The Senior Electrical and Controls Engineer provides Electrical Controls Engineering for the implementation of Capital Projects for JM's Insulation Systems (IS) Manufacturing Operations. The position will have a wide range of roles including being an internal consultant on electrical systems to a hands-on project manager or leader in implementing electrical control projects. This role will be responsible for developing, scoping, coordinating, justifying, implementing, and managing from start to finish a broad range of industrial electrical and control system manufacturing projects, including scope documents, engineering calculations and designs, specifications, cost estimates, schedules, project justifications, and project training and documentation for Johns Manville manufacturing facilities in North America.

The candidate must be located in Littleton, CO or near one of our IS plant locations—ideally McPherson, KS; Defiance, OH; Phenix City, AL; Winder, GA; or Willows, CA. Proximity to an IS plant is essential to support on-site collaboration and operational needs. When not traveling, this role will follow a hybrid work schedule.

This position requires regular travel to manufacturing facilities across the United States, estimated at 40-60% of the time. Travel will support project implementations and less frequently plant operations. Candidates must be willing and able to travel frequently, with typical travel being weekdays only.
