Electrical Engineer

Caldwell, ID
Full Time
Mid Level



Summary:
The Electrical Engineer plays a key role in designing, analyzing, and testing electrical power equipment and systems. This position transforms custom specifications into detailed drawings and schematics for unique electrical power solutions. The engineer will use SolidWorks and AutoCAD to develop technical documentation and may occasionally serve as a point of contact for field support during installation and maintenance. This role is vital in ensuring projects meet customer expectations, industry standards, and regulatory compliance—directly contributing to client satisfaction and overall project success.

Accountabilities:
  • Prepare One-Line diagrams, technical drawings, and specifications for packaged backup electrical power systems, ensuring installations meet quality standards and customer requirements.
  • Develop designs for integrating electrical components such as generators, breakers, transformers, control panels, and distribution systems.
  • Create load-balanced circuit diagrams and ensure proper documentation.
  • Perform engineering analysis on electrical systems used in JTS products.
  • Create and manage Bills of Material (BOMs).
  • Evaluate electrical equipment for compliance with customer requirements, industry standards, government regulations, and performance criteria.
  • Ensure adherence to safety codes and regulations in all electrical designs and installations.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams, engineers, departments, and external partners to support successful project execution.
  • Provide technical support during installation, commissioning, and maintenance of electrical systems.
  • Investigate, diagnose, and resolve customer issues promptly and professionally.
  • Research new technologies, trends, and methods to enhance product design and system performance.
  • Assess long- and short-term implications of engineering decisions and alternative solutions.
  • Understand manufacturing requirements and cost considerations when designing systems.
  • Participate in the development of moderately complex project plans and support engineering activities for clients.
  • Identify design or build issues, develop solutions, prepare documentation, and ensure timely resolution.
  • Provide clear technical documentation, updates, and support to engineers, project teams, and management.
Attributes:
  • Safety First – Prioritize safety in every design, decision, and action to protect people, equipment, and operations.
  • Have Humanity – Lead with empathy, respect, and integrity, recognizing that people matter as much as performance.
  • Be Transparent – Communicate openly and honestly to build trust through clarity, accountability, and shared understanding.
  • Drive Innovation – Approach every project with creativity, curiosity, and a commitment to continuous improvement.
  • Be Resilient – Maintain focus, adaptability, and calm when facing challenges, ensuring steady progress under pressure.
  • Always Reliable – Consistently deliver high-quality work and follow through on commitments to earn and maintain trust.
  • Show Grit – Approach difficult problems with determination, persistence, and a positive, solution-oriented mindset.
Required Knowledge/Experience:
  • Bachelor of Science (BS) in Electrical Engineering.
  • 2–3+ years of engineering experience with progressively responsible project assignments.
  • Experience in electrical power systems, equipment design, construction materials, techniques, and procedures.
  • Advanced technical knowledge of circuit design, system analysis, manufacturing processes, and testing methods.
  • Ability to design load-balanced systems and document them accurately on One-Line diagrams.
  • Knowledge of NEC, NSC, UBC, IBC, NFPA codes, and related construction and safety regulations.
  • Understanding of proper specification and integration of fire and life safety systems.
  • Proficiency in CAD tools (AutoCAD, SolidWorks) and relevant programming languages or software tools.
  • Professional Engineering (PE) license and UL508A certification preferred.
