  • Turn customer specifications into electrical designs, drawings and machine programs
  • Program PLCs and HMIs in Allen-Bradley Studio 5000
  • Build and manage the project BOM in PLM so purchasing demand is accurate

  • Work with the mechanical and operations teams on machine startup and site acceptance at customer sites
  • Work with our engineering headquarters in France to share designs, standards and best practices

What You Bring

  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering
  • 0-2 years in machine controls design. Co-op and internship experience counts
  • PLC and HMI programming experience with Allen-Bradley (Rockwell Studio 5000)
  • Able to read and create electrical schematics and panel layouts in CAD ( EPLAN P8 preferred )
  • Working knowledge of NEC, NFPA and ANSI standards, plus a basic understanding of pneumatics and hydraulics
  • Strong organization, prioritization and communication skills, with fluency in English
  • Proficient in Microsoft Office

➕ Nice to Have

  • Hands-on Allen-Bradley ControlLogix / CompactLogix experience
  • Experience with QAD or SmarTeam
  • French language skills

✈️ Travel and Work Environment

  • Office and climate-controlled shop floor
  • Domestic and international travel , including overnight trips, for customer startups and training
  • Able to lift up to 35 lbs and to bend, kneel and reach on the shop floor

Why Serac

  • Own the full electrical design of a machine early in your career
  • See your work run on the shop floor and at customer sites
  • Work with a global engineering team based in France

Serac is unable to sponsor work visas for this position.
