Design and application of electrical power distribution products, low-voltage switchgear, LVMCCs, control panels, or related power delivery systems in an EPC, engineering, manufacturing, utility, or industrial environment.
Electrical and 2D layout tools such as EPLAN, AutoCAD, or Visio, plus Microsoft Office and product configuration or pricing applications.
Protection and control schemes, electrical schematics, communication network diagrams, RVSS, variable frequency drives, switching starters, intelligent devices, and LVMCC auxiliary equipment.
Interpreting customer technical documentation and selecting solutions that meet customer, schedule, cost, quality, and profitability requirements.
Cross-functional collaboration, technical communication, leadership, decision-making, customer service, and prioritization of multiple simultaneous tasks; working knowledge of business planning and project and product lifecycle processes.
Ability to travel less than 10%.
Legally authorized to work in the United States on a continual and permanent basis without company sponsorship.

Nice To Haves

Experience creating, converting, and modifying electrical drawings in AutoCAD Electrical or Engineering Base.
Experience with Engineering Base software.
Knowledge of ANSI, IEEE, UL, and NEMA standards for low-voltage switchgear and LVMCC equipment.
Experience with electrical design for low-voltage switchgear systems and LVMCCs.
Experience with Siemens switchgear and electrical products.

Responsibilities

Lead the engineering design and development of low-voltage switchgear and LVMCC solutions in accordance with customer specifications, project requirements, applicable standards, and engineering guidelines.
Analyze customer specifications, single-line diagrams, datasheets, and contractual documents to define scope, technical requirements, engineering deliverables, and cost-effective solutions.
Develop schematics, wiring diagrams, bills of material, system architecture, component selections, panel arrangements, communication drawings, three-line diagrams, general arrangement drawings, and manufacturing documentation using electrical and 2D design tools.
Perform electrical engineering calculations and studies, including fault current analysis, busbar sizing, load assessment, voltage drop evaluation, equipment rating verification, and protection coordination.
Define protection and control schemes, relay logic, interlocks, and LVMCC applications involving RVSS, variable frequency drives, switching starters, intelligent devices, and auxiliary equipment.
Collaborate with proposal, application engineering, project management, procurement, manufacturing, testing, commissioning, and customers to support bid reviews, design reviews, technical clarifications, issue resolution, and corrective actions.
Ensure deliverable quality and compliance with NEMA, ANSI, IEEE, UL, NEC, IEC, and customer requirements; prepare closeout documentation, mentor engineering partners, and advance standardization and continuous improvement.
