  • Lead cross-functional design reviews to obtain engineering approval for production release.
  • Conduct UL type-testing for product certification, develop test procedures covering UL routine tests and factory acceptance tests, and maintain the quality-system controls, documentation, and records required to meet UL Follow-Up Services requirements and ensure compliant application of the UL Mark.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Electrical Engineering Technology, or a related technical discipline.
  • 3–7+ years of experience in electrical design for industrial control panels, switchboards, switchgear, MCCs, or power distribution equipment.
  • Prior experience working in a UL 508A Panel Shop, switchboard/switchgear environment (UL 891 / UL 845), or similar regulated manufacturing environment.

Preferred Skills

  • Familiarity with UL certification process for new facilities.
  • Experience coordinating short-circuit, dielectric, and temperature-rise testing.
  • Understanding of sheet metal, powder coating, wiring harness, and busbar fabrication processes.
  • Working knowledge of ISO or other quality management systems.
