GutVann Architecture and Consulting is an architecture and engineering firm in Monmouth/Ocean County, New Jersey. We are licensed in roughly 20 states , with a primary focus on healthcare — skilled nursing, post-acute, and senior care — plus a steady commercial portfolio. We are a technical firm, not a design-only shop. The work is real, constrained, occupied-building engineering.
We are hiring a Senior Electrical Designer to independently produce power and building electrical systems design across that portfolio. This is a hands-on production role for someone confident enough to take a project from existing conditions all the way through complete construction documents with minimal oversight.
What you'll do
- Design power distribution systems for new and existing buildings — service entrances, feeders, panelboards, branch circuiting, load calculations, and power riser diagrams
- Design and coordinate emergency and standby power systems, including generator sizing, transfer switches, and emergency power tie-ins for healthcare facilities
- Produce lighting design and lighting power layouts as needed
- Develop complete electrical construction documents in Revit, coordinated with our HVAC/plumbing team and architectural staff
- Perform electrical load calculations and equipment sizing
- Coordinate electrical scope with mechanical, plumbing, and architectural work in constrained and occupied-facility conditions
- Respond to RFIs, review submittals, and support construction administration
- Grow into healthcare fire alarm design and low-voltage/structured wiring scope — training and support provided
What we're looking for
- 6+ years of electrical design experience in a consulting engineering or MEP firm environment
- Demonstrated ability to independently produce power distribution design for commercial and/or institutional buildings
- Experience with generator and emergency power systems
- Working production proficiency in Revit
- Solid working knowledge of the National Electrical Code (NFPA 70)
- The judgment to run projects independently and escalate only the genuinely complex issues
Nice to have, but not required
- Healthcare facility experience — skilled nursing, hospitals, or medical office
- Fire alarm design experience (NFPA 72)
- Familiarity with low-voltage and structured wiring systems
- Familiarity with NFPA 99 essential electrical systems and NFPA 101 Life Safety Code
