Electrical Controls Designer

Job Description

We are seeking a skilled and detail-oriented Electrical Control Designer to join our engineering team. The ideal candidate will be responsible for designing electrical control systems and schematics using AutoCAD, while also managing multiple projects through their entire lifecycle. This role requires a strong understanding of electrical design principles, industrial control systems, and proven project management experience to ensure timely and accurate project execution.

• Design and develop electrical control panel layouts, wiring schematics, and system diagrams using AutoCAD Electrical.
• Collaborate with engineers, project managers, and manufacturing teams to ensure designs meet project specifications and compliance standards.
• Manage multiple electrical design projects simultaneously, from initial concept through to final delivery.
• Prepare and maintain Bills of Materials (BOMs), cable schedules, and component specifications.
• Ensure all designs comply with relevant industry standards (e.g., NEC, UL, IEC).
• Conduct design reviews and provide technical support during panel fabrication, installation, and commissioning.
• Coordinate with vendors and suppliers to select components and obtain necessary technical documentation.
• Monitor project timelines, track deliverables, and communicate status updates with internal teams and clients.

At Process Control, we design, build, and support industrial control systems that actually work — no smoke, mirrors, or mysterious blinking lights (unless they’re supposed to blink). Based in the heart of Syracuse, NY, we’re a tight-knit team of engineers, designers, and tech enthusiasts who get excited about clean schematics, well-labeled wires, and a perfectly sized control panel enclosure. We’re serious about automation, but not too serious about ourselves.

Whether we're solving complex design challenges or debating the best places to eat during wiring sessions, we believe in working hard, learning constantly, and laughing often. Projects that make a difference in industries like manufacturing, energy, and process automation. A small team atmosphere where your ideas actually matter. If you love solving real-world problems with smart design, and crave variation in your work, you might just belong here.
