Position Summary

The Electrical Design Engineer is a key member of the Rise Power Systems engineering team responsible for designing and developing industrial and critical power equipment. This is a design-focused role centered on creating robust, manufacturable, and compliant electrical designs.

The role includes development of schematics, layouts, wiring documentation, and BOMs using modern ECAD tools (EPLAN strongly preferred). The engineer will work within an ISO 9001 design and product development framework, while supporting UL Procedure Files and UL Follow-Up Services (FUS) requirements to sustain ongoing certification compliance.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop complete electrical designs (schematics, wiring diagrams, panel layouts, BOMs); EPLAN strongly preferred.

• Use 3DEXPERIENCE (3DX) for PDM/PLM to manage part numbers, revisions, and configuration control.

• Create wire routing, cable schedules, terminal plans, and harness documentation to support efficient and manufacturable builds.

• Design to applicable UL, ANSI, and IEEE requirements, including protection, conductor sizing, spacing, grounding/bonding, and equipment ratings.

• Execute work within Rise Power Systems’ Product Development Process (PDP) under ISO 9001 design controls.

• Maintain engineering documentation and design records required to support UL Procedure Files and UL FUS expectations.

• Lead cross-functional design reviews to enable engineering release and manufacturing readiness.

• Support certification activities including type testing, test procedure development, and routine/FAT coordination.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering, Electrical Engineering Technology, or related discipline.

• 3–7+ years of electrical design experience for industrial control panels, power distribution systems, MCCs, or similar equipment.

• Experience working in regulated environments aligned with UL/ANSI/IEEE and structured quality systems.

Preferred Skills

• Strong experience with EPLAN Electric P8 and Panel Pro (highly preferred).

• Familiarity with 3DEXPERIENCE (3DX) or similar PDM/PLM systems.

• Experience working within an ISO 9001 design and development framework.

• Familiarity with UL certification processes and sustaining compliance through UL FUS.

• Experience supporting short-circuit, dielectric, and temperature-rise testing.

• Working knowledge of fabrication and assembly processes.

• Understanding of quality systems and continuous improvement practices.

• PLC/HMI programming experience is a plus.
