Setup and Location: Work from Home (Equipment Provided) Work Schedule: 10:00 AM – 7:00 PM NZST | 6:00 AM - 3:00 PM PH Time Employment Type: Full-Time Ready to do work that actually excites you? Eleccom is a New Zealand–based electrical engineering and building services consultancy delivering electrical design and documentation for commercial buildings and infrastructure projects. Their work includes offices, schools, hotels, industrial buildings, and similar built‑environment projects. The business is technically led, with a strong focus on high‑quality documentation, practical design, and efficiency in Revit. Accuracy and real‑world constructability are essential, as designs are coordinated closely with other building disciplines. This is a hands‑on electrical design and documentation role focused on producing coordinated electrical drawings and models using Revit (Electrical). The Electrical Design Engineer will work closely with the lead engineer and internal team to convert marked‑up designs and concepts into clear, accurate, and buildable 2D and 3D outputs. This role is not client‑facing and is not a graduate or trainee position. The successful candidate must already be comfortable working independently in Revit on electrical building services projects. What You’ll Do You’ll be the kind of person who: Electrical Design & Documentation <ul> <li>Produce electrical drawings and documentation in Revit (2D and 3D) based on provided markups and design intent. </li> <li>Translate marked‑up PDFs (Bluebeam) and CAD information into detailed Revit models. </li> <li>Develop lighting layouts, power layouts, and circuiting plans. </li> <li>Complete power reticulation documentation (400/230V). </li> <li>Assist in preparing technical schedules, legends, and drawing sets. </li> <li>Support basic lighting and emergency lighting calculations as required. </li> </ul> Revit (Electrical) – Core Requirement <ul> <li>Work within established Revit templates and standards. </li> <li>Create, modify, and maintain Revit electrical families, particularly lighting fixtures. </li> <li>Ensure correct use of insertion points, reference planes, tagging, and visibility controls. </li> <li>Maintain clean, usable models that coordinate with other disciplines (mechanical, fire, structural). </li> </ul>This role requires more than basic drafting — candidates must genuinely understand how Revit works for electrical building services. Coordination & Interpretation <ul> <li>Coordinate electrical services within limited ceiling and building spaces. </li> <li>Interpret building structures and terminology (beams, grids, purlins, structural levels). </li> <li>Accurately apply heights, offsets, and installation notes within the model. </li> <li>Ensure drawings are presented at the correct scale and standard. </li> </ul> <h3>Requirements</h3>What You Bring We’re looking for someone who: Technical Requirements <ul> <li>Strong experience with Revit (Electrical) – essential. </li> <li>Experience creating and managing electrical Revit families. </li> <li>Minimum 5 years’ experience in electrical design or building services drafting. </li> <li>Australian or New Zealand project experience required. </li> <li>Solid understanding of building services electrical systems (not industrial/mining). </li> <li>Familiarity with AS/NZS 3000 Wiring Rules is highly preferred. </li> </ul>Software <ul> <li>Autodesk Revit (Electrical) – required </li> <li>AutoCAD – supporting </li> <li>Bluebeam – supporting </li> <li>Lighting design software (e.g. DIALux / AGi32) – desirable but not essential </li> </ul>What This Role Is Not <ul> <li>Not suitable for candidates without real electrical Revit experience </li> <li>Not suitable for purely industrial, mining, or power‑generation backgrounds </li> <li>Not a trainee or graduate position </li> </ul>Soft Skills & Attributes <ul> <li>High attention to detail and pride in drawing quality </li> <li>Able to work independently once briefed </li> <li>Strong technical comprehension — understands what is being drawn, not just how </li> <li>Clear written and spoken English </li> <li>Practical, delivery‑focused mindset </li> <li>Comfortable working remotely and following structured workflows </li> </ul> <h3>Benefits</h3>Why You’ll Love Working Here <ul> <li>HMO, Dental, and Life Insurance for you and one free dependent from day one (with the option to enroll additional dependents) </li> <li>Paid Leaves: Birthday, Vacation, Medical, and Maternity (up to 6 Vacation Leaves are convertible to cash on your anniversary) </li> <li>Employee Engagement Activities: Year-End Party, Family Day, Team Building, and more! </li> </ul>Let’s Talk If you’re thinking “this sounds like me”—it probably is.
