Senior Electrical Engineer

Job Summary Hands‑on Electrical Engineer responsible for designing electrical and control panels used in liquid cooling system products with both high and low voltages. This person will work with a small team of mechanical, refrigeration, and manufacturing engineers to bring the new product through its full product development process—from early concept to production support. Responsibilities include electrical component selection, schematic and wire‑run list creation, designing control solutions (functional control logic and PID control loops for temperature, flow, and pressure), and PCBA/PLC control firmware. The engineer may develop the firmware directly or collaborate with a separate software engineer. The role also involves testing, debugging, and ensuring that the product’s electrical hardware and firmware meet functional and performance requirements while staying on schedule and on budget. Key Responsibilities Control System Design & Integration: Develop control system architectures, design and implement control algorithms to dynamically adjust cooling capacity based on real‑time data (e.g., temperature, humidity, load), integrate sensors, controllers, and actuators to monitor and control cooling systems, and create and update electrical schematics and control diagrams for cooling systems. Programming & Commissioning: Program and configure controllers and develop HMI interfaces tailored to system cooling operations; commission, test, and validate control systems, ensuring smooth startup and reliable performance; troubleshoot and resolve control system issues. Collaboration & Project Management: Work closely with cross‑functional teams to ensure cooling solutions meet performance requirements, participate in design reviews, provide technical insights on cooling control challenges, and assist in planning, scheduling, and budgeting for data center cooling projects and retrofits. Documentation: Develop and maintain comprehensive documentation for control system designs and programming changes, provide ongoing support and troubleshooting for production cooling systems, and develop and execute verification test plans. Compliance & Safety: Ensure that all cooling control systems comply with relevant industry standards and safety regulations (e.g., UL/CE guidelines). Qualifications Education: Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Electro‑Mechanical Engineering, Control Systems Engineering, or a related field. Advanced degrees or certifications (e.g., HVAC, refrigeration) are a plus. Experience: 5+ years of experience in designing, programming, and maintaining control systems; 3+ years of hands‑on experience with PLC programming, HMI development, and integration of sensor networks; working experience with communication protocols, including RS‑232, RS‑485, Ethernet, SNMP, REST API, and others. Skills & Competencies: Strong understanding of control systems, automation, and cooling fundamentals (thermal management, airflow, and load balancing). Proficient in creating and interpreting electrical schematics and control logic diagrams. Excellent analytical, troubleshooting, and problem‑solving skills. Effective communication skills and ability to collaborate across multidisciplinary teams. Working knowledge of engineering tools: PLM software, MRP software (Oracle Cloud a plus), and proficiency with mixed‑signal oscilloscopes, DVMs, and related instrumentation. Base Compensation: 125K‑160K, bonus eligible. EEO Statement We are committed to ensuring equal employment opportunities for all job applicants and employees.
