About the role
- We're hiring our Principal Electrical Engineer.
- In this role, your time will be split between:
Responsibilities
- Supervise electrical design engineer(s), reviewing their work and providing the engineering judgment behind every stamped package.
- collaborate with AI/software team to systematize.
- Develop standardized templates, symbol libraries, and drawing conventions that become the foundation of our automated output.
- Shape the review checkpoints, QC playbooks, and supervision cadence that let us scale stamped output with AI without diluting responsible charge; collaborate with AI/software team to systematize.
Requirements
- You've stamped plenty of drawing sets, you know what plan checkers look for, and you can size a service entrance in your sleep.
- Deep working knowledge of NEC and experience navigating AHJ-specific requirements.
- Experience with EV charging infrastructure design (DCFC and/or L2 installations, utility interconnection, load management, light civil & structural design).
- Strong verbal and written communication skills: ability to articulate engineering rules to teammates who are not experts in your area of expertise.
- Comfort & natural knack for toggling between 80/20 & scrappy vs. detail-oriented & perfectionist depending on context.
Nice to have
- Comfort working with AI tools - not because you'll be coding, but because you'll be collaborating with AI systems daily.

- Proficient with CAD and BIM tools.
- ability to articulate engineering rules to teammates who are not experts in your area of expertise.
- Competitive salary commensurate with experience.
