Key responsibilities:
-
Execute capital projects from scope definition through installation and start-up
-
Design and specify electrical power and control systems (primarily 480VAC)
-
Support equipment installation commissioning and hand-off to operations

5 years electrical engineering experience in a manufacturing or industrial plant
-
Hands-on experience with 480VAC industrial power systems
-
PLC HMI and SCADA troubleshooting experience (Rockwell/Allen-Bradley preferred)
-
Experience with MCCs VFDs and industrial automation equipment
-
Capital project leadership from design through commissioning
-
Ability to coordinate contractors and cross-functional plant teams
-
Comfort working directly on a plant floor and evaluating equipment
Preferred Experience:
-
Metals processing extrusion casting fabrication or heavy industry
-
Mill-grade equipment installation
-
Combustion hydraulic or pneumatic systems
-
Industrial reliability or maintenance engineering
-
High-speed production environments
Why This Role Stands Out:
-
Visible impact on production uptime and plant performance
-
Large-scale capital projects ($1M$40M)
-
Stable manufacturing environment
-
Long-term career growth
-
Full benefits and relocation support
