Job description

Electrical Integration Leader - Devices & Controls, OMHS

Job ID: 10462248 | Amazon.com Services LLC

Amazon is seeking an Electrical Installation Lead – Low Voltage Devices & Controls to drive the successful installation, configuration, and validation of field devices and low‑voltage control systems for automation and material handling equipment across multiple greenfield and brownfield fulfillment center sites. This role provides field‑based technical leadership focused specifically on low‑voltage device installation, sensor deployment, VFD configuration, E‑stop systems, fieldbus cabling, and device commissioning readiness. The Electrical Installation Lead will directly manage installation crews responsible for all field device mounting, wiring, configuration, and validation on MHE systems. This includes photo eyes, proximity sensors, encoders, limit switches, E‑stop devices, pull cords, safety devices, scanners, VFDs, I/O blocks, zone controllers, actuators, operator stations, stack lights, and industrial communication/fieldbus cabling (Ethernet/IP, Profinet, EtherCAT, AS‑i). You will ensure devices are installed correctly, parameters set accurately, and systems ready for controls commissioning and energization. This role reports to the Site Deployment Manager and follows the Power Distribution & Infrastructure lead through each zone — your team mobilizes once conduit, panels, and heavy wire are in place. You are the last electrical installation step before controls commissioning, making precision, attention to detail, and commissioning readiness the defining measures of success.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead and manage electrical installation crews focused on low‑voltage device installation and configuration for MHE systems across North American facilities.
• Direct installation of field devices including photo eyes, proximity sensors, encoders, limit switches, E‑stop devices, pull cords, safety devices, and barcode scanners.
• Oversee VFD installation, mounting, power connections, and control wiring.
• Manage I/O block installation, wiring, and terminal connections per I/O lists and wiring diagrams.
• Direct installation of zone controllers, actuators, operator stations, and stack lights.
• Oversee E‑stop cable system installation including cable runs, tensioning, I‑bolt and pulley placement, and pull cord routing.
• Manage sensor mounting, orientation, and alignment to ensure proper detection coverage.
• Direct 24 VDC control circuit wiring, device terminations, and panel‑to‑device connections.
• Oversee fieldbus and industrial communication cabling installation (Ethernet/IP, Profinet, EtherCAT, AS‑i) with attention to routing, labeling, addressing, and termination quality.
• Manage parameter setting and programming for all field devices including dip switches, photo eye training, sensor calibration, and VFD configuration.
• Lead electrical QC activities including I/O verification—checking for shorts, breaks, stretched wires, and confirming wire labels match drawings.
• Manage E‑stop system testing and verification across all installed zones.
• Verify sensor functionality, detection ranges, and operational parameters before handoff to controls commissioning.
• Oversee side cover installation on completed conveyor sections.
• Manage electrical device punchlist identification and repair.
• Partner with controls commissioning team to validate system readiness for energization.
• Ensure cable management, wire labeling, and device labeling meet standards before zone closeout.

Technical Leadership & Standards

• Provide technical expertise for low‑voltage control systems, 24 VDC circuits, field devices, and industrial communication networks.
• Review and interpret device layout drawings, I/O lists, wiring diagrams, control panel drawings, and fieldbus addressing schedules.
• Follow and help develop device installation standards and best practices.
• Create and maintain technical documentation including device installation SOPs, configuration checklists, and QC verification procedures.
• Identify, troubleshoot, and resolve device installation issues that may impact commissioning readiness or system functionality.
• Support development of scalable installation practices and field standards across multiple sites.
• Recommend and implement process improvements to increase device installation efficiency and first‑pass quality.

Coordination & Communication

• Coordinate device installation activities with power distribution teams, mechanical installation, controls engineering, IT/network teams, and vendors.
• Manage zone sequencing with the Power Distribution & Infrastructure lead — device installation begins once conduit, panels, and wire are in place.
• Coordinate with controls commissioning on energization readiness, I/O verification results, and open items.
• Track device installation progress, risks, blockers, and quality issues, escalating when support is needed.
• Participate in project‑level technical reviews, installation readiness reviews, and commissioning readiness reviews.
• Manage relationships with device vendors, OEMs, integrators, and internal project stakeholders.
• Participate in daily business reviews with installation progress and commissioning readiness updates.
• Maintain accurate field documentation including punch lists, issue logs, QC observations, and turnover documentation.

Basic Qualifications

• Experience managing people in an engineering or supervisory role.
• Experience in a fast‑paced, automated, industrial, logistics, or manufacturing environment.
• 5+ years of industrial electrical installation, controls installation, automation deployment, or a similar technical environment.
• Experience leading or supervising electrical device installation crews, controls technicians, or field execution teams.
• Experience reading and interpreting device layout drawings, I/O lists, wiring diagrams, and control panel drawings.
• Experience with low‑voltage control systems including 24 VDC circuits, field devices, sensors, VFDs, and industrial communication networks.
• Ability to travel up to 50% domestically; travel may exceed 50% in some instances with short notice.

Preferred Qualifications

• Prior experience managing controls technicians, instrumentation technicians, device installers, or low‑voltage electricians.
• Prior experience working for a material handling integrator.
• Prior experience installing devices and sensors for conveyor or sortation systems.
• Experience with PLC I/O systems, fieldbus networks (Ethernet/IP, Profinet, EtherCAT, AS‑i), and industrial communication infrastructure.
• Experience with VFD configuration, motor parameter setting, and drive commissioning.
• Experience with E‑stop systems, safety device installation, and safety circuit validation.
• Knowledge of AutoCAD Electrical, Bluebeam, BIM 360, or equivalent drawing review software.
• Experience coordinating device installation with controls commissioning and PLC teams.
• Experience with punch list management, I/O verification procedures, and turnover documentation.
• Lean, Six Sigma, PMP, or related technical/project management certifications.
