Electrical Engineer Designer

About the Company

Central Moloney has been a trailblazer in manufacturing distribution transformers and transformer components since 1949. Our ISO 9001-certified legacy is built on delivering top-notch products, on-time reliability, and pushing the boundaries of excellence.

Responsibilities

• Develop and validate transformer electrical configurations including high and low voltage winding arrangements (e.g., delta, wye, series/parallel), impedance, and insulation coordination for voltage classes up to 35 kV
• Check electrical designs against material characteristics and performance criteria, such as core and load losses, impedance and voltage regulation, flux and current densities, dielectric withstand and BIL
• Define and specify major components such as tap changers and dual voltage switches, bushings, arrestors and fusing, terminal arrangements and type, accessories such as PRDs, gauges, etc.
• Review and prepare technical design documents including connection diagrams, nameplate data, tap changer/switch wiring, bill of materials for electrical components
• Interpret and apply relevant industry standards (e.g., IEEE, CSA, and DOE) to ensure compliance
• Participate in design reviews and root cause analysis of production or design issues
• Contribute to standardization of transformer designs and development of design tools, templates, and best practices
• Stay updated on evolving industry standards, participating in technical events as required
• Support certification and testing requirements, such as losses, dielectric, short circuit and impulse testing
• Coordinate with mechanical design to ensure compatibility of bushing locations, terminal clearances and component layout configurations
• Collaborate with manufacturing, test, and quality teams to resolve non-conformances, implement engineering changes, and validate design improvements

Requirements

• Education: Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering
• Experience: 3+ years of experience in a designer role in an engineering or manufacturing environment of electrical distribution equipment, preferably transformers
