Electrical System Engineer
Electrical Systems Engineer – Power Systems Design (Hands-On)Ohio $80,000 – $140,000 + BenefitsWe’re working with a global leader in critical power infrastructure to appoint an Electrical Systems Engineer with a strong power engineering background and a passion for hands-on system design.This is not a purely theoretical role, this is about owning real, high power electrical systems from concept through to validation in a live test environment.The RoleYou’ll take ownership of the design and development of 3-phase power distribution and switching systems, playing a key role in delivering robust, high-performance products used in mission-critical environments.You’ll be deeply involved across the full lifecycle—architecture, design, protection, controls integration, and physical testing.Key ResponsibilitiesLead end-to-end electrical system design for 3-phase power products Develop power distribution architectures, including layouts and cable sizing Specify and coordinate circuit breakers and protection schemes Design and integrate control and monitoring systems (digital & analogue) Get hands-on in the test lab, validating thermal performance, EMI, and fault conditions Ensure compliance with UL, IEC, NEC and other relevant standards Produce detailed schematics, specifications, and technical reports Collaborate with mechanical, firmware, and manufacturing teams to deliver complete systems What We’re Looking For3+ years’ experience in electrical engineering, ideally within power systems or power distribution Strong knowledge of 3-phase power systems and electrical infrastructure Proven experience in system-level design (not just components) Understanding of protection, breaker coordination and system reliability Comfortable being hands-on in a lab/test environment Familiarity with UL, IEC, NEC standards Degree in Electrical Engineering (or similar) Why Apply?Genuine end-to-end ownership of electrical systems Strong mix of design + hands-on validation work Opportunity to work on high-impact, mission critical power technology
