Electrical Engineer

We are seeking a hands-on Electrical Engineer with a strong background in controls, embedded software, and PCB hardware design. This role emphasizes troubleshooting, sustaining, and improving existing systems, with a focus on rotating equipment and electromechanical drive systems. The ideal candidate also includes low-level programming skills (e.g., firmware, assembly language) with solid mechanical aptitude and the ability to use CAD tools to support cross-disciplinary problem-solving.

We offer many company benefits:

• 10 paid holidays and PTO starting at two weeks per year
• 401K Plan - 3% employer contribution, and matching based on your contribution thereafter: immediate full vesting
• Two medical plans: a PPO and an HDHP with an HSA
• Dental/Vision coverage
• Pet Insurance
• Company-paid Employee Assistant Program (EAP)
• Two weeks of paid Parental Leave
• Company-Paid Life Insurance & AD&D, Short-Term Disability and Long-Term Disability
• Additional Voluntary Life Insurance & AD&D

What You'll Do:

• Provide technical support and troubleshooting for existing electrical, control, and drive systems in the field and in-house
• Diagnose and resolve issues with PCBs, embedded controllers, sensors, and power electronics
• Perform firmware maintenance, debugging, and low-level code updates
• Collaborate with mechanical engineers on rotating equipment performance, integration, and failure analysis
• Perform root cause analysis of field and production issues; recommend design or process improvements
• Perform PCB redesigns, modifications, and sustaining engineering tasks for legacy products
• Generate and maintain accurate documentation, including schematics, BOMs, test procedures, and engineering change orders
• Provide training, guidance, and technical assistance to internal teams, field technicians, and customers
• Use CAD tools (electrical and/or mechanical) to review and update drawings, layouts, and system models
• Coordinate with suppliers and vendors on component obsolescence, replacements, and quality issues

What We're Looking For:

• Proficiency in low-level programming (assembly, microcontrollers, or DSPs)
• Experience with PCB hardware design and troubleshooting (schematics, layout, test, rework)
• Familiarity with rotating equipment (motors, drives, clutches, pumps, or similar)
• Working knowledge of CAD tools (e.g., AutoCAD, SolidWorks).
• Hands-on experience with oscilloscopes, analyzers, and diagnostic instrumentation.
• Knowledge of industrial communication protocols (Ethernet, Modbus, RS-485, SPI)
• Experience with PLC programming or higher-level embedded development.
• Familiarity with thermal management, vibration analysis, and reliability testing in rotating systems.
• Exposure to product lifecycle management (PLM) and ERP systems.

EDUCATION AND/OR EXPERIENCE:

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering (preferred) or Technical degree or related field (or equivalent technical training/experience).
• 3 years minimum related experience in controls engineering, with exposure to support/sustaining roles.
• Experience with ERP software similar to Epicor or SAP.

ADDITIONAL QUALIFICATIONS:

• Strong mechanical aptitude and ability to interpret mechanical drawings.
• Ability to travel occasionally to support field service teams or customer sites.
• Excellent problem-solving and communication skills; able to explain technical issues to non-specialists.

To perform this job successfully, an individual must be able to perform each essential duty satisfactorily.
