About The Company

Utopia is an ultra-luxury hospitality and lifestyle brand creating a global ecosystem of properties and experiences.

We develop private villa retreats in beautiful locations around the world, each with high-end service. Utopia also offers a wider ecosystem of leisure experiences and services available both to those staying on property and to external visitors.

Utopia designs and builds its properties in-house. Our projects span the full journey: from concept and architecture to construction, interiors, landscape, guest experience, and long-term operation. For architects and designers, this means contributing on properties from the ground up, with the ability to influence how each place is planned, built, and experienced. For hospitality professionals, it means collaborating with a brand where service is personal, attentive, and built around each guest’s stay.

We’re a young, ambitious team with high standards and a hands-on approach. We value strong ideas, practical thinking, attention to detail, and people who are ready to take ownership of their part of each project. If you’re interested in architecture, design, hospitality, or guest experience, we invite you to explore opportunities with Utopia.

About The Opportunity

We are looking for a dynamic and experienced AV & BMS Design Engineer to support ongoing design development of several luxury projects worldwide, focusing on boutique hospitality assets.

This opportunity requires a creative and technical professional who can deliver efficient and innovative engineering solutions while maintaining the aesthetic and functional standards expected in luxury developments.

You will take ownership of design development for luxury villas and boutique hotels' engineering systems. You'll operate independently day-to-day,



coordinating with the team when needed and delivering intermediate results weekly. You will collaborate closely with the MEP design manager as your main point of contact, alongside the entire design team — including architects, interior designers, structural engineers, the FF&E; procurement team, and client representatives.

To succeed in this opportunity, you should have excellent communication and presentation skills, and be punctual, detail-oriented, self-organized, and motivated to deliver quality results.

What You Will Do

- Design AV & BMS engineering systems for luxury villas and boutique hotels, ensuring compliance with local building codes, industry standards, and client requirements.
- Collaborate closely with architects, interior designers, and other engineers to integrate systems seamlessly into the overall project.
- Participate proactively in spatial coordination with architectural and structural models, researching efficient methodologies and systems to preserve design intent and deliver a high-end user experience.
- Resolve technical issues and challenges promptly throughout the design phase.
- Lead the development of detailed drawings, technical documentation, and system specifications using CAD tools, with support from BIM modelers.
- Oversee equipment selection and market research, keeping specifications aligned with project requirements, the latest technology, and sustainability goals.
- Provide input during value engineering discussions to balance cost, quality, and performance.




- Supervise design development and review and approve deliverables from third-party designers, consultants, and surveyors, staying current on regulations and trends across AV & BMS systems in the luxury hospitality sector.

Requirements

- Degree in Electrical or Building Engineering with a concentration in AV & BMS systems.
- 4 to 10 years of experience in design consultancy or general contracting.
- Experience working on low-rise residential and hospitality projects — private homes and villas, hotels and resorts.
- Excellent communication and presentation skills.
- Proficiency in AutoCAD.
- Professional level of English, both written and verbal.

Nice To Have

- Fluency in Spanish.
- Experience in projects in the Caribbean region.

What We Offer

- Remote collaboration. This opportunity is fully remote, giving you the flexibility to contribute from wherever suits you best while structuring your day for focused, independent delivery.
- All tools are covered. We provide AutoCAD and every other license you need for design and coordination, kept up to date.
- General project exposure. Contribute to luxury hospitality developments across Europe, Africa, and Latin America.
- A truly international team. Collaborate across cultures, disciplines, and time zones with people bringing diverse perspectives and expertise.
- High ownership environment. We value initiative, independent thinking, and people who take ownership of meaningful contributions.
- Cross-disciplinary collaboration. Engage directly with interiors, architecture, landscape, construction, and operations teams from the earliest project stages.
