About this role
CannonDesign's St. Louis office is seeking an experienced electrical engineer to join a multidisciplinary design team working on substantial projects across healthcare, education, corporate, and science facilities. Reporting to a senior engineer, you'll take on core engineering responsibilities including systems design, construction documentation, and equipment specification for lighting, power distribution, communications, and signaling systems. The role balances independent project ownership with collaborative input—you may lead design planning sessions, mentor junior staff on drawing execution, and participate in value engineering with architects and other engineers.
The position requires a current PE license and at least six years of electrical engineering experience, along with proficiency in design software such as Revit, AGI32, and power analysis tools. You'll move between the office and job sites to verify conditions, observe construction, and attend coordination meetings. LEED accreditation is preferred. Success here depends on strong analytical thinking, clear communication across disciplines, and the ability to juggle multiple projects while maintaining quality control and recommending process improvements.
This is a contract role based in-office in St. Louis. Candidates should submit a resume and portfolio through CannonDesign's careers page.
