Remote Cable Design Engineer information

What is a remote cable design engineer?

Remote Cable Design Engineers are professionals who specialize in designing and developing cable systems—such as electrical, fiber optic, or telecommunication cables—while working from a remote location. They use specialized software to create detailed layouts and specifications, ensuring cables meet technical and safety standards. These engineers often collaborate with clients and other engineering teams virtually to deliver optimal cable design solutions for various industries, including construction, telecommunications, and energy. The role typically requires a strong background in electrical or mechanical engineering as well as experience with CAD software and relevant standards.

How does a remote cable design engineer typically collaborate with cross-functional teams during a project?

As a Remote Cable Design Engineer, you will frequently coordinate with electrical engineers, project managers, and manufacturing teams to ensure your designs meet technical specifications and project timelines. Collaboration often takes place via virtual meetings, shared design platforms, and cloud-based documentation. Clear communication and timely feedback are essential, as your work directly impacts system integration and product reliability. Being proactive and responsive helps maintain project momentum despite the remote nature of the role.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a remote cable design engineer, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Remote Cable Design Engineer, you need a solid background in electrical or mechanical engineering, with expertise in cable design principles and relevant engineering standards. Familiarity with CAD software, cable modeling tools, and industry-specific design platforms, as well as certifications like PE or IPC, is often required. Strong problem-solving abilities, attention to detail, and effective remote communication skills distinguish top performers in this role. These skills and qualities ensure accurate, compliant cable designs and successful collaboration with cross-functional teams, even when working remotely.

What is the difference between Remote Cable Design Engineer vs Remote Electrical Engineer?

AspectRemote Cable Design EngineerRemote Electrical Engineer
Required CredentialsBachelor's in Electrical Engineering or related, cable design certificationsBachelor's in Electrical Engineering, PE license often preferred
Work EnvironmentDesign labs, CAD software, client sitesDesign offices, project sites, testing labs
Industry UsageTelecom, aerospace, consumer electronicsPower systems, electronics, automation
Common Search/ComparisonYesYes

The main difference is that Remote Cable Design Engineers focus specifically on designing cables and wiring systems, often requiring specialized knowledge in cable materials and configurations. Remote Electrical Engineers have a broader scope, working on electrical systems and circuits across various industries. Both roles require electrical engineering credentials, but Cable Design Engineers emphasize cable-specific skills and design tools.

Job description

Oomnitza offers the industry's most versatile Enterprise Technology Management platform that orchestrates and automates key business processes for IT. Our SaaS solution, with agentless integrations, best practices and low-code workflows, enables enterprises to leverage their existing infrastructure systems and automate processes such as offboarding, onboarding, audit readiness, refresh forecasting and more, thereby reducing reliance on error-prone manual tasks and tickets. We help some of the most well-known and innovative companies to improve efficiency, expedite audits, mitigate cyber risk and eliminate redundant IT spend.
Oomnitza is hiring a UX Design Engineer to own the design system, component library, and prototyping tooling that powers our Product Engineering team. In our model, Product Engineers run discovery and prototyping end-to-end; your job is to give them an opinionated, well-tested, well-documented platform so they can move fast without losing design quality.
This is a hands-on role. Most of your time is in code and design tooling: maintaining the system, evolving the Storybook component library, building scaffolding that makes prototyping fast, and consulting on the small number of interactions that are genuinely novel. The role can sit in the US or in Ireland since most of the work is with tooling and systems.
What You'll Do
  • Own the Oomnitza design system end-to-end: visual language, interaction patterns, accessibility guardrails, and the rules that keep the product feeling like one product.
  • Maintain and extend the Storybook component library. Components should be correct, documented, performant, accessible, and easy for Product Engineers to compose.
  • Build and maintain the prototyping tooling (design tokens, AI-prompt scaffolds, design markdowns, starter kits) that lets Product Engineers move from idea to validated prototype in days.
  • Consult with Product Engineers on UX interactions that fall outside the patterns, and produce the new pattern, component, or guidance that adds back to the system.
  • Partner with engineering to keep the design system and the implementation library aligned. Identify when a one-off interaction should be promoted into the system.
  • Hold the quality bar for design output across the team. Review prototypes against the system, flag drift, and make the right thing easy to do.
  • Track the design-engineering space (Figma plugins, AI design tooling, headless component libraries, accessibility standards) and propose investments that make the team faster.

What We're Looking For
  • Bachelor's degree in design, human-computer interaction, computer science, or a related field, or equivalent experience.
  • 5+ years combined across product design and front-end engineering. You are equally comfortable in Figma and in a modern front-end codebase.
  • Experience owning or substantially contributing to a production design system and a Storybook or equivalent component library.
  • Strong front-end skills: React, TypeScript, modern CSS including design tokens, and accessibility best practices.
  • Comfort with AI-enabled design and prototyping workflows. You see AI as a way to make the design system more useful, not as a replacement for it.
  • Strong taste paired with the discipline to systematize it. You recognize good design and codify it into reusable patterns and components.
  • Strong written and verbal communication. You can document a pattern, brief a Product Engineer, and influence without authority.
  • Self-directed and outcome-oriented. You identify the highest-leverage investments in the system and prioritize without close supervision.
  • B2B SaaS or enterprise software experience is a strong plus.

What we can offer you
  • Career Growth: Top performers will have an opportunity to help shape the team. Working directly with the founders to drive initiatives and create a structure that scales
  • Market-competitive salary + equity
  • A once-in-a-lifetime career opportunity to get onboard a fast-growing business that is venture-backed by Shasta Ventures, SYN Ventures and Riverside Acceleration Capital

The base salary range for this position is: $120,000-165,000
Oomnitza recruits, employs, trains, compensates and promotes regardless of race, religion, color, national origin, sex, disability, age, veteran status, and other protected status as required by applicable law.
