Why is the MV ED SME role required?
• There is a critical gap in Medium Voltage (MV) Electrical Design expertise within the Product Standardization team, especially in the use of EBASE for detail design work in control circuit schematics, panel arrangements, three-line and wiring diagrams for MV products.
• The absence of this resource in this area has led us to repeatedly depend on the Product Engineering team for quality checks and technical guidance for drawing design work activities. Also, our ability to provide clear and detailed input to Hub on design work is restricted.
• This is slowing down our engineering workflow and holding up our ongoing efforts to drive standardization and reduce rework.
• Coordination gaps between the MV PE and ED teams can be addressed by having this resource collaborate holistically with our current MV PE SME to identify improvement areas (like macros) to the EBASE team.
• A dedicated role with deep EBASE design work expertise can go a long way to bridge this gap – improving quality and accelerate ongoing standardization initiatives across MV product lines.

Key Responsibilities for MV ED SME
• Serve as a trusted change advisor to engineering business stakeholders by building strong relationships and collaborating to solve complex challenges for ongoing and future R&D/Product Care projects.
• Be associated with all Product Standardization, Technical product ownership and Product Maintenance Projects.
• Provide subject matter expertise on Medium Voltage engineered products when representing the department in cross-functional projects and key meetings.
• Analyze, identify, and define standardization opportunities across various MV products and engineering platforms (EBASE).
• Lead quality assurance efforts from an Electrical Design perspective, including developing standards for block creation and promoting a consistent approach to block standardization.
• Engage in high-impact activities such as evaluating EBASE space constraints and aligning components for optimal panel arrangements for standard switchgears.
• Support ED Knowledge Database (ED KDB) development and maintenance activities as needed by the engineering teams.
• Define and implement the best practices for ED wiring teams across all MV product lines.
• Drive specific preventative actions OCNs related to Electrical Design for tasks requiring high degree of technical expertise only (R&D related).

Job Requirements:
• Intermediate English.
• Bachelor degree in Electrical Engineering.
• Ability to read, understand and evaluate electrical schematics to identify errors or potential improvements.
• Strong work ethic and willingness to do what it takes to get the job done with high quality and in a professional manner.
• Ability to work overtime and weekends as necessary.
• Proven experience with Microsoft Excel.
• Ability to multitask, managing large workloads and business demands.
• An ideal candidate is detailed orientated and able to embrace a culture of quality.

Considered a plus but not required:
• 5+ years of Electrical design/drafting experience with protection and control or engineering firms.
• Electrical design/drafting experience with Engineering Base (Microsoft Visio) and/or AutoCAD Electrical
• A Masters Degree in Electrical Engineering is a plus with extra consideration given if degree concentration is in the area of power systems.
• Familiarity with ANSI, IEEE, UL and NEMA standards for MV Switchgear.
• Experience creating and working with CAD smart blocks
• Experience with electrical design for medium voltage switchgear
• Working knowledge of standard protection and control technologies used in medium voltage power distribution products.
