Senior Electrical Engineer (PE) – Lead & Grow with RS&H

We’re seeking a Senior Electrical Engineer (PE) who is ready to step into a true leadership role—leading teams, influencing direction, and helping grow a high-performing electrical practice for our buildings engineering team in Charlotte, NC or Jacksonville, FL.

This is more than a Senior engineer position. It’s an opportunity to mentor, build, and lead, while still staying connected to meaningful, high-impact work.

What You’ll Do

In this role, you’ll operate at both a technical and leadership level, with a strong emphasis on team development and client engagement:

• Lead and manage an electrical engineering group, supporting team growth and performance
• Serve as Engineer of Record and provide technical oversight across complex projects
• Drive project delivery as a Project Engineer and/or Project Manager across aviation, federal, healthcare, and commercial sectors
• Partner with multidisciplinary teams to deliver integrated, high-quality solutions
• Mentor and develop junior engineers and designers, helping shape the next generation of talent
• Build and maintain strong client relationships, serving as a trusted advisor
• Contribute to strategic growth initiatives, including hiring and team expansion
• Support projects from concept through construction, including coordination and quality control

What You Bring

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering (accredited program)
• Professional Engineer (PE) license required
• 10+ years of experience in electrical engineering (building systems preferred)
• Proven experience leading projects, teams, or both
• Strong knowledge of NEC, NFPA, and applicable codes
• Demonstrated ability to mentor and guide junior staff
• Excellent communication skills and client-facing experience
• Ability to operate both strategically and technically

Nice to Have:

• Experience with Revit
• Background in aviation, healthcare, federal, or large-scale commercial projects
• Interest in business development or practice growth

Why This Role Stands Out

• Leadership-first opportunity: Step into a role where you’re leading people—not just producing design
• Real impact: Help shape and grow a team while influencing project direction
• Diverse, high-visibility work: From aviation terminal expansions to healthcare and national commercial programs
• Clear path forward: Positioned for continued leadership growth within the organization

Why RS&H?

• Work on impactful projects across aviation, federal, healthcare, and commercial markets
• Collaborate in a people-first culture that values mentorship and growth
• Gain exposure to national programs and healthcare leaders  
• Be part of a firm known for technical excellence and long-term client partnerships
• Employee Ownership Opportunities

Benefits That Support You

• Competitive compensation
• Generous PTO and paid holidays
• Medical, dental, and vision coverage
• 401(k) with company contribution
• Career development and advancement opportunities

If you’re an experienced electrical engineer who’s ready to lead, mentor, and make a broader impact, this is the kind of role that can take your career to the next level.
