Electrical Engineer
This role provides practical electrical engineering support to a multidisciplinary team (primarily mechanical engineers) in a collaborative, hands-on environment. The engineer helps integrate electrical considerations into product design and development, evaluates requirements, supports design and testing, and troubleshoots issues to build technical expertise. Key Responsibilities Provide electrical input during design discussions, reviews, and troubleshooting; collaborate with mechanical engineers to integrate electrical components into electromechanical assemblies. Assist in reviewing customer requirements for electrical feasibility, identifying challenges, and supporting early-stage design/quoting. Support development of electrical systems (circuits, PCBs, wiring, test fixtures) using fundamentals like signal integrity, grounding, shielding, and power distribution; help adapt existing products to new needs. Assist in creating and executing test procedures (e.g., Factory Acceptance Test, Design Validation Test); support testing, troubleshooting with measurement tools (oscilloscopes, multimeters), and preparing documentation (schematics, BOMs, reports). Contribute to troubleshooting, root-cause analysis, corrective actions, and continuous improvement of designs, reliability, and processes. Collaborate cross-functionally with manufacturing, quality, and other teams to support builds, installation, validation, and process enhancements. Required Qualifications Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or related field. 3–5 years of experience in electrical design, product development, or similar roles. Understanding of analog/digital circuits, power systems, serial communications (RS-232/422/485, Ethernet), signal integrity, grounding/shielding, and power distribution. Hands-on experience with electrical test equipment (oscilloscopes, multimeters) and interpreting schematics/wiring diagrams. Experience supporting product testing, verification, or validation. Strong problem-solving and teamwork skills in multidisciplinary settings. Preferred Qualifications Experience with electromechanical systems. Exposure to fiber optic systems or high-speed communications. Background in aerospace, defense, industrial, or medical device environments. Experience with custom or low-volume engineered products.
