Original job description

Pettibone seeks an **Electrical Engineer **to join their Engineering team in Baraga, Michigan.

If you like designing systems that actually move, lift, haul, and work hard in the real world, this is a great role. You'll support rugged, mobile, heavy equipment used in industries like forestry, rail, recycling and scrap handling, construction, biomass, and oil and gas. In other words: this is not theoretical engineering. This is hands-on, practical, "make the machine work better" engineering.

WHAT WE OFFER.

  • Competitive salary aligned with your experience and qualifications.
  • Medical, dental, vision and prescription drug coverage (employee and family plans available).
  • Health Savings Account and Flex Spending Account.
  • Company paid short-term and long-term disability insurance.
  • 401(k) retirement plan with up to 4% company match.
  • Employee Assistance Program.
  • Paid time off (vacation, sick, holidays, and volunteer time---just to name a few).
  • Full-time position with schedule flexibility (M-F 8am-4:30pm, or a flexible 4-day/10-hour schedule).
  • Great onboarding and training program.
  • A safe, team-oriented, fun work environment.

WHAT YOU'LL DO. You'll design, develop, improve, and support electrical and control systems for off-road vehicles and mobile heavy equipment.

  • Design and maintain electrical and control system designs across product lines.
  • Develop electrical systems for off-road vehicles and mobile equipment.
  • Lead electrical & control system projects while managing cost, timelines, and coordination across teams.
  • Select components, build system models, generate BOMs, complete risk assessments, and troubleshoot issues.
  • Analyze drawings, specs, documentation, models, and test results to make sure designs meet engineering standards and vehicle performance needs.
  • Lead design reviews to ensure systems are practical, reliable, manufacturable, and built to spec.
  • Develop performance specifications, test plans, procedures, and calibration methods.
  • Support prototype builds, field testing, and validation of electrical and control system performance.
  • Help internal teams, dealers, and end users in resolving electrical and control system issues.
  • Drive continuous improvement and help shape the electrical/control system strategy for future products.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR. We're looking for someone who is technically strong, practical, organized, and comfortable working with people across the business.

  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or Electrical Engineering Technology required.
  • 3 or more years of Electrical Engineering experience required.
  • Experience with electrical and control system design, development, and troubleshooting required.
  • Experience with mobile equipment, forestry, or mining equipment preferred.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills.
  • Strong working knowledge of MS Office, SolidWorks, Parker IQAN, and Zuken E3 Wireworks preferred.
  • Our electrical systems are 12 VDC and 480 VAC; experience with 12 Volt DC is a plus.
  • Ability to travel occasionally, including overnight travel, as needed.
