Electrical Design Engineer

Podium Automation is reimagining industrial control panel manufacturing through software-enabled design and automated fabrication. We're building technology to create a new industrial supply chain - reducing lead times for critical electrical equipment from months to days. Backed by top-tier investors including a16z's American Dynamism fund, SV Angel, and Banter Capital, we're growing rapidly and looking for exceptional people to help us scale.

We are seeking a full-time Electrical Design Engineer to work across control panel design, build, and test. You will have the opportunity to work across the end-to-end process in a variety of operations from electrical design to enclosure modification through final testing.

What You’ll Do

• Translate customer design requirements into build-ready UL 508A compliant electrical schematics

• Build out Podium’s component database and standardized symbol library

• Test, implement, and provide feedback on new software tools that help speed up the schematic creation process

• Support our operations in answering technician questions and turning those questions into process improvement sprints

• Support the automation of the panel build process through testing of new methods and tools, and ensuring necessary information is digitized during the design phase.

Who You Are

There are 4 values that all Podium employees are expected to demonstrate (albeit imperfectly):

• Customer Obsession: We sit on the same side of the table as our customers and build things to solve their biggest problems

• High Integrity: We strive to be honest, transparent, and kind. We do the right thing even when it's not the easy or obvious path, and believe that how things get done is just as important as what gets done.

• Have Grit: We pick up the broom and have a bias for action. We enjoy doing things outside of our comfort zone, and we roll up our sleeves and take on those challenges head-on.

• Win and Lose as a Team: We work collaboratively and take primary fulfillment from the team’s success. While we certainly celebrate individual achievements, we ultimately win as a team.

Required for this role

• Must have completed a 4-year degree in Electrical Engineering, Systems Engineering or a related field

• 0-2 years of work experience in electrical engineering with good understanding of electrical fundamentals (AC vs DC voltage, function of overcurrent protection devices, sizing of wiring)

• Familiar with DTM, E3, EPLAN, or AutoCAD Electrical

• Available to work in-person in Brooklyn, NY (in person, 5 days/week)

Nice to have

• Experience working in a UL 508A panel shop or designing industrial control panels

• Mechanically inclined and experience doing light sheet metal modification work and wiring

Additional Information
