Typical design responsibilities include lighting, lighting controls, power distribution, emergency and standby power systems, generators, UPS systems, fire alarm systems, site lighting, surge protection, lightning protection, grounding, and low-voltage infrastructure coordination.

We are looking for a candidate who combines technical electrical design ability with strong critical thinking, practical problem-solving, and the ability to develop coordinated, constructible solutions. The ideal candidate should be able to evaluate existing conditions, understand how building systems interact, identify potential conflicts, and think through design challenges before they become construction issues.

The role requires experience preparing electrical construction documents in Revit and/or AutoCAD, along with a working knowledge of the National Electrical Code, Florida Building Code, Florida Energy Code, NFPA standards, and applicable Florida electrical requirements. The candidate should be able to coordinate effectively with architects, owners, contractors, authorities having jurisdiction, and internal mechanical, electrical, plumbing, fire protection, technology, and construction administrative team members.

Responsibilities may include preparing electrical drawings, lighting layouts, lighting calculations, panel schedules, load calculations, voltage drop calculations, one-line diagrams, specifications, design narratives.

Engineer candidates should have a Bachelor of Science degree in Electrical Engineering or a related engineering field. Two or more years of electrical building systems design experience is preferred. E.I. / EIT registration is preferred but not required; however, candidates should have an interest in pursuing professional licensure.

Designer candidates do not need a BS degree. Five or more years of electrical building systems design experience is preferred.

All candidates should have strong communication skills, attention to detail, the ability to manage multiple assignments, and a willingness to work in a collaborative design environment. Candidates must also be able to pass project-specific background checks, including requirements related to school sites, the Jessica Lunsford Act, and government/FBI screening where applicable.

Matern Professional Engineering is an employee-owned, multi-discipline engineering firm with more than 40 years of experience providing mechanical, electrical, plumbing, fire protection, technology, commissioning, and energy engineering services throughout Florida and the Southeast.
