Sr. Electrical Engineer (power distribution exp. req.) Description
We're partnering with Burger Boat Company to hire a Sr. Electrical Engineer/Engineering Supervisor in Manitowoc, WI. This role combines hands-on engineering and technical leadership, with 50% of your time focused on design, troubleshooting, and systems integration and the balance dedicated to project management, vendor oversight, and engineering leadership. You'll play a key role in projects ranging from custom yacht builds to commercial vessel refits, supporting 90-to-180-foot vessels while overseeing power distribution, communications, navigation, and other critical systems. Shipbuilding experience is helpful, but the team is really looking for engineers from other complex electrical environments with strong power distribution experience. With a focus on craftsmanship, this is not a high-volume production environment, allowing engineers to prioritize quality over speed while enjoying a level of work life balance that is increasingly difficult to find. If you enjoy seeing your work come to life, this is a rare opportunity to build something most engineers never have the chance to experience.
Important Note: We’re working closely with Burger Boat Company. To be considered for an interview, please apply directly to this job posting.
