Commissioning industrial control panels with voltages ranging from 24V DC to 600V AC.
Red-lining electrical drawings for as-built changes.
Contribute to continuous improvement efforts in support of the Electrical Design team's workflows and procedures.
Leverage AI to improve speed and quality of design outputs.

You will be a great fit if you have:

A diploma or degree in Electrical Engineering Technology or equivalent.
