Responsibilities
- Conduct preventative maintenance and repairs on electrical systems and machinery to ensure optimal operational performance.
- Analyse root causes of electrical faults using advanced diagnostic techniques and implement effective solutions.
- Develop and update electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, and system layouts using AutoCAD, Revit, MicroStation, or SolidWorks.
- Design and implement system upgrades or modifications with a focus on automation, including control logic programming with ARM microcontrollers or PLCs.
- Perform debugging and troubleshooting of embedded firmware using languages such as C++, Python, Perl, or MATLAB.
- Solder surface mount technology components and perform signal processing tasks as required for system enhancements.
- Collaborate with mechanical engineers to integrate electrical systems into mechanical designs, ensuring compliance with safety standards.
- Utilise simulation tools like Simulink to model system behaviour and optimise performance parameters.
- Maintain detailed documentation of schematics, system configurations, and maintenance records in accordance with industry standards.
- Assist in training team members on new electrical systems or upgrades.
Experience
- Proven experience in electrical engineering within an industrial or manufacturing environment.
- Strong knowledge of electrical system design, including schematics creation and interpretation.
- Hands-on experience with programmable logic controllers (PLCs), firmware development, debugging, and soldering techniques.
- Familiarity with CAD software such as AutoCAD, Revit, MicroStation, or SolidWorks for system design documentation.
- Competence in analysing root causes of complex electrical issues using tools like MATLAB or Python for data analysis.
- Mechanical knowledge related to surface mount technology (SMT), system integration, and mechanical components is advantageous.
- Experience working with ARM microcontrollers or similar embedded systems is desirable. This role offers an excellent opportunity for a dedicated professional to contribute to innovative projects within a dynamic environment while advancing their technical expertise in electrical maintenance engineering.
