3D Printing • Aerospace • Defense • Manufacturing
We offer the fastest composite prototyping service in the world, with frictionless quoting and online checkout.
The Role
Designs, maintains, troubleshoots, and improves electrical systems for manufacturing equipment, robotic systems, and factory operations. Responsibilities include specifying components, designing cabinets and wiring, building and bringing up systems, collaborating with robotics and controls teams, coordinating fabrication vendors, and establishing electrical design standards. The role is highly hands-on and requires frequent production-floor problem solving.
Summary Generated by Built In

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, robotics, 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 an Electrical Engineer to help us build the next generation of manufacturing equipment while owning the electrical systems that keep our production floor running. This is a hands-on, systems-level role working across industrial controls, electrical cabinets, wiring and harnessing, production equipment, and robotic systems. 

You'll work closely with our robotics, controls, mechanical, manufacturing, and facilities teams to troubleshoot equipment, improve existing machines, and design electrical systems for new projects. We're looking for someone who wants to work directly with physical systems, not just design at a desk, and is comfortable getting on the production floor to diagnose problems and build solutions

What You'll Work On

    • Own and maintain electrical systems across production equipment, robotic systems, and other equipment on the factory floor. 

    • Troubleshoot electrical and electromechanical issues and drive problems through to resolution. 

    • Specify electrical components and hardware for equipment upgrades, new machines, and robotics projects. 

    • Design industrial electrical cabinets, control panels, wiring diagrams, and harnesses for new and existing equipment. 

    • Work with cabinet and harness vendors to take designs through fabrication, assembly, and implementation. 

    • Build, wire, modify, and bring up electrical systems in-house when needed. 

    • Partner with robotics and controls engineers on robotics, industrial controls, sensors, actuators, and other factory robotics. 

    • Support electrical needs across production and facilities as we expand and bring new equipment online. 

    • Help establish standards and best practices for electrical design, documentation, component selection, and maintainability across our factory. 

What We're Looking For

    • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related engineering discipline. 

    • 1+ years of professional experience working with physical electrical or electromechanical systems. Exceptional early-career candidates with significant hands-on project experience will also be considered. 

    • Strong hands-on electrical skills and comfort working directly with equipment, wiring, harnesses, sensors, motors, and other hardware. 

    • Experience designing, building, troubleshooting, or integrating electrical systems at a system level. 

    • Ability to read and create electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, and technical documentation. 

    • Strong engineering fundamentals and the ability to troubleshoot complex problems methodically. 

    • Comfortable working in a fast-moving production environment and collaborating across electrical, mechanical, software, manufacturing, and operations teams. 

    • A bias toward getting hands-on and taking ownership from initial problem through working solution. 

Bonus Points

    • Experience with industrial controls, factory robotics, or robotics systems. 

    • Experience designing industrial control cabinets or electrical panels. 

    • Experience with mechatronic systems, PLC-controlled equipment, motors, drives, sensors, or industrial communications. 

    • Experience designing or building wiring harnesses. 

    • Experience working with cabinet, harness, or electrical fabrication vendors. 

    • Formula SAE, Baja SAE, robotics teams, or similarly hands-on engineering project experience. 

    • Experience supporting manufacturing or production equipment in an industrial environment. 

    • Being awesome! Be the kind of person you want to work with! 

Skills Required

  • Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or a related engineering discipline
  • At least 1 year of professional experience with physical electrical or electromechanical systems
  • Strong hands-on electrical skills involving equipment, wiring, harnesses, sensors, motors, and hardware
  • Experience designing, building, troubleshooting, or integrating electrical systems at the system level
  • Ability to read and create electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, and technical documentation
  • Strong engineering fundamentals and methodical complex-problem troubleshooting ability
  • Ability to work in a fast-moving production environment and collaborate across technical teams
  • Experience with industrial controls, factory robotics, or robotics systems
  • Experience designing industrial control cabinets or electrical panels
  • Experience with mechatronic systems, PLC-controlled equipment, motors, drives, sensors, or industrial communications
  • Experience designing or building wiring harnesses
  • Experience working with cabinet, harness, or electrical fabrication vendors
  • Formula SAE, Baja SAE, robotics teams, or similar hands-on engineering project experience
  • Experience supporting manufacturing or production equipment in an industrial environment
