Senior Electrical Engineer

Job Description

At Catapult, we are assisting our member, The East Group, in their search for a Senior Electrical Engineer.

Senior Electrical Engineer

Lead meaningful work without being tied to an office.

Have a real voice. Grow into what's next.

At The East Group, this isn't just another senior engineering role. It's an opportunity to lead projects that shape communities across North Carolina, while working in a flexible, remote-first environment built on trust and results.

If you're ready for greater ownership, deeper client relationships, and a clear path toward leadership, this role is designed for you.

Why This Role Stands Out
  • Remote Flexibility, Built on Trust- Work remotely with the autonomy senior engineers deserve, while staying connected to a collaborative, high-performing team. We focus on outcomes, not micromanagement. Occasional travel to Raleigh or Greenville, NC.
  • Real Impact - Design systems for healthcare, industrial, and public sector projects that directly serve communities across the region.
  • Visible Leadership - Work directly with clients and internal teams-no unnecessary layers or red tape.
  • Growth Opportunity - Expand your leadership influence with a clear path toward senior leadership or principal-level roles.
  • Collaborative Culture - Join a multidisciplinary team that values input, respect, and shared success.
  • Stability + Reputation - Be part of a firm with 50+ years of trusted client relationships across North Carolina.

What You'll Do
  • Lead electrical design for a variety of complex projects
  • Serve as a primary point of contact for clients
  • Mentor junior engineers and contribute to team development
  • Collaborate across disciplines to deliver thoughtful, high-quality solutions
  • Help shape project strategy, scope, and execution

What You Bring
  • 10+ years of experience in electrical engineering design
  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering
  • Active PE license in North Carolina (or ability to obtain quickly)
  • Strong project leadership and client communication skills
  • Experience with Revit (preferred)
  • A proactive, collaborative mindset and commitment to high-quality work

Who We Are

With 60+ employees across multiple disciplines, The East Group is a full-service engineering and architecture firm with deep roots in North Carolina. Our firm has served clients for over 50 years with a commitment to technical excellence, thoughtful design, and long-lasting relationships. At our core, we believe in a people-first culture, where integrity, service, and teamwork shape every interaction.

Compensation & Benefits
  • Salary range: $115,000-$150,000 (based on experience)
  • Performance bonus opportunities
  • Remote with occasional travel to Raleigh or Greenville, NC
  • Relocation assistance available for candidates interested in relocating to North Carolina
  • Comprehensive benefits package
