Job description

Prysmian is the world leader in the energy and telecom cable systems industry. Each year, the company manufactures thousands of miles of underground and submarine cables and systems for power transmission and distribution, as well as medium low voltage cables for the construction and infrastructure sectors. We also produce a comprehensive range of optical fibers, copper cables and connectivity for voice, video and data transmission for the telecommunication sector.
We are 30,000 employees, across 50+ countries. Everyone at Prysmian has the potential to make their mark; because whatever you do, wherever you are based, you will be part of a company that is helping transform the world around us.
Make Your Mark at Prysmian Group - Join Us
Overview:
Prysmian is seeking a technically strong, detail-oriented engineer with a passion for collaboration and continuous improvement to join our Specialties, Industrial & Construction design team.
Reporting to the Design Engineering Manager, this role is at the intersection of engineering, manufacturing, and customer engagement. You will transform technical requirements into manufacturable cable designs-balancing performance, cost, and compliance-while helping drive innovation across our product portfolio.
This is not just a design role. It is a business-connected engineering position that influences product capability, plant efficiency, and customer success.
Principal Duties & Responsibilities:
  • Product Design & Execution
    • Develop and maintain cable designs, specifications, drawings, and data sheets
    • Translate customer requirements and industry standards into manufacturable solutions
    • Utilize in-house cable design systems (Cable Builder and/or Common Analisi) to generate BOM's and routings for manufacturing of Prysmian products at its facilities
  • Cost & Commercial Support
    • Generate accurate cost models for quotations and production
    • Analyze cost drivers and support benchmarking across facilities
    • Partner with commercial teams to deliver competitive solutions
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration
    • Work closely with manufacturing, operations, and commercial teams to ensure efficient execution
    • Support plant capability assessments and manufacturability decisions
    • Provide technical input to improve throughput, quality, and product consistency
  • Governance & Compliance
    • Maintain design systems, technical instructions (TIs), SOPs, and product data integrity
    • Ensure all designs comply with applicable standards (UL, CSA, ICEA, and others)
    • Stay current on evolving regulatory and certification requirements
  • Innovation & Continuous Improvement
    • Identify opportunities to enhance products, reduce cost, and improve performance
    • Support new product development and experimental trials, including documentation and execution
    • Maintain strong operating knowledge of appropriate industry standards and including all updates as well as ICEA, UL, CSA and other certification listings
    • Prepare design documentation for factory level experimental trials/product development concerning new compound implementation and associated cable products.

Minimum Qualifications
  • Bachelor's degree in Mechanical, Electrical Engineering, or related field - or equivalent experience; foundational engineering knowledge is essential for interpreting specifications, understanding cable constructions, and supporting feasibility assessments.
  • 2-4 years of experience in a manufacturing or engineering environment - with exposure to technical problem‑solving, process understanding, or product‑related decision‑making.
  • Strong analytical, problem‑solving, and technical writing skills - ability to evaluate multiple specifications, determine compliance, and document conclusions clearly.
  • Effective communication skills across all levels - comfortable interacting with operators, engineers, product managers, and leadership to gather information and make informed decisions.
  • Self‑starter with the ability to work independently - able to proactively reach out to others, ask questions, and collaborate to resolve gray‑area decisions.
  • Proficiency with Microsoft tools - Excel, PowerPoint, Word, Access; experience with ERP or database systems preferred for managing specifications and documentation.

Preferred Qualifications
  • Programming knowledge - helpful for working with the back end of design systems; Java experience is beneficial for system programming tasks.
  • Experience interpreting complex specifications - ability to analyze multiple industry, customer, and internal specs, determine the most stringent requirements, and assess compliance (Specification Engineering experience).
  • Experience resolving specification‑related issues - such as evaluating whether a cable with deviations can still meet industry standards or customer requirements.
  • Leadership interest or experience - potential to grow into leadership roles; ability to influence decisions and collaborate across functions.
  • Experience in a specification engineering role - or similar background involving detailed technical documentation, feasibility assessments, and cross‑functional coordination.

Work Environment/Physical Demands:
  • Works out of a normal office environment with standard office equipment available.
  • Will be required to sit, bend, kneel, squat, use keyboard, read, write, and speak fluently.
  • Employee will regularly be required to lift and carry objects of 10-25 pounds as needed.
  • Employee will occasionally be required to lift and carry objects of 25-30 pounds as needed.
  • Employee will be required to work productively and cooperatively in a high-volume, fast paced, highly pressured environment and be able to respond efficiently and courteously to unanticipated problems and crisis.
  • This role is not typically exposed to adverse environmental conditions, except excessive eye strain and possible lifting injuries
  • When travel is necessary, will be exposed to typical travel environment and surroundings
