Job Description
Electrical Engineer – Manufacturing Support (Sustaining)
If you love solving real-world electrical problems on the floor, not just behind a screen — this is your role!
This isn't another product development job where you only see prototypes in CAD. This is a hands-on, floor-facing Electrical Engineering position supporting highly specialized manufacturing lines producing life-enhancing mobility products. You’ll be the go-to electrical expert embedded directly in the heart of production — troubleshooting issues, improving test systems, collaborating with line workers, and helping to keep critical operations running smoothly.
This company is privately owned, stable, and deeply values work-life balance, employee respect, and engineering craft. No mandatory overtime. No corporate red tape. Just meaningful work with a team that wants you to succeed.
What You’ll Do: - Own and support all electrical systems across multiple production lines (stairlifts, auto lifts, platform lifts, and more)
- Troubleshoot day-to-day electrical issues (wiring errors, DC systems, fixture failures, sensor faults)
- Manage and improve PLC-based automated test stations
- Collaborate closely with assembly line personnel, supervisors, QA, and engineers
- Maintain and upgrade test fixtures, tools, and equipment (including building new solutions as needed)
- Support new product launches with test system integration and software adjustments
- Contribute to a culture of problem-solving, humility, and practical impact
You’ll Excel Here If You: - Enjoy working with real-world systems — wiring, sensors, motors, fixtures — not just simulations
- Like being on the floor, talking to line workers, diagnosing problems, and jumping in to help
- Have strong troubleshooting instincts, even when documentation is vague or the issue is human
- Appreciate a stable environment with minimal politics, open communication, and long-term team members
- Want to make an immediate difference in throughput, quality, and team performance
Must-Have Qualifications: - Bachelor’s Degree in Electrical Engineering (strongly preferred; experience may substitute in some cases)
- 3–10+ years of experience supporting manufacturing operations (sustaining, test, or production support)
- Strong knowledge of:
- PLC programming and troubleshooting
- 12V / 24V DC systems
- HMI / touch screen configuration
- Test fixture development or support
- Comfort with Arduino, LabVIEW, or other small-scale test tools (a plus)
- Ability to read schematics and diagnose hands-on wiring issues quickly
Soft Skills That Matter: - Patient and collaborative communicator — able to talk shop with production staff
- Problem-solver who can improvise and iterate without being micromanaged
- Comfortable in a sustaining/support role — not chasing titles or strictly product development work
- Interested in steady, long-term contribution, not rapid job-hopping or ladder climbing
What’s In It for You: - Stable and profitable company with over 40 years of growth and innovation
- No required overtime – your evenings and weekends belong to you
- Flexible PTO managed with common sense, not bureaucracy
- Embedded in a modern, climate-controlled production facility
- Room to grow — opportunity to rotate into new areas or take on new product lines over time
- Quarterly bonus (~3%) based on company performance
- Team culture built on trust, zero egos, and mutual support
Schedule & Logistics: - 100% On-Site | Climate-Controlled | One Shift
- Typical hours: 7:00 AM – 4:00 PM to overlap with assembly operations
- No travel required
- Full benefits, including health, dental, 401(k), and paid time off

This is a rare opportunity for a skilled, floor-savvy electrical engineer to join a company where your work has clear, immediate impact and where you're treated like a human, not a cog.
