Electrical Engineer Operations Jobs in Dallas, TX

We are seeking a Senior Electrical Engineer. This is a true Electrical Engineering role focused on electrical system design, power distribution, control panel design, electrical schematics, machine wiring architecture, and industrial power systems who will be responsible for the design, development, and support of the electrical systems that power NPI's automated mail and parcel sortation equipment. This is a highly technical electrical engineering role focused on electrical design, power distribution, electrical schematics, control panel design, power systems, and wiring architecture for industrial equipment.

The ideal candidate will have extensive experience designing and documenting complete electrical systems, including power distribution networks, industrial control panels, wiring diagrams, single-line diagrams, cable schedules, panel layouts, and electrical bills of material. This position will be responsible for selecting and specifying electrical components such as circuit protection devices, disconnects, power supplies, relays, terminal blocks, motor controls, VFDs, and power distribution equipment while ensuring compliance with applicable electrical and safety standards.

The Senior Electrical Engineer will develop and maintain production-ready electrical drawing packages, perform electrical load calculations, conductor sizing, voltage drop analysis, and support electrical system troubleshooting throughout the product lifecycle. This role will also establish and maintain wiring architecture standards and electrical design practices that improve reliability, maintainability, manufacturability, and serviceability across NPI's product portfolio.

Working closely with Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing, Project Management, and Field Services, the Senior Electrical Engineer will take ownership of electrical designs from concept through production release, installation, commissioning, and ongoing product support. While the position interfaces with PLC-based control systems, its primary focus is the design and implementation of robust industrial electrical systems rather than PLC programming or automation software development.

The successful candidate will possess a strong understanding of industrial power systems, control panel design, machine electrical architecture, motor control systems, electrical documentation, and applicable standards including NEC, NFPA, UL508A, CSA, IEC, and CE requirements, enabling the delivery of safe, reliable, compliant, and cost-effective solutions for NPI customers worldwide.

Additionally, this position may involve improving, creating, establishing, and implementing objectives and initiatives under the supervision of the Senior Engineering Manager, to include:

• Estimating and meeting delivery deadlines while keeping projects on schedule and on budget;
• Identifying and providing solutions for performance/operational challenges and errors;
• Providing valuable feedback in coordination with making strategic decisions for functionality and performance of systems;
• Working within budget limitations and customer quoted pricing proposals;
• Managing and resolving escalated issues arising from operations;
• Professionally expressing needs and concerns within your team, as well as effectively communicating with other NPI departments and teams;
• Reviewing and approving work product and team projects (drawings, schematics, designs) completed by engineering team;
• Conducting various tests for quality assurance to verify the quality of completed projects.

• Select replacements for obsolete PCB and system components
• Redesign unmaintainable PCBs
• Debug PCB/System issues
• Develops new product designs from concept, through production, per customer specifications and /or site operations.
• Responsible for loading all products released BOMs (Bill of Material) through SYSPRO software.
• Responsible for revision control and data management. Uses Engineering Change Notice (ECN) procedure for design documentation. Coordinates product activities with engineering, manufacturing, and purchasing using these procedures.
• Understands relevant international electrical and safety agency codes (UL, CSA, NEC, IEC, CE) to formulate the product requirements based on these codes and translate them into physical product features that meet these requirements.
• Develops schematic diagrams, wiring diagrams, and assembly instructions for electrical controls.
• Create control panel layouts for motor control, AC & DC power distribution and low voltage I/O controls associated with PLC’s, VFD’s, safety relays and PCB’s.
• Report project progress and status to the Project Manager and Engineering Manager (Project Status Report including risks and opportunities).
• Maintain existing PCB designs.
• Support Field Technicians for install and debug of PCB controlled systems.
• General support of Letter Sorter machine control hardware.
• Assist with Package Sorter control/power designs.

• Postural changes such as sitting, reaching, climbing, standing, walking and lifting intermittently
• Standing and walking on cement

These duties and responsibilities should not be construed to imply these requirements are the exclusive standards of the position. Incumbents will follow any other instructions, and perform any other related duties, as may be required by their supervisor
