Job Title:

Electrical Engineer

This Electrical Engineer role supports the design and manufacturing of advanced laboratory equipment, with a strong focus on existing electrical components, electrical subsystems, and product testing. You will collaborate closely with cross‑functional product development teams to enhance electrical systems in products such as freezers, biological safety cabinets, shakers, incubators, and water systems. The position combines hands‑on circuit design, simulation, troubleshooting, and test validation to deliver reliable, environmentally responsible, and regulatory‑compliant solutions in a manufacturing environment.

• Collaborate with product development and cross‑functional teams to design and optimize electrical systems for laboratory products, including freezers, biological safety cabinets, shakers, incubators, and water systems.
• Identify and implement design optimization projects to improve performance, reliability, and manufacturability of existing electrical components and subsystems.
• Participate in Practical Process Improvement (PPI) teams to enhance electrical systems, achieving high quality, long‑term reliability, and environmentally friendly designs while meeting regulatory requirements.
• Develop detailed specifications for electrical systems, subsystems, and components, ensuring they meet performance and compliance requirements.
• Troubleshoot electrical systems, including both analog and digital circuits, to resolve existing issues and improve product quality and reliability.
• Analyze electrical systems using simulation software to improve design robustness, performance, and reliability.
• Contribute to analog circuit design, digital circuit design, and software design and troubleshooting, including interfaces to electromechanical systems.
• Apply familiarity with C and C++ programming languages to support software‑related aspects of electrical system design and debugging.
• Develop and execute comprehensive test plans to validate electrical system performance, using design for reliability tools and performance sensitivity analysis.
• Ensure designs and test plans consider applicable third‑party certifications, such as FDA, UL, CE, and CSA, and support compliance with these standards.
• Improve current electrical systems by applying Design for Manufacturability and Design for Assembly principles, focusing on ease of service and cost reduction.
• Work closely with external suppliers to identify and implement improvements to existing product designs.
• Use PCB CAD design tools to support printed circuit board design and modifications.
• Utilize Microsoft Office and other computer tools to document designs, analyses, test results, and project status.
• Support technicians by interpreting schematics and assisting with troubleshooting activities on the shop floor.
• Participate in Continuous Improvement initiatives and support PPI, Keys, and Lean projects to enhance processes and product quality.
• Perform all job duties in a safe manner and follow all safety policies and procedures.
• Perform all job duties consistent with the organization’s Code of Ethics and core values.
• Ensure all work complies with ISO standards and applicable regulatory or statutory requirements.
• Perform other duties and cross‑training assignments as required to support team and organizational objectives.

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering.
• Two to five years of experience and/or training in electrical circuit design and product development.
• Hands‑on experience with analog and digital circuit design and troubleshooting.
• Ability to analyze electrical systems using simulation software.
• Familiarity with C and C++ programming languages for software‑related design and troubleshooting.
• Experience working with electromechanical systems and their electrical interfaces.
• Ability to develop specifications for electrical systems, subsystems, and components.
• Experience developing and executing test plans…
