The posting

The Work

LACCD is spending bond money to cut energy use and carbon across its nine college campuses: solar, battery storage, microgrids, electric vehicle charging, building controls, LED lighting, central plant upgrades, and electrification. The Sustainability Strike Team runs those projects. You are its electrical engineer: the licensed expert the project managers turn to when they need to know what the existing electrical system can handle, what a project will really take, and whether a design is right.

You work under the Sustainability Strike Team Lead as a shared technical resource across the district, based at the District Office. You are not a project manager. You assess existing infrastructure, run load and capacity studies, write and check scopes of work, review designs and submittals, sit on selection panels, and back up the team in the field through commissioning and closeout.

This is a good seat for a licensed electrical engineer with 7 or more years in design, construction, or facilities infrastructure who wants to work for the owner on energy and sustainability projects.

What You Will Own

  • Serve as the electrical engineering expert for project managers and the Sustainability Strike Team across districtwide initiatives
  • Assess existing electrical infrastructure and equipment for condition, performance, capacity, and upgrade opportunities, and write existing conditions reports with findings, alternatives, and priorities
  • Perform and review load studies, capacity evaluations, feasibility studies, and other analyses that shape project scope and design
  • Check that proposed upgrades fit the existing electrical and building systems, and coordinate with other engineering disciplines and utility providers on service capacity and upgrades
  • Write technical scopes of work, or the electrical portion of them, and review scopes prepared by consultants against District standards, project goals, and site conditions
  • Validate engineering assumptions, alternatives, and feasibility findings in the White Papers that set up new projects, following the program office's standard procedures
  • Provide electrical input to procurement documents and evaluation criteria, and serve on panels that select designers, contractors, and other technical firms
  • Review studies, design documents, specifications, submittals, RFIs, and change order proposals, and make technical recommendations to project managers
  • Bring technical expertise to solar, battery storage, microgrids, EV charging, building electrification, central plant decarbonization, lighting, and smart controls
  • Work with design and construction teams to flag engineering risks, resolve technical issues, and support constructability and systems integration
  • Support field visits, design and construction meetings, commissioning, and closeout
  • Apply California energy and electrical codes, Title 24, ASHRAE guidance, and District standards to every review

Requirements

What You Bring

  • A bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering (required)
  • A current California Professional Engineer (PE) license in Electrical Engineering (required)
  • 7 or more years of professional electrical engineering experience in design, construction, or facilities infrastructure projects (required)
  • Strong working knowledge of California energy codes, Title 24, the National Electrical Code (NEC), and CALGreen (required)

Preferred

  • 2 or more years on educational facility design or construction, ideally California community colleges or other public schools
  • Large public works capital improvement programs
  • Electrical infrastructure assessments, load studies, utility coordination, and service capacity evaluations
  • Solar (PV), battery energy storage (BESS), microgrids, and EV charging infrastructure
  • Building electrification, central plant electrical infrastructure, and integration with building management systems and automation controls
  • Reviewing electrical designs, specifications, and construction documents
  • The DSA design, approval, and construction process (DSA is the state office that approves public school and college construction)
  • Bluebeam Revu and Building Information Modeling (BIM)
  • LEED or CHPS project experience or certification

Benefits

Compensation

Salary range: 135000-165000 per year, based on experience.

Benefits: health, dental, and vision at low cost; 401k; three weeks of PTO; and an ESOP (employee stock ownership) at no cost to you, with a 3% Safe Harbor contribution vested on day one.

Why MAAS

MAAS has spent nearly 40 years earning the trust of 50+ educational institutions across California, managing over $10B in projects. That track record means the work here is stable, funded, and consequential. You are not chasing the next contract.

As a MAAS employee, you are also an owner. The company is 100% employee-owned through an ESOP, a retirement benefit provided at no cost to you, on top of your salary. MAAS is a profitable, well-run organization and our share price has more than doubled since the plan's inception, with continued growth year over year. Your ownership stake builds the longer you stay, and ESOP participants nationally tend to accumulate 2.5x more in retirement savings than employees at non-ESOP companies.

In an industry not known for prioritizing culture, 96% of MAAS employees say it is a great place to work, and 100% say people genuinely care about each other.

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
