Electrical Engineer

Job Title: Senior Electrical Engineer (Temporary – Up to 12 Months)

Location: McGregor Site Boise, ID
Employment Type: Temporary, Full-Time
Duration: Up to 12 Months
Department: Engineering / Product Development

Position Overview

We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced Senior Electrical Engineer for a temporary assignment of up to 12 months. This role will support critical automation and production-line development efforts, including electrical design, controls integration, and commissioning across workstreams such as automation EDA, robot/line systems, RFID/QR, safety systems, and test/queue stations. The ideal candidate brings strong electrical engineering fundamentals, hands‑on implementation experience, and the ability to lead cross‑functional execution from concept through build, debug, and handoff.

Key Responsibilities

• Design and release control panels and machine wiring, including power distribution, grounding/shielding, and cable/harness routing.
• Integrate electrical systems for automation cells and production‑line stations (e.g., internal/external inventory storage, flow, wash station, and RSP station).
• Partner with controls/software, mechanical, manufacturing, and safety stakeholders to define requirements and deliver integrated solutions.
• Help develop and mentor junior engineers by providing technical guidance, design reviews, and hands‑on support during build, debug, and commissioning.
• Work with Sr Automation Engineer to design and integrate Robot Main systems, including interconnects, sensors, actuators, end‑of‑arm tooling electrical interfaces, and field devices.
• Implement and validate safety systems (risk reduction measures, safety circuits, E‑stops, interlocks, safety PLC/relays) and support compliance documentation.
• Develop and integrate RFID/QR hardware (readers, antennas, cabling, power) and coordinate data handoff to controls/software.
• Support plant layout execution by defining electrical utility needs (power, network, air, and service drops) and coordinating installation constraints.
• Plan and execute bring‑up, commissioning, and debug for line stations, including production line test queue and system‑level testing.
• Create and maintain engineering documentation (as‑built packages, redlines, test reports, and standard work) and drive issue resolution through closure.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Electrical & Computer Engineering, or related field.
• Minimum 7 years of experience delivering electrical design and integration for automation equipment or production lines.
• Proficiency with electrical design tools (e.g., AutoCAD Electrical, EPLAN, or similar) including drawing standards and revision control.
• Experience with industrial control panels, field wiring, sensors/actuators, and power distribution (AC/DC) best practices.
• Working knowledge of industrial networks and interfaces (e.g., Ethernet/IP, Profinet, IO-Link, serial as applicable) and basic instrumentation.
• Demonstrated ability to plan and execute commissioning/debug in a fast‑paced build environment, managing priorities and risks.
• Strong problem‑solving skills, attention to detail, and clear technical communication.

Preferred Skills

• Experience with machine safety standards and implementation (e.g., ISO 13849 / IEC 62061 concepts) and safety PLCs/relays.
• Robot cell integration experience (FANUC/ABB/KUKA/Yaskawa or similar), including electrical interfaces to EOAT and peripherals.
• RFID/QR system integration experience (hardware selection, placement, interference considerations, and commissioning).
• Experience supporting factory/plant electrical integration (utility planning, panel installation, cable management, and as‑built turnover).
• Test planning mindset: ability to create validation plans, execute experiments, and document learnings into repeatable best practices.
• Familiarity with NEC/NFPA 70 and NFPA 79 (or equivalent) and general industrial electrical compliance practices.
• Project leadership experience coordinating cross‑functional deliverables across multiple parallel workstreams.
• Demonstrated ability to mentor junior engineers/technicians and raise team capability through coaching, standard work, and knowledge sharing.

Benefits

• Competitive compensation
• Flexible work schedule
• Opportunity to work on cutting‑edge projects
• Collaborative and innovative work environment
