Therm-x of California is the leading manufacturer for Advanced Temperature and Control Systems for Hi-Technology industries. We have been in business for over 30 years and have a diverse customer base. We offer competitive pay, and a comprehensive benefits package.
We are seeking an Electrical Engineers to design, develop, and support industrial electrical and control systems used in advanced manufacturing and test environments. The Electrical Engineer works collaboratively within cross-functional teams, applies sound engineering judgment, and supports both new product development and sustaining engineering efforts. This position operates with moderate supervision and can independently execute designs, support manufacturing, and contribute to continuous product improvement.
Responsibilities and duties;
Design, review, and maintain electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, specifications, and bills of materials (BOM)
Evaluate designs for functionality, safety, compliance, and manufacturability
Participate in R&D efforts, including hands-on prototyping, testing, and validation of new concepts
Perform electrical testing using standard measurement equipment (multimeters, LCR meters, impedance analyzers, spectrum analyzers)
Develop and support industrial control panels and electrical test systems
Provide engineering support to Manufacturing Engineering, including OMS documentation such as:
Manufacturing process flow diagrams
BOMs
Work instructions
Troubleshoot electrical and control system issues during development and production
Perform hands-on wiring, panel assembly, and prototyping independently or with team members
Collaborate with mechanical, manufacturing, quality, and test teams to support product release and lifecycle improvements
Qualifications and Skills
Core Electrical Engineering Fundamentals
Strong foundation in electrical engineering fundamentals
Ability to read, interpret, and create electrical schematics and wiring diagrams
Proficiency with electrical CAD tools; Autodesk Electrical preferred
Comfortable using hand tools for wiring, assembly, and prototyping
Proficient with MS Office (Excel, Word, Outlook, PowerPoint)
Proficient with MS Project
Industrial Control Panels & UL508A (NITW)
Experience designing industrial control panels compliant with UL508A standards
Familiarity with UL508A.NITW Industrial Control Panel requirements
Create and maintain general specifications for industrial control panels and electrical test systems
Develop panel layouts, wiring diagrams, labeling schemes, and BOMs aligned with UL508A
Support UL compliance efforts, including documentation, design reviews, and test readiness
Partner with manufacturing and quality teams to ensure compliance, safety, and functional performance
PLC & HMI / GUI Programming
Experience with PLC programming (Allen-Bradley, Siemens, or equivalent platforms)
Experience developing and modifying HMI / GUI interfaces for industrial equipment and test systems
Integrate PLCs, HMIs, sensors, actuators, and safety devices into complete control systems
Troubleshoot PLC-controlled systems in development and manufacturing environments
Education & Experience
BS Degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent practical experience
Demonstrated experience supporting industrial electrical or control systems
Ability to work independently on well-defined problems and contribute to more complex system-level designs
Preferred Skills
RF design and testing experience
Familiarity with RF filters and RF products used in semiconductor manufacturing
Experience with high-power RF systems and thermal control systems
3D modeling experience
Experience with Autodesk Vault or other Vault PDM systems
Engineering project management skills, including:
Development of block and flow diagrams
Creation and maintenance of Gantt charts and schedules
Basic cost estimating and budget awareness
Prototype development, build coordination, and iteration support
Physical Demands: While performing the duties of this job, the employee is regularly required to be in a stationary position; move within the facilities, constantly operate machining equipment and tools, inspect surroundings and equipment, occasionally ascends/descends a ladder, communicate with others, detect odors, and transport equipment up to 40 pounds.
Work Environment: high noise level associated with a manufacturing facility
