Electrical Engineer, PE I

ENFRA
Westmont, IL Full Time
POSTED ON 9/29/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 10/28/2026
At ENFRA, we don’t just design—we deliver outcomes that transform how energy infrastructure is financed, built, and sustained.

As the leader in Energy‑as‑a‑Service (EaaS), we integrate engineering, design, construction, financing, and long‑term operations into a single, accountable team—removing traditional barriers between design and execution. This means our engineers don’t work in silos or simply hand off drawings; they help shape full‑lifecycle solutions that reduce costs, improve performance, and create measurable, lasting value for our clients.

Our approach goes beyond the traditional models. We combine real‑time collaboration with constructors, operators, and energy specialists to design systems that are not only technically sound—but constructible, operable, and optimized for lifecycle performance. Every project is grounded in accountability, data, and a commitment to delivering guaranteed outcomes—not just design intent.

Through our EaaS model, we empower clients to modernize infrastructure without upfront capital, while achieving guaranteed savings, improved resiliency, and long‑term sustainability. Our teams play a direct role in accelerating the energy transition—delivering solutions that decarbonize facilities, enhance operations, and future‑proof critical infrastructure.

At ENFRA, you’ll join a multidisciplinary team that spans the full project lifecycle—from concept through optimization—giving you the opportunity to see your work realized, measured, and continuously improved. We value practical innovation, cross‑disciplinary thinking, and engineers who want to make a real‑world impact beyond the drawing set.

If you’re looking to move beyond traditional design and be part of a model that is reshaping the industry—ENFRA is where engineering meets ownership, accountability, and impact.
