• Create custom control cabinets for test rig sub-components, ensuring optimal electro-mechanical hardware integration.
• Design Data Acquisition Systems (DAS) and Unit Under Test (UUT) Tester control systems.
• Create electrical schematics and documentation using Visio.
• Participate in Electrical Design Reviews and collaborate closely with multidisciplinary teams to meet project milestones.
• Support the design, development, and integration of complex electrical systems, including PCB layouts and FPGA implementations.
• Conduct root cause analysis on electrical failures or system malfunctions, implementing effective troubleshooting strategies using tools like oscilloscopes, ohmmeters, and signal processing techniques.
• Work closely with manufacturing teams on processes involving surface mount technology (SMT).
• Perform system testing, debugging, and configuration of Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) and firmware development environments.
• Ensure electrical safety standards are met by adhering to NEC codes and industry best practices during design and implementation phases.
• Support mechanical integration efforts by coordinating with mechanical engineers using SolidWorks for comprehensive system design.
• Document all design specifications, schematics, test procedures, and technical reports accurately for project records and compliance audits.

Required Qualifications:

• Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering (BSEE) from an accredited institution.
• 0 to 6 years of Electrical Engineering experience with a focus on system design, PCB development, FPGA, or embedded systems.
• Familiarity with temperature controllers, PID loops, and a foundational understanding of feedback loops and error signals.
• Experience with pressure transducers, thermocouples, RTDs, and data acquisition systems is preferred.
• Working knowledge of DVMs, function generators, counters, and oscilloscopes.
• Hands-on exposure to manufacturing processes, including surface mount technology (SMT) and manual or machine-assisted soldering.
• Knowledge of mechanical engineering principles related to electrical systems integration.
• Familiarity with programmable logic controllers (PLCs) or similar embedded hardware solutions.
• Ability to perform comprehensive testing and troubleshooting using tools such as oscilloscopes, ohmmeters, and signal analyzers.
• Understanding of industry standards, such as NEC codes for electrical safety compliance.
• Able to travel both within the USA and internationally.

Preferred Skills:

• Familiarity with AS9100/ISO 9001 quality frameworks.
