Descrição da oferta de emprego

Mitsubishi Heavy Industries America, Inc. (MHIA) is looking for a Principal Electrical Engineer-Chillers to join our team. This is a hybrid role based out of our Plano, Texas location.

ABOUT MITSUBISHI HEAVY INDUSTRIES AMERICA, INC. (MHIA):

For over 130 years, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) Group’s innovative and integrated solutions have demonstrated our commitment to creating a positive social impact around the globe. Our range of products and services is tailored to meet our customers’ evolving needs across the commercial aviation, energy, transportation and infrastructure, machinery, defense, and space systems sectors.

Our culture embraces diversity and cooperation, and we promote a healthy balance of professional and personal development, ensuring that your ideas and expertise are valued and respected.

SCOPE:

The Principal Electrical Engineer - Chillers serves as the U.S. electrical engineering hub for centrifugal chiller design at MHIA-DCEM. This role connects Japan-based design teams with U.S. standards and certification bodies, customers, and partners. Rather than owning end-to-end detailed design alone, the engineer accelerates execution of estimating and design by technically translating U.S. requirements into actionable design inputs, preventing compliance-driven rework, and owning cross-system interfaces, change control, and verification and validation readiness. This role will enable effective customer proposals, timely technical responses, and long-term leadership of U.S. electrical engineering operations as a technical bridge between customers and the Japan-based MTH design organization across quotation, design execution, and change control. This position collaborates with global stakeholders across Japan and the U.S. to align priorities, enable effective execution, and support MHIA’s long-term business objectives.

JOB RESPONSIBILITIES:

• Translate U.S. electrical and safety compliance requirements (UL, NEC, IEEE, and related standards) into clear quotation specifications and detailed design.
• Lead electrical engineering activities from customer requirement intake through quotation/estimating specifications and detailed design.
• Convert customer requirements into quotation specifications and coordinate electrical design execution with Japan-based MTH design teams.
• Establish and maintain electrical interface specifications (ICDs) and clear scope and responsibility definitions across subsystems.
• Own and operate electrical change control across the quotation and design phase to prevent unmanaged changes and design drift.
• Embed certification, compliance, and verification and validation (V&V) requirements into electrical design deliverables and FAT and SAT documentation.
• Serve as the primary electrical technical interface with U.S. customers, system integrators, and key suppliers.
• Lead U.S. standards, certification, and authority-having-jurisdiction (AHJ) engagements for next-generation and derivative products, including submission packages, technical inquiries, and corrective actions.
• Act as the electrical technical representative during FAT, installation, commissioning (SAT), and early-life issue resolution, coordinating root-cause analysis and design updates with Japan-based teams.
• Contribute to the development of U.S.-relevant electrical design rules and standard architectures.
• This list of responsibilities is not all-inclusive, and an employee may be required to perform other relevant duties as assigned.

MINIMUM REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS:

• Education: Bachelor’s degree or higher in Electrical Engineering, Controls Engineering, or a related discipline, or equivalent practical experience.
• Experience: minimum of twelve (12) years of related experience with at least seven (7) years leading electrical engineering project scope across quotation, design execution, and change management phases for industrial or packaged equipment.
• Demonstrated ability to translate regulatory and standards requirements into electrical engineering specifications, design documentation, and quotation inputs.
• Hands‑on experience with industrial electrical systems, including power distribution, protection, control panels, VFDs, and instrumentation, with the ability to assess design implications and trade‑offs.
• Ability to review and technically judge electrical documentation such as single‑line diagrams (SLDs), panel layouts, wiring diagrams, and I/O documentation.
• Strong fundamentals in engineering execution, including requirement definition, issue and risk management, technical decision‑making, and configuration/change control.
• Ability to act as a technical interface with customers and to coordinate effectively with Japan‑based design teams in a cross‑cultural environment.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS:

• Experience supporting UL certification, NEC compliance, and interactions with NRTLs and AHJs for U.S.-market industrial equipment.
• Background in centrifugal chillers, large HVAC equipment, rotating machinery, or other complex packaged industrial systems.
• Experience supporting quotation, engineering, FAT, SAT, field commissioning, and feedback of field issues into electrical design.
• Experience developing or maintaining standard electrical architectures, design rules, and configurable options to support repeatable design and quotation activities.
• Familiarity with production and test readiness activities for manufacturing environments.
• Professional Engineer (PE) license or relevant professional certifications.

WORKING CONDITIONS:

• Travel: 25%
• Standard Monday through Friday work week. Weekend/late-night work if applicable.
• Lifting/physical requirements: Regularly required to sit for long periods, stand, walk, talk, and/or hear. Frequently lift and/or move up to 10 pounds and occasionally lift and/or move up to 25 pounds

Why Should You Apply?

• Excellent Benefits (Medical, Dental, Vision & 401K Matching)
• Excellent growth and advancement opportunities
• Paid vacation, sick time, and 15 holidays
• Committed to quality products and services.
• Great working environment and culture
