The main difference between an Entrylevel Electrical Design Engineer and an Electrical Drafter lies in their roles. The engineer focuses on designing electrical systems, performing calculations, and ensuring compliance, requiring a bachelor's degree. The drafter creates detailed technical drawings based on engineers' designs, often with a technical diploma. Both work in similar environments and industries, but their responsibilities and qualifications differ.

Design Systems, Inc. is looking for a motivated and hands-on Automation Engineer to help design, build, and launch innovative automation solutions for modern manufacturing. If you enjoy working with robotics, controls, and production systems-and like seeing your work come to life on the plant floor-we'd love to meet you.
This role blends design, programming, and on-site support to deliver reliable, safe, and high-performing automation systems for our customers.
Design and develop automation solutions for manufacturing equipment and production lines.
Define and implement applications including material handling, assembly, welding, and palletizing.
Support installations with layout validation, field issue resolution, and coordination with electrical and mechanical contractors.
Troubleshoot robotics, controls, and electrical systems during installation and startup.
Work closely with manufacturing, maintenance, and operations teams to meet cycle time, quality, safety, and reliability targets.
Support startup, commissioning, and production ramp-up in active manufacturing environments.
Travel as needed to support customer and project requirements.
Experience with industrial robotics application design, programming, and commissioning.
PLC programming and troubleshooting using Siemens and/or Rockwell (Allen-Bradley) platforms.
Understanding of robotic work cells, including tooling, end-of-arm tooling (EOAT), and material handling devices.
Hands-on installation support experience including layout validation and contractor coordination.
Strong troubleshooting skills across robotics, controls, and electrical systems.
Ability to collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams such as manufacturing, maintenance, and vendors.
Comfort working on-site in production environments and supporting system startups.
Work on real-world automation challenges with visible impact.
Collaborate with experienced engineers and operations teams.
Be part of projects from concept through production.
Enjoy a culture that values problem-solving, teamwork, and continuous improvement.
