Role Overview

Your dedicated Electrical Designer brings MEP-grade production expertise at 50%+ lower cost than a US-based hire. They produce power distribution drawings, lighting designs, panel schedules, and coordinated Revit MEP models under the direction of your licensed Electrical Engineer of Record. Timezone-aligned with US teams, fluent English, and pre-vetted for NEC compliance workflows — they integrate directly into your project delivery pipeline using your tools, templates, and standards.

Why Hire a Remote Electrical Designer from LATAM?

Electrical design is documentation-intensive and tool-driven — an ideal remote function. Your designer participates in coordination reviews, design development, and document production during your US business hours. LATAM timezone overlap (0–3 hours behind EST/CST) enables real-time collaboration. You provide engineering direction and PE stamp; your dedicated designer handles the production workload.

Engagement Options

Flexible arrangements to fit your capacity needs – dedicated individuals or scalable team setups.

Dedicated Individual Electrical Designer

Full-time (40h/week) or part-time (20h/week) Electrical Designer embedded into your MEP team. Works in your Revit/AutoCAD environment, follows your firm standards, and produces deliverables to your CD set requirements.

From ~$3,500/mo

MEP Production Pod

Two or more MEP designers (electrical, mechanical, plumbing) working in parallel for high-volume projects or multi-phase production workloads. Optional PM-level coordination overlay available.

Custom — based on team size and scope

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about hiring a Electrical Designer through LatAm Scalers.

What does an Electrical Designer do on a typical MEP project?

An Electrical Designer produces power distribution layouts, lighting design with fixture schedules, panel schedules, one-line diagrams, load calculations, branch circuit plans, and equipment coordination. They work under the oversight of your licensed electrical engineer, producing construction documents aligned to NEC and local jurisdictional requirements.

Who stamps and takes design authority for electrical drawings?

Your licensed Electrical Engineer of Record retains full design authority and stamp responsibility. Your dedicated Electrical Designer produces drawings and calculations under your direction, subject to your review and sign-off before any submission or permit issuance.

What software do your Electrical Designers use?

Our specialists are proficient in Revit MEP for coordinated BIM electrical models, AutoCAD and AutoCAD Electrical for 2D production drafting, AGi32 and DIALux for lighting calculations, and ETAP for power system analysis (where required). We align with your preferred platform and deliverable format.

How quickly can we onboard a vetted Electrical Designer?

We typically present vetted candidates within 48 hours after a scoping call. Once project standards, templates, and tool access are confirmed, most designers ramp up within one week.

What is the cost difference vs. a US-based Electrical Designer?

US-based junior-to-mid Electrical Designers typically cost $70,000–$110,000/year fully loaded. LATAM-based equivalents through LatAm Scalers start at approximately $3,500/month ($42,000/year) — a savings of 50–70% with no reduction in technical quality.
