Job Details

As an Electrical Engineer you will play a key role in conceptualizing, designing, and optimizing the electrical scope within client s modular components and systems. You will collaborate closely with cross-functional teams, including engineers, project managers, and production staff, to ensure the seamless integration of modular solutions into our manufacturing operations. You will work closely with our design and engineering teams to review and analyze customer requirements, specifications, modular construction plans, manufacturing constraints, ensuring they meet industry standards, regulatory requirements, and internal specifications. Your expertise will contribute to the seamless execution of projects, driving efficiency, and excellence in our modular construction processes. Design outputs are communicated through 3D/CAD drawings for the purchase of incorporated components and manufacture of clients products.

KEY JOB RESPONSIBILITIES:

  • Design and develop innovative modular components and systems for manufacturing processes, considering factors such as functionality, efficiency, scalability, and sustainability.
  • Responsible for the design of the whole electrical system including: one-line diagram, point-to-point schematic, and compiling bill of materials for all the electrical systems and components.
  • Work closely with the Design team who will utilize CAD software (e.g., SolidWorks, Revit, AutoCAD) to create detailed 3D models and technical drawings of modular components, ensuring accuracy and manufacturability.
  • Assist sales and application engineering team to design and fine tune the electrical system to meet customer needs.
  • Responsible for sizing, selection, and purchase assistance: switch-gear, starter and MCCs, conduit and conductors, transformers, motor operated equipment (pumps, compressors), and control systems.
  • Generate comprehensive documentation, including design specifications, bill of materials (BOM), and assembly instructions, to support the manufacturing and assembly of modular components.
  • Provide technical support and expertise to production teams during the manufacturing, assembly, and installation of modular components, resolving design-related issues as needed.
  • Responsible for qualifying and selecting third party vendors.
  • Review customer specifications and make recommendations for proposals.
  • Interface with cross-functional teams: Project Engineers, Project Managers, Mechanical and Controls Engineers, and with Service Engineers and Technicians.
  • Assists Production Department in resolving issues during fabrication & assembly.
  • Establishes QA and QC requirements for production and may perform QC checks or oversee same.
  • Compiles all electrical O&M information, transmits critical O&M information during the design phase of the project.
  • Assists in compilation of the final sets of IOM manuals.
  • Any other responsibility as assigned by client

JOB SKILLS:

  • Ability to design and draft on AutoCAD 2000.Working knowledge of Solid works and Revit is preferred.

Strong knowledge of manufacturing processes, materials, and assembly techniques, with a focus on modular construction methods.
