We are seeking a hands-on Electrical Engineer to support complex, project-based electrical engineering needs within a high-volume, highly automated industrial facility. This role serves as the primary on-site electrical expert, supporting day‑to‑day technical needs while also driving major capital projects, equipment installations, and continuous improvement initiatives.

What You’ll Do

• Troubleshoot, review, and modify PLC code (primarily Allen‑Bradley; ladder logic required).
• Verify customer electrical requirements, validate safety circuits, and support machine startup and commissioning (FAT/SAT).
• Assess electrical power needs, including transformer/switchgear capacity and system compatibility.
• Interpret, update, and generate electrical schematics and single-line diagrams.
• Collaborate with maintenance, internal design teams, service providers, and equipment suppliers to specify, integrate, and install custom industrial machinery.
• Support capital project execution from concept through installation, testing, and handoff.
• Work with high-voltage and three-phase power systems (training provided for any voltage-specific gaps).

Requirements:

• Associate’s or Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics, or related field OR 10–15+ years of relevant industry experience (PLC Programmer, Automation Technician, Electrician, etc.).
• 5+ years of Electrical Engineering experience in a production environment, machine building, custom equipment, or heavy industrial machinery.
• Strong electrical design experience
• Experience supporting equipment maintenance, capital projects, or system installations.
• Strong background in PLC-controlled systems, automated equipment, and industrial controls.
• Proficiency interpreting and modifying electrical schematics.
• Direct experience reviewing, editing, or troubleshooting PLC code (Allen Bradley preferred).
• Solid understanding of electrical systems, including 3-phase and 480V power, conveyors, automated cells, and complex machinery.

Nice-to-Have Skills

• Ability to write PLC programs from scratch (strongly preferred but not required).
• Understanding of hydraulic systems and electro‑mechanical integration.
• Experience with electrical system design from concept through build.
• CAPEX exposure—budgets, timelines, customer/supplier communication, and technical documentation.
