Sobre este puesto de Senior Electrical Automation Engineer en Layup

Layup · Presencial · Huntington Beach, CA

At Layup Parts, we're developing the technology that will build the future. 

We're a manufacturing technology company replacing months of lead time with days, using proprietary software, automation, and advanced manufacturing systems built for speed. Our customers are inventing what's next, in aerospace, defense, robotics, and beyond. To keep up with them, manufacturing has to change. That's what we're building. 

We're looking for a Senior Electrical Automation Engineer to set the direction for how electrical engineering is done at Layup. You'll own the electrical architecture across our factory, from the standards and components every team builds on to the power and load planning behind each new machine. This is a senior, hands-on, systems-level role rooted in industrial equipment and industrial automation, spanning industrial controls, control panels and enclosures, wiring and harnessing, production machinery, and robotic systems. 

You'll be the electrical lead for our factory automation, robotics, and facilities teams, and you'll manage the outside vendors who build our enclosures and harnesses. You'll also spend real time on the production floor, leading the deployment and integration of new equipment and directing technicians to get it running. We're looking for someone who can think at the architecture level and still pick up a meter when it counts. 

What You'll Do

  • Own Layup's electrical architecture and set the standards for how we design, document, and build electrical systems across the company. 
  • Be the electrical partner for our factory automation and robotics teams, defining panel requirements, component specs, and drawings for their equipment. 
  • Work with facilities on power budgets, load planning, and machine placement as we grow the factory. 
  • Manage our enclosure and harness vendors, taking designs from build package through fabrication and delivery. 
  • Lead hands-on deployment, integration, and commissioning of new equipment and robotic systems. 
  • Direct and mentor our electrical technicians, helping them grow while keeping work moving. 
  • Serve as the go-to person for tough electrical problems and make sure our designs meet NEC, NFPA 79, and UL 508A. 
  • What We're Looking For

  • Be awesome! Be the kind of person you want to work with! 
  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field. 
  • 5+ years designing, building, and deploying electrical systems for industrial machinery, automation, or robotics. This role is focused on industrial equipment, so building, MEP, or civil power backgrounds won't be a fit. 
  • Deep experience designing industrial control panels and power distribution. 
  • Experience working with panel or harness vendors and coordinating equipment installs with facilities. 
  • Fluency in ECAD tools (EPLAN, AutoCAD Electrical, or similar) and the relevant electrical codes. 
  • Strong communication skills and the ability to bring multiple teams together around shared standards. 
  • A bias toward getting hands-on and taking ownership from initial problem through working solution. 
  • Bonus Points

  • Experience building an EE function or standards program at a growing company. 
  • Experience with PLCs, motion control, safety systems, and industrial networks like EtherCAT, EtherNet/IP, or PROFINET. 
  • Experience integrating industrial robots (FANUC, ABB, KUKA, Universal Robots, or similar). 
  • Experience with arc-flash studies or power quality analysis.
