R&D Electrical Systems and Test Engineer

Compensation Range:$86,400 - $126,400

R&D Electrical Systems & Test Engineer Build. Test. Troubleshoot. Improve.

At Munters, we’re helping industries around the world become more energy efficient and sustainable through innovative air treatment solutions. Our technology supports critical applications across manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, food, agriculture, and other industries.

We’re looking for a curious and hands-on R&D Electrical Systems & Test Engineer who enjoys solving problems, working with industrial equipment, and bringing new ideas to life.

This isn’t a role where you’ll spend all day behind a computer. You’ll have the opportunity to design electrical and control systems, work with PLCs and instrumentation, build and modify prototypes, troubleshoot equipment, conduct testing, and see your projects progress from an initial idea to a functioning system.

What You’ll DoAs part of our R&D team, you’ll:

Design electrical control systems, including schematics, wiring diagrams, panel layouts, bills of materials, and electrical calculations

Develop, modify, and troubleshoot PLC and HMI programs, primarily using Siemens and Allen-Bradley platforms

Support the build, testing, modification, and commissioning of control panels, prototypes, and test systems

Troubleshoot electrical and control systems involving PLCs, VFDs, sensors, motors, instrumentation, and industrial communications

Install and configure controls hardware and electrical components

Plan and conduct engineering tests, analyze data, document results, and recommend improvements

Help maintain and continuously improve our R&D laboratory and testing capabilities

Take ownership of projects from concept and design through testing and completion

Collaborate with mechanical engineering, manufacturing, product management, service, and other teams to solve technical challenges

Create and maintain drawings, BOMs, test procedures, reports, and other engineering documentation

What You’ll Bring We’re looking for someone with:

A B.S. in Electrical Engineering, Electrical Engineering Technology, or an equivalent combination of education and relevant experience

Approximately 2–5 years of relevant experience in electrical engineering, controls, automation, or industrial equipment

Experience designing electrical control systems and creating schematics and wiring diagrams

Experience working with PLC-based controls

Hands-on experience troubleshooting electrical and controls equipment

Familiarity with the National Electrical Code (NEC)
The ability and interest to work directly with equipment in an R&D, laboratory, manufacturing, and field environment

Even Better If You Have

Experience with Siemens and/or Allen-Bradley PLCsExperience with AutoCAD Electrical or similar electrical design software

Knowledge of UL 508A and UL 1995

Experience with VFDs, sensors, instrumentation, motors, industrial communications, or data acquisition systems

Exposure to HVAC, air-handling, or industrial dehumidification equipment

Experience with Solid Works These  are valuable additions, but we recognize that great candidates may not check every box.

What Will Help You Succeed You’ll enjoy this role if you’re someone who:

Likes to build, test, troubleshoot, and figure out how things work Enjoys a mix of computer-based engineering and hands-on work Takes ownership and follows projects through to completion

Is curious, resourceful, and comfortable tackling unfamiliar technical problems

Wants to learn new controls technologies and PLC platforms

Enjoys collaborating with different engineering and business teams

Can adapt as R&D priorities and technical challenges evolve

Additional Details Occasional travel of approximately 5%
Hands-on work with electrical systems, laboratory/test equipment, prototypes,…
