teams during assembly, testing, and commissioning
  • Review vendor submittals and verify equipment compatibility
  • Help standardize electrical design packages for modular building production
  • Troubleshoot design or installation issues with senior engineers

What You Bring

  • Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or related field
  • 2–6 years of experience in building electrical design (commercial, multifamily, industrial, or similar)
  • Solid understanding of NEC fundamentals, power distribution, and lighting design
  • Ability to read and produce construction drawings (Revit or AutoCAD preferred)
  • Experience with modular, prefabricated, or off‑site construction is a plus
  • Strong communication skills and willingness to learn in a fast‑paced environment

Why This Role Stands Out

  • Fast project cycles — see your designs built and tested quickly
  • Work directly with engineering, manufacturing, and leadership teams
  • Competitive compensation and full benefits
  • Opportunity to grow into more advanced design responsibilities over time
  • High‑impact work on modular building projects across multiple industries

Benefits

    • Competitive salary and Bonus
    • Health, dental, and vision insurance
    • Paid time off
    • 401(k)
    • Relocation assistance available
    • Career growth in a rapidly expanding modular‑construction environment
