  • Experience designing industrial electrical control panels
  • Experience developing Bills of Material and technical documentation
  • Experience leading Factory Acceptance Tests (FAT)
  • Strong troubleshooting skills within industrial automation environments
  • Ability to read and interpret P&IDs
  • Working knowledge of NEC and UL 508
Preferred experience includes:
  • Proficiency with AutoCAD Electrical
  • Siemens PLCs
  • Safety PLCs
  • FactoryTalk Remote
  • EWON
  • Motion control and servo systems
  • Hydraulic and pneumatic systems
Why Join
  • Salary range of $70,000 to $200,000, depending on experience
  • Performance bonus
