About the role

  • We don't just work together; we thrive together.
  • If you are someone who embodies the values of accountability, inspiration, dedication, efficiency, innovation, integrity, quality, and reliability, we want you on our team.
  • Join us in shaping the future of transformative technology - together.

Responsibilities

  • Design industrial control and power panels end-to-end: schematics, one-line diagrams, panel layouts, wire run lists, BOMs, and assembly drawings for machine control, junction boxes, and test fixtures.
  • Select and size electrical components: circuit breakers, contactors, transformers, terminal blocks, power supplies, drives, switches, cabinet assemblies, and associated wiring.
  • Design custom harnessing and interconnection cabling for integrated systems.
  • Develop test plans, test fixtures, and test procedures to validate hardware performance, safety, and compliance against project requirements and applicable standards.
  • Read, interpret, and debug schematics and control system architectures end-to-end - from sensors and signal conditioning through motor drives, controllers, PLCs, and HMIs.
  • Provide engineering support to panel vendors, the manufacturing floor, and internal stakeholders across sales, service, and purchasing.
  • Document designs accurately for field service and customer support; use ECO (Engineering Change Order) workflows within PLM systems to manage design updates.
  • Test fixture design and hardware test engineering - instrumentation, data acquisition, automated test setup, and characterization.
  • Motors and controls: servo/stepper/BLDC drives, encoders, motion controllers, and closed-loop tuning.
  • Electrical design and documentation software: EPLAN Electric P8, AutoCAD Electrical, or SolidWorks Electrical.

Requirements

  • We use an interdisciplinary development process that combines our diverse engineering experience with creative industrial design solutions.
  • Travel as needed (valid driver's license and vehicle required).
  • BS in Electrical Engineering or equivalent, with 3-5 years of relevant industry experience.
  • It would be great if you had experience with: BS in Electrical Engineering or equivalent, with 3-5 years of relevant industry experience.

Nice to have

  • Sensor integration and signal conditioning across analog and digital signals.
  • PLC and HMI programming with Siemens, Allen-Bradley/Rockwell, or equivalent platforms (safety PLCs a plus), and industrial communication protocols (EtherCAT, EtherNet/IP, Modbus, CANopen, IIoT / Industry 4.0).
  • UL 508A MTR a plus.
  • Scripting and test automation in Python, LabVIEW, or MATLAB.

Compensation

  • 110,000.00 - 140,000.00 USD per year (Wilmington Office)

Benefits

  • Industrial automation and/or automated equipment development (machine builders, contract development, robotics, semiconductor, medical device manufacturing equipment, or similar).
  • About Goddard: Founded in 1997, Goddard is a full-service product development and engineering firm specializing in the design and development of medical technology, life science and industrial products.
