Build reliable automation that powers production
Join a team that values makers, fixers, and finishers — engineers who turn requirements into safe, reliable, and well-documented systems. Your mission: elevate product performance and manufacturing efficiency through smart electrical design and robust controls.
Where and when you will work
- Schedule: Monday–Friday, 6:00 AM–2:30 PM (Saturday as needed)
- Setting: Manufacturing / Production Floor
- Education: Bachelor's Degree in Engineering (required)
About the work
- Engineer electrical solutions for PLC-controlled machinery — design through sustainment.
- Author, interpret, and update electrical schematics and technical drawings.
- Diagnose failures at the component and system level; implement corrective actions decisively.
- Drive automation and controls improvements that enhance throughput, quality, and safety.
- Own BOM accuracy and structure; ensure product data integrity.
- Create and maintain PWOs, WIs, inspection records, and engineering documentation.
- Turn customer requirements into detailed electrical, product, and manufacturing specifications.
- Select components and capture specifications, dimensions, materials, and identifying data.
- Develop and revise CAD/SolidWorks models, prints, and assemblies.
- Prototype, test, and validate designs; record and share test results.
- Support inspections and lead root-cause and corrective-action investigations.
- Recommend improvements to products, processes, and electrical/controls architecture.
- Partner with production to resolve on-line manufacturing issues.
- Inspect electrical systems and installations during builds and production.
- Keep engineering records, test reports, QA documentation, and product files current.
- Coach and train production and team members on new processes and equipment.
- Collaborate with customers, suppliers, contractors, production staff, and management; provide updates in project meetings.
What success looks like in your first 90 days
- Own a production cell's controls documentation (BOMs, WIs, schematics) with zero gaps.
- Close out at least one root-cause investigation with measurable corrective action.
- Deliver a small automation improvement that reduces downtime or cycle time.
Qualifications
- Bachelor's degree in Engineering.
- Manufacturing background with strong familiarity with production operations.
- PLC/controls expertise with hands-on troubleshooting of control and electrical issues.
- Demonstrated, hands-on troubleshooting across equipment, electrical, controls, product, and process.
- Experience with BOMs and controlled manufacturing documents (work instructions, routings/work orders, drawings, specifications).
- CAD proficiency; SolidWorks and/or AutoCAD preferred.
Preferred background
ISO 9001, Lean Six Sigma, DOE, OSHA/EPA knowledge, advanced SolidWorks, formal root-cause methods, and strong customer-facing communication experience are beneficial but not strictly required.
Tools and domains you will touch
- Bachelor's Degree
- Industrial and Manufacturing Engineering
- CAD Software
- ISO 9001 Certification Experience
- Automotive Manufacturing Systems
- BOM
- SolidWorks
If you are energized by solving problems at the source, collaborating across functions, and documenting solutions others can build on, you will thrive here.
