Responsibilities
Leading the end-to-end engineering package development for Protection & Automation panels (UL508A subset), translating customer PDFs/schematics into complete, error-resistant manufacturing deliverables (BOMs, drawings, wiring documentation, routings/work instructions) that enable right-first-time builds
Establishing and scaling 3D digital twin standards for panel mechanical/electrical integration, ensuring designs are manufacturable, serviceable, and consistent across projects while supporting faster change incorporation and lessons learned
Enabling wire-length automation outputs (cut lists, routing assumptions, harness/wire documentation, and data outputs to downstream tools/processes) to reduce shop-floor ambiguity, improve labor predictability, and increase throughput
Owning part library governance (attributes, approved alternates, footprints/models, naming conventions, revision control, and obsolescence/standardization strategy) to improve design reuse, cost control, and supply-chain resilience
Building best-in-class engineering processes and training, including onboarding paths, design reviews, standard work, checklists, and continuous improvement loops with manufacturing and quality to prevent recurrence of defects
Developing and coaching a high-performing team (prioritization, workload management, technical mentorship, cross-functional escalation) while maintaining hands-on technical credibility and driving a culture of knowledge sharing and continuous improvement
Qualification
Required
Bachelor's degree in Engineering (Mechanical, Electrical, or related) or equivalent practical experience
5+ years in panel/equipment engineering or a closely related manufacturing engineering environment, with demonstrated ownership of design deliverables used in production
2+ years of people leadership (or strong team-lead experience) with ability to coach, develop, and scale engineering capability
Experience converting customer documentation (PDFs/schematics/one-lines) into manufacturing-ready engineering packages (drawings, BOMs, wiring documentation, and shop deliverables)
Proficiency with CAD tools (2D and/or 3D) and disciplined document control practices; comfortable driving standardization and reuse
Siemens NX and TC experience for digital twin approach
Working knowledge of BOM structures and ERP/MRP processes (SAP or similar) to ensure accurate material definitions and change control
Preferred
Familiarity with UL508A (subset) requirements as applied to industrial control/panel builds (documentation rigor, labeling, component selection discipline)
Experience implementing or governing libraries/standards (parts, CAD models, templates, naming conventions, revisioning) in a high-mix engineered-to-order environment
Demonstrated success driving engineering-to-manufacturing process transformation (standard work, checklists, design reviews, training systems, continuous improvement cadence)
Exposure to digital twin / model-based practices and creating structured data outputs that downstream production teams can reliably execute (e.g., wire cut lists, routing outputs, or work-instruction automation)
