Job description

What You'll Do:
Design and detail complete industrial control systems, translating mechanical schematics and customer requirements into practical electrical solutions.
  • Create electrical schematics, system drawings, engineering calculations, bills of equipment, and technical documentation.
  • Develop and support PLC/controller software and graphical user interface (HMI/GUI) code for industrial equipment.
  • Select and specify electrical components, instrumentation, networking hardware, and purchased equipment.
  • Own the electrical scope of assigned projects, including schedules, subcontractor coordination, bid-package documentation, transmittals, and document control.
  • Partner directly with customers to establish design goals, clarify requirements, participate in design reviews, and communicate technical solutions.
  • Collaborate with mechanical engineering, estimating, fabrication, software, installation, suppliers, and contractors throughout the project lifecycle.
  • Follow designs through equipment fabrication and software testing, then support installation, site verification, startup, debugging, and commissioning.
  • Diagnose and resolve electrical hardware, software, networking, and installation issues-both before they occur and when rapid field support is needed.
  • Maintain project schedules and ensure electrical deliverables remain accurate, coordinated, and ready for execution.

What You'll Do:
Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering or Computer Engineering.
  • 5-10 years of related experience designing electrical systems for industrial controls and control panels.
  • Hands-on knowledge of PLC programming, HMI/GUI programming, computer operating systems, industrial networking, and process control.
  • Experience with industrial networks such as EtherNet/IP, PROFIBUS, PROFINET, DeviceNet, or comparable technologies.
  • Ability to read and interpret electrical and mechanical schematics and apply NEC and applicable local codes; knowledge of DIN standards is a plus.
  • Strong analytical, troubleshooting, and engineering-calculation skills, with the ability to define technical problems and develop practical solutions.
  • Experience specifying electrical components and supporting industrial equipment through fabrication, installation, startup, and debug.
  • Ability to understand and maintain project schedules while managing multiple priorities, documentation, and technical deliverables.
  • Clear verbal and written communication skills for working with customers, engineers, estimators, contractors, suppliers, and cross-functional teams.
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint; ability to learn Microsoft Visio. SAP knowledge is a plus.
  • Ability to work independently and collaboratively in a fast-moving, continuously evolving engineering environment.

Travel & Work Requirements
  • Travel approximately 30% to customer and project sites.
  • Provide on-site installation and startup support as project needs require.
  • Flexibility to work overtime, weekends, or holidays when necessary to support critical project milestones and customer commitments.

Why Join Dürr
  • Engineer complete, real-world control systems, not isolated components, and see your work progress from concept through successful startup.
  • Solve challenging technical problems on complex industrial automation projects for leading manufacturers.
  • Work across electrical design, controls software, industrial networking, fabrication, commissioning, and field execution.
  • Collaborate with experienced global engineering teams, customers, suppliers, and contractors while expanding your technical and project leadership skills.
  • Join a company known for advanced manufacturing technology, engineering excellence, and solutions that shape the future of industrial production.
