Job summary

Ethics Infotech seeks an experienced electrical/automation engineer to design wiring layouts, SLDs, and panel drawings for industrial and commercial installations. You will plan cable routing, select materials, and ensure IEC/NEC/IE compliance while coordinating with multiple teams.

You will lead commissioning of PLC-based systems, develop HMI interfaces, configure drives, and integrate devices, with exposure to Delta PLC and Allen-Bradley/Siemens platforms.

Qualifications

• Experience in electrical design for industrial and commercial systems.
• Ability to design wiring layouts, SLDs, panel layouts, and electrical schematics.
• Capable of procurements and material selection based on load and IEC/NEC/IE rules.

Responsibilities

• Design and interpret wiring layouts, SLDs, panel layouts, and electrical schematics for industrial and commercial systems.
• Select cables based on load, voltage drop, insulation type, and application; plan cable routing and manage procurement of electrical materials.
• Ensure compliance with IEC, NEC, and Indian Electricity rules, including grounding systems, earthling requirements, and PPE usage.
• Handle single-phase and three-phase power distribution, neutral/earthling design, and load balancing.
• Oversee conduit routing, panel assembly, termination, and power/control wiring during installation.
• Prepare BOQ and load distribution charts; manage UPS, DG synchronization, inverter systems, and backup power configuration.
• Lead site supervision, installation monitoring, testing, and commissioning activities.
• Program, troubleshoot, and commission PLC-based automation systems; Delta PLC preferred; Allen-Bradley/Siemens exposure an advantage.
• Develop HMI interfaces, machine sequence logic, alarms, and interlocks; configure and commission VFDs and motion control systems.
• Integrate industrial devices with PLC-based systems (barcode scanners, weighing scales, vision cameras, RFID systems, sensors).
• Work with Modbus, Ethernet/IP, Profinet, RS-232/RS-485; design GA drawings, terminal layouts, wiring diagrams in AutoCAD Electrical.
• Select components: PLCs, HMIs, VFDs, servo drives, SMPS, safety relays, contactors, MCCBs, sensors; prepare BOMs and I/O lists.
• Conduct I/O validation, loop checking, functional testing, and customer acceptance activities.
• Support encoder-based positioning, conveyor automation, and material handling equipment integration.
• Manage industrial networking basics — Ethernet switches, IP addressing, network diagnostics, and remote machine support.
• Maintain as-built drawings, testing reports, commissioning checklists, O&M manuals, and material tracking records.
• Coordinate with Mechanical Design, Software Development, Production, Purchase, Quality, and Service teams through project execution.
• Analyze machine/electrical issues, identify root causes, and implement corrective actions.
• Drive R&D initiatives — new automation solutions and POC projects from concept to deployment.
• Lead and mentor a team of electrical/automation engineers; coordinate with vendors/contractors for execution and quality.
• Take ownership of project timelines, technical decisions, and customer-facing communication during commissioning.
