Senior Electrical Design Engineer

MXI Partners are partnering with one of the nation's most established engineering design and technical solutions firms to recruit a Senior Electrical Design Engineer for their Baltimore-based operations.

With a longstanding reputation for engineering excellence, technical innovation, and delivering complex infrastructure projects, this organization provides multidisciplinary engineering and design solutions to some of the most technically demanding industries in the country.

This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced Electrical Engineer to take a leading role in the design and engineering of sophisticated power distribution and control systems across mission-critical facilities, including data centers, hospitals, laboratories, advanced manufacturing facilities, and other complex infrastructure environments.

Key Responsibilities

\n
• Lead the electrical engineering and design of complex power distribution and control systems for large-scale, technically demanding construction and infrastructure projects.
\n
• Develop electrical designs for medium- and low-voltage power distribution systems, switchgear, transformers, generators, UPS systems, and associated electrical infrastructure.
\n
• Design and engineer electrical control systems, including PLC-based controls, power monitoring, automation, and integrated building systems.
\n
• Oversee the development of electrical drawings, single-line diagrams, schematics, equipment layouts, specifications, and technical documentation.
\n
• Lead electrical design activities from initial concept and feasibility through detailed engineering, construction support, testing, and commissioning.
\n
• Perform electrical engineering calculations, including load analysis, short-circuit studies, protective device coordination, arc-flash assessments, and equipment sizing.
\n
• Provide technical leadership and guidance to junior engineers, electrical designers, and multidisciplinary project teams.
\n
• Coordinate electrical engineering requirements with mechanical, structural, architectural, and controls engineering disciplines.
\n
• Manage engineering deliverables, ensuring projects meet technical specifications, design standards, budgets, and schedules.
\n
• Review electrical designs for compliance with NEC, NFPA, IEEE, and other relevant industry codes and standards.
\n
• Work closely with clients, contractors, equipment manufacturers, and project stakeholders to develop practical, reliable, and cost-effective engineering solutions.
\n
• Support technical reviews, equipment selection, procurement, construction administration, and commissioning activities.
\n

Candidate Requirements

\n
• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or a closely related discipline.
\n
• Professional Engineer (PE) license is required, or candidates must be actively working toward obtaining their PE license in the near future.
\n
• Significant professional experience in electrical engineering and design, ideally within an established engineering consultancy, design firm, or technical engineering solutions provider.
\n
• Demonstrable experience in both electrical power systems design and electrical controls engineering.
\n
• Proven experience delivering electrical engineering and design packages for data centers, healthcare facilities, laboratories, pharmaceutical facilities, semiconductor plants, advanced manufacturing, or similarly complex environments.
\n
• Strong technical knowledge of medium- and low-voltage electrical distribution, emergency and standby power, critical power infrastructure, and control systems.
\n
• Experience with electrical design software such as AutoCAD, Revit, ETAP, SKM PowerTools, or equivalent platforms.
\n
• Understanding of PLCs, SCADA, building automation, power monitoring, and electrical control system integration.
\n

Compensation and benefits

\n
• Competitive base salary
\n
• Overtime pay on anything over 40 hours per week
\n
• Comprehensive retirement package: company 401k match (up to 6%) AND profit-sharing contributions
\n
• Benefits: medical, dental, vision, PTO, holidays, long- and short-term disability benefits, life insurance and more!
\n
• Hybrid, Baltimore-based working with no travel requirements.
