ROLE SUMMARY
As a Design Engineer on Revamp's PV BESS Electrical team, you help accelerate the clean energy transition by designing the electrical systems for utility-scale solar PV and battery energy storage projects, from early layouts through issued-for-construction drawings.
At the Engineer II level, you work on small projects or portions of larger ones while learning from and growing alongside senior staff. At the Engineer III level, you lead multiple projects, may serve as Engineer of Record, and mentor staff engineers.
Every design you deliver helps bring new clean generation and storage onto the grid, and adds to a body of work that has supported more than 10% of US utility-scale solar capacity since 2020. As an employee-owner, you share in the success your work creates and help shape a culture built on collaboration, innovation, and accountability. Candidates may be considered at either the Engineer II or Engineer III level depending on experience, technical depth, independence, and demonstrated ability to lead scope.
DUTIES & RESPONSIBILITIES
Across both levels, this role may include:
Core Technical & Functional Responsibilities
- Design electrical systems and components for utility-scale solar PV and BESS projects, producing plans, details, and calculations for each design phase.
- Prepare electrical design drawings, including one-line and three-line diagrams, electrical layouts, AC/DC schematics, cable schedules, wiring diagrams, and grounding, trenching, and conduit details.
- Perform electrical design calculations, including conductor sizing, voltage drop, wire loss, and grounding, to support design decisions.
- Develop equipment specifications for PV modules, inverters, BESS, transformers, cable management systems, and balance-of-system (BOS) components.
- Evaluate, select, and apply standard design procedures and criteria, adapting methods for nonroutine aspects of assignments.
- Prepare project documentation, including calculation packages, design narratives, and issued-for-construction deliverables.
Project & Portfolio Execution
- Lead small projects or portions of larger projects through drawing and documentation delivery.
- Assign tasks to and coordinate work with discipline team members.
- Help determine schedule and budget requirements for electrical design tasks.
Quality, Standards & Compliance

Tips for Your Remote Electrical Design Technician Job Search
Build a portfolio of shareable design files
Remote employers can't watch you work, so your portfolio does the convincing. Publish completed schematics, wiring diagrams, and panel layouts in formats reviewers can open without meeting you, and annotate each project to show your design decisions.
Apply early to remote roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists remote electrical design technician openings from across the U.S. in one place, so you can find roles that match your skills and apply directly without sorting through unrelated postings.
Demonstrate async communication in your application
Remote electrical design teams coordinate through written documentation, not verbal walkthroughs. A cover message that explains your design process clearly and concisely signals to hiring managers that you'll function well in a distributed environment without constant check-ins.
Target firms with distributed engineering teams
Remote electrical design technician roles concentrate at companies that already have engineering staff in multiple locations. Search specifically for defense contractors, renewable energy developers, and hardware-focused technology companies, since they have established processes for managing remote design work.
Remote Electrical Design Technician Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a remote electrical design technician job?
Target companies that already run distributed engineering teams, such as remote-first software-driven hardware firms, defense contractors with geographically spread design departments, and renewable energy companies with projects across multiple regions. Remote employers screen heavily for self-direction, clear written communication, and proficiency with collaborative CAD and schematic tools. Candidates who show a documented portfolio of completed designs and demonstrate async communication habits stand out the most.
Which companies hire remote electrical design technicians?
Employers currently hiring remote electrical design technicians include Olsson, Baxter & Woodman, and FormFactor, per current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Hiring tends to concentrate at remote-first engineering consultancies, distributed defense and aerospace contractors, and technology companies building hardware products with geographically spread design teams.
Can you get a remote electrical design technician job with no experience?
Yes, but remote entry-level roles are harder to land because employers expect you to troubleshoot independently without in-person support from day one. Smaller engineering consultancies and startup hardware companies are more likely to take on early-career remote candidates. A strong portfolio of personal or academic projects, demonstrated CAD tool proficiency, and evidence of self-directed learning can substitute for formal work history and open doors.
Do you need a degree for remote electrical design technician jobs?
Not always. Many remote employers prioritize demonstrated skills over formal credentials for electrical design technicians, particularly when candidates can show completed schematic work, relevant certifications, or hands-on project output. An associate degree in electrical technology or a recognized certification such as Certified Electronics Technician carries real weight, but a strong portfolio and proficiency in industry tools like AutoCAD Electrical or EPLAN can offset the absence of a four-year degree.
Which industries hire the most remote electrical design technicians?
Most remote electrical design technician openings sit in Consulting & Professional Services, per current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Those sectors hire electricaldesign technicians remotely because their engineering workflows are largely digital, their teams are distributed across multiple sites, and schematic and CAD work can be completed and reviewed entirely through cloud-based collaboration tools.
