● Develop and review electrical one-lines, P&IDs, and control schematics.
● Assist with equipment selection, system sizing, and component specification.
● Participate in site evaluations, technical reviews, and commissioning.
● Communicate with clients, vendors, and internal teams to ensure alignment and project success.
What We’re Looking For
● 1–5 years of experience in electrical or controls engineering, applications engineering, or systems design.
● Strong electrical background — mechanical knowledge is a plus, but not a substitute.
● Working knowledge of AutoCAD or similar design tools.
● Ability to interpret electrical and mechanical drawings.
● Excellent communication, curiosity, and a desire to learn quickly.
● Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or related field preferred.
● Willingness to travel up to 10% for site visits and project support.
