  • Select and specify components (breakers, relays, PLCs, power supplies, etc.) in accordance with UL and NEC standards
  • Create and manage AutoCAD Electrical drawings, including panel layouts, schematics, and bills of materials
  • Develop complete panel documentation packages (BOMs, wiring diagrams, nameplate details, and labeling requirements)
  • Ensure designs meet UL508A, NEC, and customer-specific requirements
  • Support panel builds and production teams, including reviewing builds, resolving design issues, and providing technical guidance
  • Develop and execute factory testing procedures (FAT) for control panels and systems
  • Program and support PLC-based control systems (ladder logic / function block) for OEM equipment
  • Generate system documentation, including sequences of operation, installation manuals, and technical instructions
  • Drive continuous improvement and cost reduction initiatives in panel design and component selection

Required Qualifications
  • Degree in Electrical Engineering (or related field) or 5+ years of relevant control panel design experience
  • Strong hands-on experience with UL508A control panel design and compliance
  • Proficiency in AutoCAD Electrical for schematic and panel layout development

Preferred Experience
  • Direct experience with UL508A certification processes and panel shop environments
  • Familiarity with PLC platforms such as:

    • Siemens (LOGO!)
    • Unitronics (UniStream)
    • WAGO (Codesys)
  • Experience supporting panel fabrication, testing, and commissioning
  • Understanding of Design for Manufacturability (DFM) principles

Why This Role
  • High-impact role focused on true engineering design—not just support
  • Direct involvement in UL508A panel builds from concept through production
