About VIATechnik:
VIATechnik is on a mission to lead the built environment in creating a better future, today. We are one team of over 500 digital experts around the globe. Our team is a quickly growing group of committed architects, engineers, tradespersons, researchers, and business leaders. Together, we empower clients through high-quality, high-velocity experiences that consistently improve outcomes across the design, construction, and operations of buildings and infrastructure. Our clients include Amazon, Mars Wrigley, and National Geographic, the firms shaping the world's most ambitious projects.
Role Overview
VIATechnik is seeking a Project Coordinator to serve as the central hub keeping our electrical construction projects organized and moving forward. This role handles administrative and project management tasks, supports in tracking project schedules, attend internal and client-facing meetings, and breaks down work to the appropriate engineering team. You'll support engineering teams by managing documentation and coordinating communication between internal engineers, clients, contractors, and vendors, ensuring projects stay on track, within scope, and within budget. This is a great fit for someone who wants hands-on exposure to coordinate MEP/electrical engineering projects run from kickoff to closeout.
What You'll Do
- Build a centralized documentation and tracking system across your assigned electrical projects, so meeting notes, RFIs, closeout files, and vendor submittals are logged in a consistent, searchable format within 48 hours of receipt.
- Screen incoming vendor product data and technical submittals against project specifications, catching missing information and formatting issues before they reach engineers and cutting down on submittals returned as incomplete.
- Track schedules and milestones across a portfolio of concurrent projects, and flag any timeline variance to the project manager within 24 hours instead of holding it for the next status meeting.
- Serve as the primary point of contact for routine client and contractor communications, resolving non-technical questions yourself and routing technical ones to the right engineer without delay.
- Set up coordination meetings, help set up project timelines, join internal and client-facing calls, capture accurate notes and action items, and follow up until every item is closed.
- Build working proficiency in Revit, Navisworks, and AutoCAD within your first six months, opening project models on your own, pulling the views engineers request, and flagging obvious clashes or omissions ahead of coordination meetings.
- Reprioritize daily across competing deadlines as urgent vendor issues and client requests come up.
You'd Be a Strong Fit If
- You have a PMP certification (strongly preferred)
- You have early-career experience in project coordination, administration, or a related support role, ideally at an architecture, engineering, or MEP firm, and you're the person your team relies on to know where every document and deadline stands.
- You have coordinated projects in construction, engineering, or a related technical field.
- You can keep several projects moving at once and still notice when a date or a missing spec sheet is about to become a problem.
- You communicate clearly with engineers, clients, and contractors, and you know which questions are yours to answer and which belong with an engineer.
- You're curious about BIM and want regular, hands-on time in Revit, Navisworks, and AutoCAD, even if you're still building that skill set.
Why VIATechnik
This role places you at the center of multiple active electrical construction projects, with regular exposure to new clients, contractors, and technical challenges. You'll work directly in Revit, Navisworks, and AutoCAD models as part of your everyday work, and as your fluency grows, so does your ownership over vendor documentation, scheduling, and the projects you support. The role is built as a direct path into project management or BIM and VDC coordination.
The pace is fast and decision-making can be informal. Engineers count on the coordinator to catch problems before they escalate. People who do well here enjoy bringing order to moving parts and stay steady when the plan changes.
Win-Win Statement
VIATechnik needs someone who will take ownership of the documentation, scheduling, and communication that keeps electrical projects moving, freeing engineers to focus on design and technical coordination. In return, you get a direct path toward project management or BIM coordination, hands-on exposure to the tools and projects that make that path real, and a role where your organization and follow-through are visible in every project's outcome. This is a genuine trade: your reliability for our investment in your growth.
Compensation and featured benefits:
- The pay for this position is $75,000– $100,000, and the role is eligible for bonuses. The actual salary offer may be different as we carefully consider a wide range of factors, including your skills, qualifications, location, and experience
- Health insurance with the choice of five plan options. We cover 70-95% of premiums for VIATechies and 65% of the premiums for dependents (depending on the plan chosen)
- Dental and vision insurance. We cover up to 75% of the monthly insurance premiums for VIATechies and up to 50% of the premiums for dependents (depending on the plans chosen)
- Open and flexible time off
- A 401(k) plan that is fully vested immediately
- Home office setup costs
- Paid holidays
As a minority and woman owned and led company, VIATechnik seeks to build a team that represents a variety of backgrounds, perspectives, and skills. VIATechnik is an Equal Employment Opportunity employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment.

Tips for Your Remote Electrical Project Engineer Job Search
Apply early to remote roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists remote electrical project engineer openings from across the U.S. in one place, so you can find roles that match your background and apply directly without sorting through unrelated postings.
Build a remote-ready project portfolio
Compile completed single-line diagrams, load calculations, and design packages you can share digitally. Remote hiring managers often assess technical capability before a first call, so having accessible work samples closes that gap fast.
Signal async communication skills upfront
Remote electrical project engineer roles depend on clear written handoffs. Mention specific tools you use for async coordination, such as Bluebeam for markup reviews or structured update emails to distributed stakeholders, directly in your resume and cover letter.
Target distributed-team engineering firms
Remote-first engineering consultancies and multi-site energy companies already have the workflows for off-site project engineers. Prioritize firms whose job descriptions reference cross-functional remote teams, since they have the systems to integrate you without requiring on-site ramp-up time.
Remote Electrical Project Engineer Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a remote electrical project engineer job?
Target companies with distributed engineering teams or remote-first cultures, since they have the infrastructure to support an electrical project engineer working off-site. Remote employers screen heavily for self-direction, clear written communication, and comfort with async collaboration tools like Confluence, Jira, or Teams. Demonstrating experience managing project milestones, vendor coordination, and design reviews independently gives you a real edge over candidates who need in-person oversight.
Which companies hire remote electrical project engineers?
Companies hiring remote electrical project engineers right now include GE Vernova, Viatechnik, and Alpha Hire, based on current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. Remote electrical project engineer roles tend to concentrate at remote-first engineering consultancies, distributed energy companies, and industrial technology firms that run project teams across multiple sites.
Can you get a remote electrical project engineer job with no experience?
Yes, but remote entry-level electrical project engineer roles are harder to land because employers expect you to manage tasks independently from day one without on-site mentorship. Smaller consultancies and renewable energy startups are more likely to hire junior remote candidates. Showing completed design projects, CAD work, or internship deliverables you can walk through asynchronously demonstrates the self-sufficiency remote employers need to see.
Do you need a degree for remote electrical project engineer jobs?
Usually, yes, since most remote electrical project engineer postings ask for a bachelor's degree in electrical engineering or a closely related field. That said, remote employers weigh demonstrated project outcomes, relevant certifications like a PE license or PMP, and a portfolio of completed electrical designs alongside formal credentials, so strong practical experience can offset the absence of a four-year degree in some cases.
Which industries hire the most remote electrical project engineers?
Remote electrical project engineer roles concentrate in Construction & Real Estate, Healthcare & Medical Services, and Consulting & Professional Services, based on current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. Those sectors hire electrical project engineers remotely because they run large, geographically distributed project portfolios where design, coordination, and vendor management can be handled effectively without a fixed site presence.
