About The Position

We are looking for a Senior Design Engineer to support our Primex brand. This role will work out of our Plymouth, MN location. Our Primex brand is a leading provider of control solutions for the municipal and wastewater industries, offering pump control panels, full-featured web-hosted SCADA solutions, and highly complex system integration projects. As our Senior Design Engineer, you will design custom electrical control panels and systems for water and wastewater applications and help guide projects from initial design through manufacturing and delivery. You will review project plans, specifications, proposals, and scopes of work to develop solutions that meet customer and project requirements.
