If you are a talented Electrical Controls Engineer looking to step out of a narrow, repetitive role at a massive conglomerate, this direct-hire integration seat offers the ultimate blend of autonomy, technical variety, and long-term growth. Operating as a premier, highly agile custom automation integrator in the Greater Milwaukee area, this company designs and builds ground-up robotic cells and custom machinery for diverse manufacturing applications across North America.

Unlike corporate environments that restrict engineering to rigid siloes, this team embraces a true "end-to-end ownership" culture. You will own complete electrical projects from scratch—taking initial concepts into AutoCAD schematics, designing panel layouts, generating full Bills of Materials (BOMs), executing logic programming, and overseeing final live commissioning. Backed by exceptional employee retention, an average tenure of 5–6 years, a zero-layoff history, and flexible scheduling, this is an ideal long-term home for an engineer seeking stable career progression and full project control.

What You Will Be Doing (Daily Responsibilities)

• Design Ground-Up Electrical Systems: Develop complete electrical schematics, power distribution layouts, safety circuits, and control architectures from scratch using AutoCAD / AutoCAD Electrical.
• Engineered Panel Layouts & BOM Generation: Create precise enclosure panel layouts and generate comprehensive Bills of Materials (BOMs) specifying component hardware, terminal blocks, disconnects, and field cabling.
• Program PLC & HMI Systems: Write, test, and optimize Allen-Bradley / Rockwell PLC control logic and HMI interface applications for non-repetitive, high-mix custom automation builds.
• Shop-Floor Hardware Validation: Participate directly in hands-on shop assembly and panel wiring, verifying low-level electrical connections and hardware integration prior to runoff.
• Integrate Vision & Robotics: Calibrate advanced 2D/3D vision platforms (Cognex, Keyence) and FANUC robotic cells for high-speed material handling, guidance, and part inspection.
• Targeted Field Commissioning: Conduct short, high-visibility client commissioning trips (10–15% travel) to oversee system integration, startup, and customer handoff.

What We Are Looking For (Requirements & Qualifications)

• Degree Credential: Associate Degree (A.S.) or Bachelor’s Degree (B.S.) in Electrical Engineering, Electrical Engineering Technology, Automation, or Mechatronics.
• 3+ Years Electrical Design from scratch: Proven track record designing complete industrial electrical schematics,
• 3+ years of designing control circuits and panel layouts
• 3+ years of creating Bill of Materials from scratch (AutoCAD / ACAD Electrical).
• PLC & HMI Programming Depth: Verifiable hands-on experience programming Allen-Bradley / Rockwell PLCs and configuring HMI control systems for industrial machinery.
• Stable Employment Background: Demonstrated history of solid job stability, career progression, and long-term commitment with previous employers.
• Light Travel Capability: Willingness and ability to travel 10–15% domestically for client startups and system commissioning.
• Location & Authorization: Must reside within a comfortable daily commuting distance of the Oak Creek / South Milwaukee, WI area, and hold US Citizenship or a Green Card.

Preferred Technical Assets (Bonus Skills)

• FANUC Robotics Integration: Experience programming, teaching paths, or interfacing FANUC robotic arms alongside PLC cell controllers.
• Advanced Vision & SCADA: Familiarity with Cognex, Keyence, FANUC iR Vision systems, or Ignition SCADA platforms.
• Hands-On Electrical Assembly: Direct experience with panel wiring, motor drive configuration (VFDs), and low-voltage field device wiring.
