Each year, the company manufactures thousands of miles of underground and submarine cables and systems for power transmission and distribution, as well as medium low voltage cables for the construction and infrastructure sectors. We also produce a comprehensive range of optical fibers, copper cables and connectivity for voice, video and data transmission for the telecommunication sector.

We are 30,000 employees, across 50+ countries. Everyone at Prysmian has the potential to make their mark; because whatever you do, wherever you are based, you will be part of a company that is helping transform the world around us.

We are seeking a Senior Electrical Engineer to join a small, highly collaborative engineering team working on copper Ethernet cabling systems and hybrid fiber/copper solutions.

This role is ideal for an engineer who enjoys a hands on, broad technical scope and thrives in a dynamic, fast moving development environment. The successful candidate will contribute across the full product lifecycle—from concept and analysis through testing, documentation, and field support—acting as a technical generalist with depth in electrical engineering fundamentals.

Key Responsibilities Technical Engineering & Development Support the design, analysis, and validation of copper Ethernet cabling systems, including twisted pair performance characteristics (impedance, insertion loss, crosstalk, return loss, etc.)Contribute to the development and evaluation of hybrid fiber power (HFP/FMPS) and powered communications systems, including power delivery, protection, and integration considerations

Assist with electrical modeling, simulation, and lab measurement of cables, connectors, and system level performance

Participate in failure analysis and root cause investigations related to electrical and signal integrity issues

Testing & Validation Conduct and document laboratory testing (electrical, thermal, environmental, and EMC related tests)
Use network analyzers, oscilloscopes, power supplies, data loggers, and related instrumentation

Support development and execution of test plans aligned with industry standards (TIA, IEEE, IEC, UL, NEC, and others as applicable)
Cross Functional Collaboration Work closely with mechanical, manufacturing, quality, and compliance teams

Support interaction with suppliers, contract manufacturers, and field personnel

Assist with preparation of technical documentation, drawings, reports, and internal design reviews

Continuous Learning & Support Stay current with evolving Ethernet, cabling, and power delivery technologies

Support Product Development related activities and product qualification efforts

Support standards development through participation and contribution

Support the industry through peer reviewed publication

Provide technical assistance during prototyping, pilot builds, and early deployments

Minimum Qualifications Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering required3-5+ years of relevant engineering experience

Strong foundation in:
Circuit analysis, Electromagnetics and signal integrity, AC/DC power fundamentals, RF principles

Ability to work effectively in a small team, multi-disciplinary environment

Willingness to be hands on in both lab and office settings

Strong written and verbal communication skills

Preferred Qualifications
10+ years of relevant engineering experience preferred

Exposure to structured cabling systems, Ethernet PHYs, or high speed copper links

Familiarity with:
Vector Network Analyzers (VNAs), Time domain reflectometry (TDR), Power electronics or fault managed power concepts

Experience with MATLAB, Python, or similar tools for data analysis

Awareness of TIA, IEEE 802, UL, NEC, or IEC standards

Curious and adaptable a technical generalist comfortable wearing multiple hats Comfortable moving between analysis, testing, documentation, and troubleshooting

Motivated by real world engineering problems rather than narrow specialization
