Find & Apply For Electrical Engineer Jobs in Howell Township, New Jersey

Build and lead our electrical department. GutVann Architecture is a 25-person architecture firm in Howell, NJ. Most of our work is healthcare (nursing homes, rehab and post-acute facilities, assisted living), plus commercial projects across NJ, NY, PA and about 20 other states. Earlier this year we brought mechanical and plumbing engineering in-house. Now we're adding electrical, and you'd be our first electrical engineer, reporting directly to the principal. You'd run electrical design on projects from the site visit through construction. Most of our work is renovations and additions to existing, occupied buildings, so you need to be comfortable walking a building, figuring out what's there, and designing around it. You'll work alongside our architects and our in-house mechanical lead, in the same Revit models. As work grows, you'll hire, train and review the work of one or two junior electrical designers. What you'll do Survey existing buildings: services, switchgear, panels, feeders, branch circuits and generators Design power distribution: services, feeders, panelboards, load calculations, one-lines and risers Design lighting, branch power, receptacles and equipment connections Design emergency and standby power: generators, transfer switches, emergency lighting Produce construction documents in
