This is not a traditional scheduling-focused project management role. We are looking for a highly technical, customer-facing Project Manager who understands low-voltage electrical distribution equipment and can independently manage engineered-to-order projects from customer order through engineering, submittals, manufacturing, testing, shipment, and closeout.
The ideal candidate has worked within an electrical equipment OEM/manufacturing environment and brings hands‑on knowledge of switchboards, panel boards, switch gear, circuit breakers, BOMs, and manufacturer product catalogs.
What You’ll Do- Manage multiple engineered-to-order electrical projects from customer PO/order through engineering, submittals, production, testing/FAT, shipment, and closeout
- Serve as the primary technical and project-management contact for customers
- Review customer specifications, one-lines, riser diagrams, panel schedules, schematics, drawings, and submittals
- Translate customer requirements into actionable direction for engineering and manufacturing teams
- Develop, review, and validate Bills of Material (BOMs)
- Independently identify and specify circuit breakers and associated components
- Use manufacturer catalogs and online configuration/selection tools to determine appropriate vendor part numbers
- Work with Schneider/Square D, Eaton, ABB
, and similar electrical distribution products - Coordinate engineering revisions, customer markups, change orders, material availability, manufacturing schedules, and delivery requirements
- Identify technical or commercial issues early and proactively drive resolution
- Communicate schedule changes, risks, and project status directly with customers
- Partner closely with engineering, manufacturing, procurement, quality, suppliers, and leadership
- Support testing, FAT, shipment readiness, and post-delivery technical questions as needed
We are specifically seeking candidates with meaningful experience in:
- Low-voltage power distribution
- Electrical equipment OEM or manufacturing environments
- Switchboards, panel boards, and/or switch gear
- Independent circuit breaker selection and specification
- Using manufacturer/vendor catalogs and online product-selection tools
- Identifying exact manufacturer part numbers without relying on vendor representatives to build the BOM
- Building and validating Bills of Material
- Schneider/Square D, Eaton, ABB
, or comparable electrical distribution equipment - Reading and interpreting:
- Customer specifications
- Managing technical electrical projects through the full manufacturing lifecycle
- Direct customer communication and technical project ownership
- Experience with UL 67 panel boards
- Experience with UL 891 switchboards
- Experience with UL 1558 switch gear
- Familiarity with UL 50 / UL 50E
- Experience with engineered-to-order manufacturing
- Knowledge of NEC requirements, AIC/fault-current requirements, breakers, bus, transformers, feeder sizing, and protective devices
- Experience with Schneider, Eaton, or ABB configuration/quotation tools
- Electrical engineering or closely related technical background
The strongest candidate will be able to look at a customer specification or one-line, understand the electrical requirements, determine the correct equipment and breaker configuration, navigate manufacturer catalogs or online tools, validate the BOM, and keep the project moving without waiting on a vendor representative for basic product-selection support
.
This role requires someone who is proactive, technically confident, comfortable making decisions, and willing to pick up the phone and drive an issue to resolution.
If your background includes low-voltage electrical equipment manufacturing, switchboards/panel boards, breaker specification, BOM development, and independent use of manufacturer catalogs, we would love to speak with you.
