Manager Electrical Distribution Jobs in Utah (NOW HIRING)

Overview
Quality Electrical Systems (QES) is seeking an Electrical Systems Engineer to support the development of custom-engineered electrical power distribution equipment used in industrial, utility, renewable energy, mining, oil & gas, and mission-critical infrastructure applications.
This role is ideal for an Electrical Engineer who enjoys both technical problem solving and structured engineering processes. You'll work alongside experienced Electrical, Mechanical, Manufacturing, and R&D engineers to define product requirements, develop system architectures, and ensure customer requirements are translated into manufacturable electrical products.
Unlike traditional power design roles, this position focuses on systems engineering—bringing structure to complex electrical projects by defining requirements, documenting system architecture, coordinating cross-functional engineering efforts, and ensuring design traceability from concept through validation.
If you're interested in the intersection of electrical engineering, product development, and systems engineering, this is an excellent opportunity to build a career while helping develop next-generation electrical equipment.

Primary Responsibilities
Capture and document customer, stakeholder, and technical requirements for new electrical products.
Develop system-level requirements, architecture documentation, and verification plans before detailed engineering begins.
Maintain requirements traceability throughout the product lifecycle.
Work closely with Electrical, Mechanical, Manufacturing, Quality, and Project Management teams to ensure engineering requirements remain aligned throughout development.
Support new product development efforts by defining technical scope, system interfaces, and validation strategies.
Assist with UL certification activities, product testing, and engineering documentation.
Create and maintain engineering documentation including:
System Requirements
System Architecture
Verification Plans
Test Documentation
Bills of Material (BOMs)
Engineering Specifications
Participate in engineering design reviews and help identify technical risks before manufacturing.
Support continuous improvement of engineering standards, templates, and documentation processes.
Help improve engineering efficiency by identifying process improvements and reducing rework.
