Electrical Engineer - Automated Systems

Turn-Key Solutions is a growing automation company that designs and builds custom robotic systems, machine tending cells, assembly stations, welding systems, material‑handling equipment, CNC fixturing, and production work holding solutions. Our projects are anything but cookie‑cutter. One week may involve a robotic assembly cell, and the next may be a large‑scale automated welding or material‑handling system for an automotive, energy, or industrial customer.

We are looking for a motivated, hands‑on Electrical Engineer to join our team. This person will be responsible for the electrical design and integration of custom automation equipment from concept through installation. The right candidate will enjoy solving real‑world problems, collaborating with mechanical, controls, fabrication, and assembly teams, and seeing their designs come to life on the shop floor.

• Design complete electrical systems for custom automated machinery, robotic cells, assembly equipment, welding systems, and material‑handling solutions.
• Create electrical schematics, panel layouts, wiring diagrams, cable schedules, BOMs, and installation drawings using electrical design software.
• Select and specify electrical components including PLCs, HMIs, VFDs, servo systems, sensors, safety devices, disconnects, power supplies, relays, pneumatic controls, and industrial networking hardware.
• Design industrial control panels and machine electrical systems in accordance with customer requirements, UL508A, NFPA 79, NEC, and applicable safety standards.
• Work closely with controls engineers to support PLC, HMI, robot, vision, and motion‑control integration.
• Collaborate with mechanical engineers to ensure proper equipment layout, cable routing, operator access, guarding, and serviceability.
• Support panel build, machine wiring, debug, testing, runoff, Factory Acceptance Testing, and customer installation activities.
• Troubleshoot electrical and controls issues during machine build, startup, and field installation.
• Participate in technical discussions with customers, suppliers, and internal project teams throughout the project lifecycle.
• Provide technical support for equipment upgrades, service projects, change orders, and continuous‑improvement opportunities.
• Help improve electrical design standards, documentation quality, and reusable engineering practices across the company.

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Electrical Engineering Technology, Mechatronics Engineering, or a related field. Equivalent practical experience in industrial automation may also be considered.
• 3–7 years of experience designing electrical systems for industrial machinery, automation equipment, robotics, OEM machinery, or manufacturing systems.
• Strong ability to read, create, and interpret electrical schematics, panel layouts, wiring diagrams, and bills of materials.
• Experience designing industrial control panels and machine electrical systems.
• Knowledge of industrial electrical components, controls hardware, sensors, safety devices, motors, VFDs, servos, and industrial communications.
• Familiarity with UL508A, NFPA 79, NEC, NFPA 70E, and machine‑safety best practices.
• Ability to work effectively in a fast‑paced, project‑based environment with multiple active projects.
• Strong troubleshooting skills, attention to detail, and practical problem‑solving ability.
• Willingness to occasionally travel for customer installations, startup support, service work, and project meetings.

• Experience with AutoCAD Electrical, EPLAN, Solid Works Electrical, or similar electrical design software.
• Familiarity with Allen‑Bradley hardware, including Compact Logix and Control Logix PLC platforms, Panel View HMIs, Power Flex drives, and distributed I/O.
• Experience with FANUC, ABB,…
