In this role, you will support custom engineered-to-order (ETO) bioprocess and automated industrial equipment projects from early design phases through manufacturing, system integration, and Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT). You will work closely with cross-functional teams to deliver manufacturing-ready design packages and provide hands-on engineering support on the shop floor.

Primary Job Function:

Design & Documentation:

Develop and modify electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, panel layouts, power distribution systems, and Bills of Materials (BOMs) based on customer specifications and project requirements.

Component Selection:

Specify industrial electrical components, instrumentation, safety devices, and control hardware compliant with internal standards and regulatory requirements.

Manufacturing Support:

Provide real-time engineering support to Manufacturing during equipment assembly and wiring; troubleshoot electrical design, power, and control issues on the floor.

Design Reviews & ECOs:

Lead and participate in technical design reviews, resolve action items, and process controlled engineering changes and drawing revisions within a PLM environment.

Integration & FAT:

Support system integration, commissioning, and Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) execution alongside Controls and Quality teams.

As-Built Releases:

Complete and release final "as-built" electrical documentation packages post-testing. Work Experience Demonstrated ability to create clear electrical schematics, control panel layouts, and BOMs using industrial standard CAD platforms (e.g., AutoCAD Electrical, EPLAN). Strong working knowledge of industrial control panels, 3-phase power distribution, low-voltage control circuits, and field instrumentation. Hands-on experience troubleshooting industrial electrical systems during equipment assembly and testing. Experience working within formal PLM/PDM environments and controlled Engineering Change Order (ECO) workflows.

Soft Skills:

Excellent cross-functional communication skills; ability to collaborate effectively with Mechanical, Controls, Manufacturing, Quality, and Project Management teams.

Qualifications/Experience/Education Requirements Basic Qualifications:

Education:

B.S. in Electrical Engineering (BSEE) or equivalent professional experience.

Experience:

3-7 years of experience in electrical design for industrial automation, custom machinery, process equipment, or engineered-to-order (ETO) systems.

Preferred Qualifications:

Prior experience with biopharmaceutical process equipment, single-use systems (SUS), or process skid design. Familiarity with regulated manufacturing environments and industrial panel standards (e.g., UL 508A, NFPA 79, CE/IEC).
