Industrial Electrical Design Specialist

Advantage Technical
Houston, TX Full Time
POSTED ON 4/27/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 6/27/2026
Design the Systems That Power Industrial Innovation
If you enjoy turning concepts into detailed, build-ready designs and thrive in a collaborative engineering environment, this opportunity is for you. We’re hiring an Industrial Electrical Design Specialist to develop high-quality electrical drawings and support automation and power distribution projects from concept through execution.

Hours and Pay
  • Pay: $45.00 – $55.00/hour (based on experience)
  • Schedule: Monday – Friday, 7:00 AM – 4:00 PM (Onsite)

Benefits
This role offers a comprehensive benefits package designed to support your overall well-being. Employees have access to medical, dental, and vision insurance, along with pet insurance and a Health Savings Account (HSA). Additional offerings include a 401(k) retirement savings plan, Employee Assistance Program (EAP), commuter and parking benefits, AD&D insurance, and exclusive employee discount programs.

What You’ll Do
  • Develop accurate, detailed electrical drawings for industrial systems with a focus on power distribution and automation
  • Create electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, and panel layouts using AutoCAD Electrical
  • Design layouts for PLCs, VFDs, and motor/stator systems
  • Support senior engineers with calculations, design documentation, and project reporting
  • Collaborate with engineers, project teams, and clients to meet specifications and deadlines
  • Conduct occasional site visits to support installations, troubleshoot issues, and verify design accuracy
  • Ensure all designs comply with applicable electrical codes, safety standards, and industry best practices

What You Bring
  • High School Diploma or GED required (technical certifications or higher education preferred)
  • 5 years of experience in electrical design within industrial or manufacturing environments
  • Strong proficiency with AutoCAD Electrical
  • Solid understanding of power distribution systems, control systems, and industrial automation
  • Ability to interpret and create detailed schematics and technical drawings
  • Strong communication skills and ability to collaborate across teams

Why This Role Stands Out
This is a hands-on design role where your work directly impacts how systems are built and operated. You’ll be part of a team that values precision, collaboration, and technical expertise—giving you the opportunity to contribute to meaningful industrial projects while advancing your career.

Apply today to take the next step in your electrical design career and help build the systems that keep industry moving.
