What are the responsibilities and job description for the Sr. Electrical Engineer- Systems position at Mi-Jack Corp?
Are you an experienced Electrical Engineer with strong system-level design and integration expertise? Join our engineering team at Mi-Jack Products as a Senior Electrical Engineer, Systems, where you'll play a key role in defining, developing, and supporting complex electrical control systems across industrial product lines. In this role, you will collaborate with a multidisciplinary team to establish system requirements, guide implementation, and ensure robust, compliant solutions.
What You'll Do:
Define electrical system architectures and develop system-level requirements, including functional descriptions, interface definitions, and performance expectations for complex equipment
Translate system requirements into clear design criteria for downstream teams, including power distribution, control panels, harnessing, and device integration
Collaborate with CAD design teams by specifying layout intent, constraints, and system requirements (clearances, serviceability, environmental considerations), and reviewing deliverables for compliance to system intent
Provide system-level guidance to controls/software teams by defining control strategies, I/O requirements, sequencing intent, and functional behavior, without direct code development
Perform electrical analysis including load calculations, cable sizing, and application of derating factors to validate system performance against requirements
Apply industry standards such as NEC and UL at the system level, ensuring designs meet compliance, safety, and regulatory expectations
Support system integration, testing, and debugging activities, identifying and resolving issues across electrical, controls, and mechanical interfaces
Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure alignment between system architecture, physical implementation, and functional performance
Develop and maintain technical documentation for complex projects, including system descriptions, requirements, and design intent documentation
Identify and drive improvements in system design, integration practices, and engineering processes to improve reliability and efficiency
Support troubleshooting and root cause analysis for system-level issues across development, manufacturing, and field environments
What We're Looking For:
Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field
Experience designing and specifying electrical systems for complex equipment or industrial machinery
Working knowledge of electrical CAD platforms (e.g., AutoCAD Electrical, EPLAN) with the ability to define requirements and review outputs, rather than generate detailed drawings
Experience defining controls requirements and interfacing with PLC/software development teams in an industrial environment
Strong understanding of electrical codes and standards such as NEC and UL
Experience performing electrical calculations including load analysis and cable sizing
Demonstrated ability to support system integration, validation, and troubleshooting
Do You Have??
Strong system-level thinking with the ability to translate functional requirements into implementable designs
High degree of independence and ownership while working within defined system architectures
Effective collaboration across engineering disciplines, with the ability to guide and influence without direct authority
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, particularly in system integration and troubleshooting
Consistent delivery of high-quality work with attention to detail and adherence to standards
Ability to manage multiple priorities and meet project deadlines
Proactive mindset with a focus on identifying and implementing improvements
Work Environment & Travel
This role is primarily office-based in a professional engineering environment with occasional work in offsite settings. Approximately 10% domestic and international travel is expected.
Additional Information
Visa sponsorship is not available for this role.
Compensation/Benefits:
We foster a collaborative team environment that values innovation and encourages creative solutions to drive positive organizational impact. Our employees are the key to our success and help us stand out from our competitors. The base pay range for this role is $110,000 to $150,000. The final compensation offer may vary based on factors such as experience, education, skills, and location. We offer competitive pay, paid time off, and comprehensive benefits, including medical, dental, vision, life insurance, and a 401(k) plan.
