Wiring Lead

Description Wiring Lead Spike Electric Pasadena, TX The Manufacturing Wiring Lead must have strong communication skills to effectively coordinate switchgear/control wiring work across the shop floor. This includes: Lead wiring build activities for control panels and associated assemblies (terminals, relays, terminal blocks, meters/IO, control devices, etc.). Read and interpret: schematics & wiring diagrams panel layouts / one-lines BOMs and cable/harness lists work instructions, travelers, and label/routing standards Ensure correct: wire sizing, terminal selection, pinouts wire dress, routing, separation of power/control where required labeling/identification (wire markers, terminal IDs, harness tags) termination quality (crimp technique, torque/spec adherence) strain relief, bundling, and installation neatness (5S expectations) Verify harnesses and control wiring prior to panel closure to prevent rework. Quality Checks & Documentation Perform or oversee in-process inspections (as assigned) to ensure workmanship meets internal quality standards (and any IPC/industry specs if applicable). Identify defects (mis-wire, incorrect termination, missing labels, incorrect routing) and drive corrective actions: rework containment documentation updates feedback loop to improve the process Maintain accurate documentation and traceability (travelers, inspection records, test logs where required). Troubleshooting & Support Troubleshoot wiring errors using diagrams, continuity verification, and panel documentation. Support debug/rework activities efficiently while maintaining quality and safety. Team Leadership (Day Shift) Assign tasks, balance workload across workbenches/cells, and track production progress vs. schedule. Train and mentor assemblers on switchgear wiring practices, labeling, and documentation use. Run shift handoffs and communication: priorities material shortages/shortages risk recurring defects engineering/process updates Materials & Flow Support Coordinate kitting/staging needs: confirm correct parts/harnesses ensure labels/materials are available Flag material issues early to reduce downtime. Requirements 2+ years’ experience in electro-mechanical manufacturing, specifically: control wiring switchgear/control panels wiring harness or cable assembly Strong ability to read wiring diagrams/schematics and follow work instructions. Proficiency with common wiring/harness tools, such as: crimpers/crimp tooling wire strippers/cutting tools terminal block tools continuity/multimeter (or equivalent) for basic verification Demonstrated ability to maintain quality and reduce rework. Preferred Qualifications Experience assembling switchgear/control cabinets (e.g., industrial power distribution, MCC/SCADA interface wiring, motor control panels, protective relays/IO). Familiarity with quality standards such as IPC or internal workmanship criteria. Experience leading others (even informally) or acting as a go-to wiring resource. Experience with ECO/engineering change updates and documentation control. Skills You’ll Use Daily Control panel wiring & termination discipline Wiring harness builds accuracy (pinouts/labels/routing) Diagram interpretation + traveler/work instruction compliance In-process verification and defect identification Coaching/leading a small team Work Conditions / Physical Requirements Ability to stand and work at a bench for extended periods. #J-18808-Ljbffr Spike Electric and Controls LLC
