Founding Electrical Engineer

• Own electrical design for custom control panels end-to-end
• Help standardize designs and create templates in our in-house design solution
• Improve quote accuracy of our custom solution(BOMs, wiring, labor assumptions)
• Own creation of manufacturing automations for back-of-house
• Jump in on hands-on shop work when needed (we’re a small team)
• Work with component vendors and purchasing department to specify and order components.
• Use I/O lists and controls layouts to develop schematics
• Comfortable with working in a lot of ambiguity
  

• Understanding of NEC & IEC codes to create electrical designs
• Design and layout of control panels, keeping in mind panel fabrication process, component limitations such as wiring methods and heat distribution, and cable penetrations.
• Heavy experience in AutoCAD Electrical or EPLAN (at least one; open to learning the other)
• Has engineered and designed multiple UL508A control panels in the real world (motor starters, power distribution, etc.)
• Tech-savvy. Comfortable with modern tools automation. Has used AI tools (ChatGPT/Claude/etc.) to speed up work
  

• Can lift 50 lbs
• Willing to do manual work sometimes (panel reviews, checking builds, shop support)
  

• BS in EE / ME / EET
• 4 Years experience
  

• You’ve built personal projects (electronics, robotics, home automation, cars, etc.)
• You’ve worked with panel shops, integrators, or manufacturing teams
• You like creating reusable libraries, templates, standards, macros.
• Controls/automation exposure: PLCs, industrial networking, I/O, sensors, commissioning, troubleshooting (even basic)
• PLC programming (Allen-Bradley / Siemens / Codesys)
• Comfortable reading/writing simple IO lists and thinking through sensors, actuators, and interlocks
• Commissioning / troubleshooting exposure (debugging wiring issues, validating field signals, using a meter, chasing a problem to root cause)
