Original job description

Description

As an Electrical Engineer on our team, you will design industrial control panels, select and integrate sensors and components, and develop electrical systems for packaging and sortation automation equipment. You will work directly in our engineering lab alongside mechanical engineers, controls engineers, and technicians to bring new automation concepts from prototype to production.

Key job responsibilities

Design industrial control panels using EPLAN, selecting and specifying components including PLCs, IPCs, motor drives, sensors, and safety devices
Research, evaluate, and select sensors, actuators, motors, and other electrical components for integration into automation systems
Perform system-level electrical design and integration, ensuring electrical subsystems work cohesively with mechanical and software components
Create wiring harness designs with connector specifications, wire routing, and cable management for prototype and production systems
Build and assemble prototype wiring harnesses and control panels in the lab, iterating quickly based on test results
Interface with industrial automation sensors, PLCs, IPCs, and fieldbus networks (EtherNet/IP, EtherCAT, IO-Link) to integrate electrical systems into complete automation platforms
Conduct electrical testing and validation using standard lab equipment including oscilloscopes, function generators, multimeters, and power supplies
Generate electrical documentation including schematics, wiring diagrams, panel layouts, and bills of materials
Collaborate with mechanical engineers on space claims, thermal management, and cable routing within machine enclosures
Support field deployment and troubleshooting of electrical systems at fulfillment centers as needed

About the team

Our Hardware Development Engineering team operates in a highly collaborative, multi-disciplinary environment working alongside software engineers, controls engineers, data scientists, reliability engineers, and operations teams. We focus on the design, prototyping, and development of packaging automation systems - from early concept through production-ready integrated systems - ensuring they meet customer experience, safety, regulatory, and business requirements before deployment. Our work spans the entire product development lifecycle - from concept generation and design down-selection through continuous improvement of deployed systems across hundreds of fulfillment centers in North America and Europe. What sets our team apart is our hands-on approach to solving complex technical challenges. We design and build custom mechanisms, develop novel automation solutions, create robust mechanical and electromechanical systems, and work directly in lab environments and fulfillment centers to bring our designs from prototype to production at scale. Our contributions directly impact Amazon's sustainability goals, operational efficiency, and the customer experience for millions of packages shipped daily.

Basic Qualifications

Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering or equivalent
• 3+ years of experience designing industrial control panels or electrical systems for automated equipment
• Experience with ECAD tools (e.g., EPLAN, AutoCAD Electrical, SolidWorks Electrical)
• Recent execution of a panel design in EPLAN (last 5 years or less).
• Experience designing wiring harnesses and specifying industrial connectors
• Experience working with PLCs, industrial sensors, and motor drives
• Hands-on experience using oscilloscopes, multimeters, and function generators
• Familiarity with the NEC and UL 508A standards for industrial control panels and the NFPA79 standard for industrial machinery
• Experience supporting equipment commissioning and troubleshooting in production or warehouse environments

Preferred Qualifications

Experience with industrial communication protocols (EtherNet/IP, EtherCAT, IO-Link, Profinet)
Experience with safety system design (safety PLCs, safety-rated devices, risk assessment per ISO 13849 or IEC 62443)
Experience building prototype wiring harnesses and control panels
Experience with IPCs and embedded computing platforms in industrial environments
Knowledge of servo systems, VFDs, and motion control applications
Experience with signal conditioning and signal interfaces
Working knowledge of EMI/EMC and radiated/conducted noise mitigation
Experience scaling a design to volume manufacturing
