What You'll Do

• Design and implement scalable electrical and controls systems for advanced automated equipment and robotic welding cells using SOLIDWORKS Electrical.
• Produce and maintain schematics, panel layouts, I/O lists, cable schedules, and BOMs to enable consistent builds and faster deployment.
• Experiment with, test, and validate new electrical components, controls hardware, and system approaches to improve performance, reliability, manufacturability, and safety.
• Develop, test, and debug PLC software across multiple platforms (e.g., Allen-Bradley / Studio 5000 and Delta PLCs / CODESYS).
• Program and commission VFDs, servos, and motion systems, balancing performance, robustness, and ease of commissioning.
• Integrate and validate third-party electrical components and subsystems, including safety-rated devices (e-stops, light curtains, safety relays, scanners).
• Contribute to machine safety design and risk assessments, supporting compliance with applicable standards while maintaining usability and throughput.
• Partner with supply chain and manufacturing to optimize BOM cost, availability, standardization, and safety compliance.
• Support systems through build, FAT, installation, and commissioning, resolving field issues, and improving future deployments.
• Feed lessons learned back into design improvements, documentation, tools, and standards.
• Collaborate in cross-disciplinary design reviews to align electrical, mechanical, safety, and product decisions.

Who You Are

• 2–6+ years of experience designing and deploying industrial electrical and controls systems.
• Hands-on experience developing PLC software in Studio 5000 / Logix Designer and/or CODESYS-based environments.
• Experience working with PLC hardware from multiple vendors (e.g., Allen-Bradley, Delta).
• Proficient with SOLIDWORKS Electrical and producing clean, build-ready documentation.
• Experience with machine safety systems, including safety PLCs, safety I/O, and risk assessment processes.
• Familiar with robotic automation systems, ideally Yaskawa robots and welding equipment (Miller or similar).
• Thinks in terms of scalable, repeatable designs that improve deployment efficiency, safety, and long-term support.
• Comfortable testing, validating, and iterating on components and system designs using real-world feedback.
• Understands BOM cost, availability, standardization, and safety implications, and collaborates effectively with supply chain partners.
• Comfortable navigating ambiguity, asking good questions, and making thoughtful engineering decisions as information evolves.
• Communicates clearly, works well across disciplines, and values shared ownership and outcomes.
• Curious and motivated to continuously improve system performance, safety, cost, and deployability.
