Responsibilities:

• Collaborate with the Management and Engineering teams to create requirements for any new factory automation system or for new modifications to an existing system.
• Design and schematically capture all electrical circuits of a new factory automation system or a modification to an existing factory automation system.
• Use Broadridge approved CAD tools to design all electrical subsystems including panels, enclosures and cabling. Use those CAD tools to produce complete assembly documentation for the new subsystems.
• Where necessary, select PLC components per Broadridge standards and integrate these PLC components into new electrical subsystems.
• In cooperation with the software development team, participate in the programming of PLC components.  This programming may include foundational functions of the PLC system as well as diagnostics.
• Take all reasonable measures to ensure maximum safety, reliability, and cost-effectiveness of a new electrical design.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including mechanical engineers, software engineers, project managers, and production staff in the troubleshooting and debugging of a newly assembled system.
• Support and advise the Technician team during assembly of a new system.
