Job description

  • Work on custom customer opportunities (e.g., data centers, energy storage, emerging technologies) where you’ll develop custom electrical enclosure solutions-not just quote standard products.
  • Partner directly with Business Development Managers and Sales to tackle technical challenges and help win strategic deals across the Systems Protection portfolio.
  • Own the technical side of the quoting process-reviewing customer specs, creating electrical designs, and building tailored solutions that meet performance, code, and application requirements.
  • Design electrical and mechanical systems including one-line diagrams, interconnects, wire sizing, and equipment selection for customized enclosure solutions.
  • Collaborate with outside sales, plant engineers, design teams, and manufacturing sites to translate concepts into manufacturable, compliant solutions.
  • Play a critical role in balancing speed, accuracy, and cost-ensuring quotes are delivered on time while designing solutions that are technically sound, financially competitive, and aligned with customer and business needs.
  • Review and validate designs (yours and others’) for code compliance, quality, and alignment with customer specifications.
  • Contribute to continuous improvement of quoting, design, and sales support processes within a highly visible, senior-level team (QRF - Quote Reaction Force).

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering (or related field) preferred. Relevant experience considered.
  • Experience designing electrical systems (e.g., one-line diagrams, wiring, equipment sizing) in commercial or industrial applications.
  • Experience interpreting customer specifications, codes, and standards (NEC or similar) and applying them to real-world designs.
  • Ability to work in a fast-paced, ambiguous environment where solutions are often custom-not predefined.
  • Strong communicator who actively engages in meetings with sales, manufacturing, and customers-translating technical concepts, sharing perspectives, and influencing decisions.
  • Experience reviewing technical designs or supporting others on specifications, code compliance, and industry standards.
  • Strong communication skills, both written and verbal, with the ability to bridge technical engineering concepts to business and customer needs, adapting your approach for both technical and non-technical audiences.
  • Experience with AutoCAD required, experience with Oracle preferred.
