  • Maintain a clean, well-organized workspace and inform your supervisor when inventory items are running low.
  • Prepare completed panels for shipment and operate a forklift as needed.
  • Support continuous improvement efforts in the panel shop, including 5S practices, safety initiatives, and process improvements.
What You Bring
  • UL 508A certification (or equivalent verifiable UL 508A training/credential) and hands-on experience working in a UL 508A panel shop (Required).
  • Valid driver's license.
  • 5+ years of experience building and wiring industrial control panels in a manufacturing or systems-integration environment.
  • Strong ability to read and interpret electrical schematics, panel layout drawings, and wiring diagrams.
  • Solid understanding of industrial control components (breakers, contactors, relays, VFDs, PLCs, power supplies, terminal blocks, etc.).
  • Working knowledge of NFPA 79 and NEC/NFPA 70 as they apply to control panels.
  • High attention to detail and commitment to producing neat, well-organized, and clearly labeled panels.
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills; comfortable giving and receiving feedback and helping others learn.
  • Ability to meet deadlines under pressure.
What Sets You Apart
  • Experience mentoring or training junior panel builders or technicians.
  • Familiarity with panel shop quality systems, 5S practices, or continuous improvement initiatives.
  • Experience working in water/wastewater, manufacturing, or energy sectors.
  • Comfort partnering directly with engineering teams on design feedback and standardization.
What We Offer
  • Benefits: Medical, dental, vision, life insurance, EAP, FSA, HSA, LTD/STD insurance, and wellness benefits.
  • Career development: Opportunities for advancement and education reimbursement.
  • Flexible work schedule: We offer on-site, remote, and hybrid options, based on role and organizational needs.
