We are seeking a highly skilled and detail-driven Senior Facilities Electrical Engineer to lead the design, development, and optimization of electrical systems supporting critical facility operations at our HQS site. This role is pivotal in ensuring the reliability, safety, and efficiency of all electrical infrastructure, while driving strategic improvements and maintaining compliance with regulatory standards.

As a technical authority, you will collaborate across operations, maintenance, and engineering teams to deliver innovative solutions, guide capital projects, and uphold best practices in electrical design and maintenance.

We are able to sponsor the clearance process for qualified candidates; however, our preference is to onboard individuals who already hold an active clearance at any level. This role supports a TS/SCI with Polygraph, and Leidos can maintain that clearance for the position.

This role may be eligible for a sign-on incentive, which could include additional PTO or a monetary bonus.

• Oversee electrical components of construction and renovation projects from concept through completion
• Develop and implement maintenance policies, standards, and procedures aligned with industry best practices
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams and external vendors to ensure seamless service delivery
• Establish and refine design standards and site-specific operating procedures
• Create, review, and update electrical design documentation, submittals, and one-line diagrams
• Perform redline updates and maintain accurate site drawings

Basic Qualifications

• Ability to obtain a Top Secret/SCI with Polygraph clearance.
• 8–12 years of progressive experience in electrical engineering
• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or related discipline

• Deep knowledge of commercial electrical codes and standards (e.g., NEC)
• Proficiency in AutoCAD and other CAD tools
• Familiarity with energy-efficient and sustainable design principles
• Experience with medium voltage systems, backup generators, UPS, data centers, and lighting controls
• Ability to solve complex, cross-disciplinary technical challenges
• Excellent communication skills with the ability to engage senior leadership and customers
• Hands-on experience with industrial control systems, PLCs, and instrumentation

Preferred Qualifications

• Any level of active clearance
• An active Top Secret/SCI with Polygraph
• Recognized Subject Matter Expert (SME) in electrical engineering
• PE (Professional Engineer) certification
• Field experience in electrical construction, systems integration, and testing
• Strong project management skills including budgeting, scheduling, and resource planning
• Experience with reactive maintenance in building electrical systems
