Sr. Engineer, Electrical / Mission Critical (Remote)

AHA Consulting Engineers is a recognized expert in the AEC industry, focusing on high-performance building systems. The Sr. Electrical Engineer will provide senior technical leadership for mission critical and hyperscale data center projects, influencing design standards and mentoring team members.

Responsibilities:

• Lead electrical design for mission critical and hyperscale data center projects from programming/basis of design through construction documents and construction administration
• Develop power system architecture and documentation including single-line diagrams, load summaries, equipment schedules, and room layouts for MV/LV distribution
• Design and coordinate systems including utility service, transformers, switchgear/switchboards, UPS, generators, ATS/STS, PDUs/RPPs, grounding/bonding, and lighting
• Coordinate with utilities on service requirements, fault duty, metering, protection, and energization sequencing
• Direct and/or review short circuit, protective device coordination, and arc flash studies (in-house or with study partners) and integrate results into the design
• Drive interdisciplinary coordination (mechanical, controls, FP, structural/architectural, BIM/VDC) to resolve clearances, routing, constructability, and phasing
• Perform senior-level QA/QC reviews to ensure code compliance, client standards alignment, and consistent deliverable quality across program work
• Support client and contractor engagement: design reviews, OAC meetings, RFIs/submittals, field observations, and technical issue resolution
• Mentor designers and engineers; support development of details, templates, and repeatable standards for program delivery

Requirements:

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering (or equivalent)
• 8+ years of progressive electrical engineering experience with significant mission critical/data center delivery; hyperscale experience strongly preferred
• Proven ability to lead projects and produce coordinated construction documents (SD/DD/CD) in a multi-discipline environment
• Strong working knowledge of NEC/NFPA 70; familiarity with electrical safety concepts and NFPA 70E principles
• Experience designing MV/LV power distribution and mission critical infrastructure (UPS, generators, switchgear, transfer schemes)
• Proficiency with Revit and/or AutoCAD; comfort coordinating in a BIM/VDC workflow
• Strong communication skills and ability to lead technical discussions with clients, utilities, and contractors
• Ability to travel to project sites as needed (typically 10-25%)
• Professional Engineer (PE) license or ability to obtain within a defined period
• Experience working within hyperscale client standards, repeatable modular design approaches, and program-level QA/QC
• Familiarity with TIA-942 and resiliency/tier concepts as applicable to data center program requirements
• Experience with power system analysis tools such as SKM, ETAP, or EasyPower (or equivalent)
• Experience with fast-track delivery, design-assist, and complex energization/phasing constraints
• Commissioning coordination experience and strong constructability mindset
