This position is intended for an experienced engineer who can independently produce and review electrical designs while providing senior-level technical direction throughout project delivery. This is a full-time, in-office position in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and local candidates currently working for MEP firms are strongly preferred. Feller Engineering

- Strong knowledge of electrical building systems, applicable codes, engineering standards, and design practices.
- Experience with commercial projects such as high-rise offices, condominiums, hotels, airports, industrial facilities, or similar complex structures.
