• Develop electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, point-to-point drawings, and control panel layouts for industrial control panels.
• Create and maintain AutoCAD Electrical project files, drawing sets, title blocks, wire numbers, device tags, and bill-of-material information.
• Translate engineering redlines, control narratives, equipment specifications, and design intent into accurate electrical drawings.
• Coordinate with Controls Engineers to clarify PLC I/O requirements, control logic, device selection, panel components, and system architecture.
• Design drawings involving PLCs, HMIs, VFDs, motor controls, relays, terminal blocks, power supplies, circuit protection, instrumentation, and industrial communication equipment.
• Apply internal design standards, customer specifications, NEC requirements, UL 508A practices, and other applicable electrical standards.
• Support panel fabrication teams by producing clear, organized, build-ready drawings and responding to questions during assembly and wiring.
• Incorporate design revisions, markups, redlines, field feedback, checkout findings, and testing updates throughout the project lifecycle.
• Participate in drawing reviews, design backchecks, and quality-control processes to ensure accuracy and completeness.
• Identify drawing conflicts, missing information, constructability issues, or potential design improvements and escalate them to Engineering.
• Maintain organized project documentation, drawing revisions, file naming, and revision-control records.
• Assist with updates needed for panel checkout, factory acceptance testing, commissioning, and field support.

Qualifications

• High school diploma or GED required; Associate's degree or technical certification in drafting, engineering technology, electrical design, or a related field preferred.
• Experience creating or revising electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, control drawings, or control panel layouts.
• Working knowledge of AutoCAD Electrical is required.
• Ability to read, interpret, and apply electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, panel layouts, control specifications, and equipment documentation.
• Understanding of industrial control components including PLCs, HMIs, VFDs, relays, terminal blocks, power supplies, circuit breakers, fuses, sensors, and instrumentation.
• Familiarity with low-voltage control circuits and basic industrial power distribution, including 24VDC, 120VAC, and 480VAC systems.
• Strong attention to detail, organization, and commitment to drawing accuracy.
• Ability to manage multiple design projects, priorities, revisions, and deadlines.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills.

Preferred Experience

• Experience designing industrial control panels for manufacturing, process automation, pumping systems, municipal utilities, water/wastewater, or similar environments.
• Knowledge of UL 508A, NFPA 70 / NEC, and industrial electrical design standards.
• Experience supporting panel fabrication, wiring, panel checkout, factory acceptance testing, or commissioning activities.
• Familiarity with Allen-Bradley / Rockwell Automation platforms, including CompactLogix, ControlLogix, PanelView, and PowerFlex.
• Understanding of PLC I/O architecture, remote I/O, control system design concepts, and industrial automation hardware.
• Interest in growing into Senior Designer, Lead Designer, Controls Hardware Engineer, or related technical leadership roles.
• Strong problem-solving skills and a proactive approach to identifying design improvements.

Work Environment

This is primarily an office-based electrical design role in the Kansas City area. Regular collaboration with Controls Engineers, project managers, fabrication personnel, and field service teams is expected.
