  • Lead the end-to-end development of advanced machinery-designing, programming, assembling, and testing systems to optimize production efficiency, plant flow, and safety protocols.
  • Create and update detailed electrical design documentation, including schematics, panel layouts, cable routing diagrams, and parts lists using SolidWorks Electrical or comparable software.
  • Conduct technical assessments such as power load evaluations and ensure all designs comply with standards like NFPA 70, UL, IEC, and other relevant codes.
  • Diagnose complex electrical and signal-related issues using advanced instrumentation (oscilloscopes, multimeters, analyzers) and capture findings in detailed reports for future reference.
  • Support capital equipment initiatives by coordinating with external suppliers, drafting functional specifications, and assisting in the review of equipment qualifications.
  • Generate and maintain technical documentation such as SOPs, safety guidelines, test protocols, validation reports, and engineering standards.
  • Develop schedules, budgets, and detailed project outlines for engineering activities while ensuring transparent updates on key milestones.
  • Investigate root causes of automation faults and implement robust corrective actions to enhance long-term system reliability.
  • Support ad-hoc assignments and contribute to cross-functional R&D initiatives as directed by the team leader.
