• Troubleshoot and improve systems using real-world feedback
• Collaborate with mechanical, controls, robotics, and manufacturing teams

What We're Looking For

• 2-6+ years designing electrical systems for industrial automation or machinery
• Experience with SOLIDWORKS Electrical or similar ECAD tools
• Strong understanding of industrial power distribution & wiring standards
• PLC hardware and controls experience
