About The Position
As an S&C Electric team member, you’ll work on projects that have real-world impact. You’ll help transform the grid for resilient and reliable power worldwide. S&C has more than a 100-year history of innovation and has been 100% employee-owned since 2012. We continue this legacy as a trusted, forward-thinking leader in the electrical industry. You will advance a safer, more reliable, and more resilient electrical grid. Our products help the grid adapt to severe weather and transition to clean energy. We’re big enough to be a respected industry leader but small enough for you to impact our company directly. Our commitment gives you opportunities to impact on and off the job positively. Join S&C to make an impact on tomorrow’s energy challenges and become an employee-owner! The Technology & Breakthrough Innovation (TBI) group located in Chicago, IL, Alameda, CA, and Franklin, WI is responsible for driving the major innovations to support S&C’s global growth. TBI includes six functional teams covering the spectrum of S&C’s technology and application needs, with an emphasis on multidisciplinary, breakthrough concept development. TBI team also continues to advance the adoption of new and innovative technology into S&C’s new product portfolio. In this position, you will report to the Senior Manager - Electronics Hardware.
