  • Develop and execute design-validation, production-test, and troubleshooting procedures appropriate to the product or application.
  • Select and specify electrical components based on performance, reliability, availability, cost, regulatory requirements, and established engineering practices.
  • Maintain engineering files and product documentation in accordance with revision-control, change-management, and MRP-system requirements.
  • Serve as an electrical engineering resource to manufacturing, purchasing, applications, service, and other internal teams.
  • Work directly with suppliers to evaluate components, resolve technical issues, and develop appropriate purchasing and performance specifications.
  • Identify and implement improvements to engineering processes, documentation, and tools that improve quality, consistency, and development efficiency.
  • Collaborate with engineers, designers, and other team members, sharing technical knowledge and providing guidance where appropriate.

KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS REQUIREMENTS

  • Two or more years of relevant experience in electrical design, control systems, engineered-to-order products, product support, sustaining engineering, or a related field. Two or more years of experience with relay systems, including the ability to understand, troubleshoot, and work with relay-based electrical components.
  • Experience interpreting and developing electrical schematics, technical specifications, bills of material, and engineering documentation.
  • Demonstrated ability to analyze technical problems, develop practical solutions, and communicate recommendations to technical and nontechnical stakeholders.

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE
  • Experience supporting custom-engineered or configured-to-order products.
  • Experience with industrial electrical control systems, electromechanical systems, motor controls, sensors, relays, contactors, programmable controllers, or solid-state control devices.
  • Familiarity with applicable electrical, product-safety, and machine-safety standards, including UL 507, UL 508A, NFPA 70, or similar standards.
  • Experience supporting manufacturing, troubleshooting production or field issues, and conducting root-cause investigations.
  • Experience creating and processing engineering changes, including updates to drawings, bills of material, specifications, and related product documentation.
