Snr Electrical Engineer

Job description

Your mission Join us in designing, building, and operating the electrical systems that power our First-of-a-Kind (tFOAK) DAC facility — and help define the electrical architecture for the next generation of commercial plants. You'll own electrical design end-to-end: from schematics and panel layouts through to physical installation and commissioning. You'll be equally comfortable in front of EPLAN as you are with a cable in your hand. In a small team, you won't just design — you'll execute, review, and iterate in tight loops alongside process, automation, and mechanical engineers. Key points Own electrical design end-to-end — schematics, panel layouts, cable routing. Hands-on wiring and installation alongside the engineering team. Drive electrical acceptance, compliance, and grid operator interfaces. Collaborate with automation on control panels, signal lists, and instrumentation. Maintain electrical documentation and as-built records. Your profile Skills & Experience Degree in Electrical Engineering or closely related field (Bachelor's minimum; Master's preferred). 5+ years of experience in industrial electrical engineering, with demonstrated ownership of both design and hands-on installation. Proficient in EPLAN Electric P8 or equivalent schematic design tooling. Strong working knowledge of low- and medium-voltage systems, switchgear, motor control, and field instrumentation. Experience with control panel design and wiring in automation-heavy environments (PLC integration, sensor/actuator cabling). Familiarity with German electrical standards and regulations (VDE, DIN EN, BetrSichV); experience with grid operator interfaces (e.g. Stromnetz, TAB) a strong plus. Comfortable working in an industrial construction or pilot plant environment — safety-conscious and hands-on.
