Electrical Engineer

We are seeking an Electrical Engineer to design, develop, test, and maintain electrical systems and components. The role covers requirements analysis, schematic design, component selection, prototyping, validation, and troubleshooting. The ideal candidate applies engineering fundamentals, relevant codes/standards, and practical problem-solving to deliver safe, reliable, and cost-effective solutions.

Key Responsibilities

• Design electrical systems including power distribution, control circuits, protection, and grounding/earthing.
• Create and review schematics, wiring diagrams, single-line diagrams (SLD), and panel layouts.
• Perform engineering calculations (load sizing, short-circuit, voltage drop, cable sizing, thermal, etc.).
• Select components (breakers, relays, contactors, VFDs, transformers, sensors, etc.) based on performance, availability, and cost.
• Develop technical specifications, Bills of Materials (BOM), and documentation for procurement and manufacturing.
• Coordinate with mechanical/software/controls teams to integrate electrical subsystems.
• Build prototypes and testing: FAT/SAT, validation, and compliance checks.
• Troubleshoot field and production issues; perform root-cause analysis and corrective actions.
