- Ability to read and interpret electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, blueprints, and assembly drawings.

- Experience assembling, wiring, troubleshooting, and testing electrical control panels.

- Ability to work independently with minimal supervision.

- Knowledge of industrial electrical components, including relays, contactors, transformers, terminal blocks, motor starters, disconnects, and control circuits.

- Ability to develop panel layouts and determine component placement using supplied specifications, schematics, and existing designs.

- Strong electrical troubleshooting, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills.

- Ability to identify drawing discrepancies, wiring issues, and manufacturing concerns.

- Basic computer skills for production documentation and work instructions.

- Ability to safely use electrical assembly tools, measuring devices, and manufacturing equipment.

- Willingness to cross-train in electrical assembly, HVAC equipment testing, fan balancing, and other manufacturing operations.

- Ability to lift up to 50 pounds and perform the physical requirements of the position.

Preferred Qualifications

- 3+ years of experience in electrical panel assembly, industrial electrical systems, controls, or related manufacturing.

- Experience developing electrical panel layouts from schematics, bills of materials, existing panels, or design concepts.

- Technical school, trade school, apprenticeship, or vocational training in electrical systems, industrial maintenance, mechatronics, or controls.

- Experience working in custom-engineered or made-to-order manufacturing environments.

- Familiarity with industrial HVAC equipment, air handlers, furnaces, or related mechanical systems.

- Experience with Lean Manufacturing, 5S, or continuous improvement programs.

- Overhead crane certification.

- Demonstrated commitment to safety, quality, productivity, and teamwork.
