About The Position

ITW Electronics Assembly Equipment (EAE) Division is looking for an Electrical Engineer III to research, sustain, and design electrical control systems for Wave Solder and Cleaning equipment. This role involves meeting engineering standards, applicable codes, and customer specifications. The engineer will be responsible for the full lifecycle of electrical design, from concept to product launch, including analysis, component selection, testing, and documentation. This position also requires providing electrical engineering support and troubleshooting to various internal teams and external customers, collaborating with other engineering disciplines, and assisting with quotations and cost estimates. The role involves planning and executing technical projects, resolving complex technical problems, and providing guidance to junior engineers. Hands-on activities for product development and testing may also be required. The engineer will work independently with minimal supervision and may lead small engineering projects, demonstrating expertise in at least one machine platform.

Requirements

B.S. degree in Electrical Engineering
5-7 years of related electrical engineering experience
