• Perform electrical calculations, load requirements, equipment selections, and system layouts.
• Apply applicable electrical codes, standards, and engineering practices throughout the design process.
• Review architectural, structural, and MEP drawings to identify conflicts and maintain coordinated construction documents.
• Collaborate with mechanical, plumbing, fire protection, and other engineering disciplines on multidisciplinary projects.
• Review drawings and project documentation for accuracy, constructability, and consistency prior to issuance.
• Assist with construction-phase questions, technical coordination, and design-related issues.
• Take ownership of assigned electrical design work and contribute to project delivery from design through construction documentation.
