About the role
The Electrical Designer is responsible for creating and maintaining electrical drawing packages for low-voltage and medium-voltage power distribution equipment. This role supports the design and manufacture of switchgear, switchboards, and related assemblies through the development of accurate single-line diagrams, three-line diagrams, schematics, wiring diagrams, panel and equipment layouts, and associated bills of materials (BOM).
Responsibilities
- Create and revise single-line diagrams, three-line diagrams, schematics, interconnection diagrams, wiring diagrams, and panel layout drawings for power distribution equipment.
- Develop complete drawing packages for manufacturing, quality, project management, and customer submittals based on project specifications, bills of material, and customer requirements.
- Produce panel and equipment layouts that account for component spacing, accessibility, routing, serviceability, and manufacturability.
- Use CAD tools such as SolidWorks Electrical Schematic, SolidWorks Electrical 3D, SOLIDWORKS PDM, or similar platforms to create, manage, and maintain electrical documentation, 3D routing models, and design data.
- Route wires, cables, and harnesses in 3D environments when required to support physical layout, coordination, and build accuracy.
- Create, maintain, and improve electrical symbols, manufacturer parts, and component libraries to support repeatable and standardized design output.
- Develop and maintain standard drawing sets, templates, and design details for commonly used components and product configurations.
- Interpret customer drawings, specifications, and electrical requirements and translate them into Maverick drawing standards and production-ready documentation.
- Coordinate with engineering, project management, purchasing, quality, and manufacturing to resolve design questions, clarify requirements, and implement changes throughout the design and production process.
- Support bill of material (BOM) development and validation to ensure alignment between ERP, schematics, layouts, and released manufacturing documents.
- Manage design files and documentation within SOLIDWORKS PDM, including check-in/check-out practices, revision control, data card updates, workflow transition states, and release status management to support accurate data management and document control.
- Review drawings for completeness, consistency, and accuracy before release, and support redline incorporation and continuous improvement of design standards.
- Perform other job-related duties as assigned.
Qualifications
- Minimum of 2 years of experience creating electrical drawing packages for industrial control, power distribution, switchgear, switchboards, PDUs, panelboards, ATS/STS equipment, or similar engineered electrical assemblies.
- Experience with at least one of the following or similar tools: SolidWorks Electrical 3D wire routing, AutoCAD Electrical, EPLAN, Autodesk Inventor Cable and Harness / Inventor Electrical, or comparable electromechanical electrical-design platforms.
- Experience supporting drawing revisions, BOM development, and manufacturing change implementation in a production environment.
- Experience with PDM, PLM, ERP, or similar data management tools, including file check-in/check-out, revision control, transition states, BOM data, and released drawing/document management.
Preferred Qualifications
- Associate degree in electrical/electronic engineering technology or a related field from an accredited institution preferred; equivalent practical experience will be considered.
- Experience designing or documenting low-voltage or medium-voltage power distribution equipment.
- Experience creating or supporting 3D layouts of electrical equipment, components, panels, wiring, cable routing, or related electromechanical assemblies.
