Role description and purpose

Electrical Design Engineer with a keen interest in electrical / electronic design and product development to join our team based in Dundee. The ideal candidate must have experience in electrical and electronic design, have an understanding of control systems engineering, and a natural problem-solving ability.

You will work with a variety of products, including biomass cameras, electric stunning systems, acoustic and electric predator deterrents, and sea lice removal systems, all designed to improve both operational efficiency and animal welfare standards.

Reporting to the Lead Electronics Engineer and working as part of a dynamic and varied engineering team, you will provide electrical design support by preparing and checking design documentation, reviews, estimates, and schedules. You will also support the business development process by inputting into customer enquiries and product specifications.

Experience in the aquaculture, agriculture, marine, or offshore industries would be beneficial but is not essential. This role splits its time between hands-on and theoretical work; therefore, the ability to prioritise and manage your time effectively is essential.

1. Develop, review, update and modify electrical design plans and work schedules to meet project requirements.
2. Develop and maintain electrical panel schematics, controls, and systems schematics.
3. Manage and check system installations, ensuring that product specifications are met and adhere to relevant safety standards.
4. Design, update and maintain user documentation and technical files as necessary, specific to each product.
5. Provide technical support to the customer service team.
6. Design product documentation including all specifications, drawings, design calculations, user documents, technical reports, schematics, and technical support material.
7. Conduct research and development, performing diagnostics and troubleshooting equipment.
8. Maintain and build trusted relationships with key customers, clients, partners, and stakeholders.

Experience & Skills:

1. BSc in Electrical, Electronic Engineering or equivalent experience.
2. Minimum of three years' experience in the design of electro-mechanical systems.
3. Experience in PCB layout and Schematic Entry.
4. Experience in PLC/embedded-based control systems, either in ladder logic or “C” based environments.
5. Knowledge of 3-Phase supply, distribution systems, cable management, earthing and bonding designs.
6. Excellent PC, MS Office skills, coupled with bespoke programming or design software experience.
7. Experience working in complex project environments with third-party vendors and subcontractors.
8. Able to analyse data using sound statistical methodology and effectively present technical information.
9. Strong communication and interpersonal skills.
10. Willingness to work in a lab environment on system building, wiring, and assisting the Operations & Service teams.
11. Willingness to travel for on-site installation and/or survey.
12. Experience in aquaculture, agriculture, marine or offshore industries would be beneficial.
