Electrical Engineer
AMETEK · Keene
Precitech designs and manufactures ultra precision machining solutions for freeform diamond turning, milling, and grinding which are used to produce optical lenses, mold inserts, mirrors, and precision mechanical components. Our machines produce rotationally symmetric, asymmetric, freeform, and sculpted geometries with form tolerances in the sub-micron range and nanometer surface finishes.
The Electrical Engineer will manage and direct the design and specification of wiring lists, schematic and circuit boards, and controls components for use in ultra precision, computer numerically controlled, machine tools. Collaborate and partner with various internal teams to deliver and support products in the field, including marketing/product managers, application engineering teams, manufacturing teams, and service teams.
Primary and secondary responsibilities will include:
- Conceptualize and engineer new, unique electrical systems that meet customer requirements.
- Represent panel layouts, schematics, wire run lists and assembly procedures using CAD systems and documentation such as Bill of Materials, specifications, and routing instructions.
- Troubleshooting electrical noise and transients, controllers, servo systems, PMAC (programmable Multi-Axis Controller) or other sophisticated electronic equipment.
- Perform engineering changes according to standard procedures with extreme attention to detail of the design, how the engineering changes will affect disposition of past, present and future effected products, and documentation.
- Actively participate in product design reviews and work directly with the engineering staff to develop cost effective solutions.
- Contribute to written instruction and operation manuals for Precitech's products.
Qualifications:
- Bachelor’s degree with 2+ years of work experience or Master's degree with 1+ years of work experience in Electrical Engineering.
- Experience using electrical equipment such as signal generator, multimeter, oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzer.
- General programming knowledge is desired: C, C++, or similar.
- Experience in data acquisition, analog and digital signal processing.
- Experience with amplifiers, filters, encoders, motion controllers, and feedback loops.
- Experience using Matlab in modeling, data analysis and simulations.
- Strong communication, presentation and negotiation skills are needed.
- Excellent problem-solving skills through structured approach and solution generation in a timely manner.
- Travel to customer sites up to 10% of the time.
