An Electrical Engineer plays an integral role in the semiconductor, pharmaceutical, medical device and data center industries across LotusWorks’ client facilities. Without the knowledge, skill and experience of Electrical Engineers, manufacturing facilities would not be able to ensure that their systems operate and products are produced safely as intended.
Electrical Engineers use a variety of tools and technologies to design, build, install and maintain electrical systems that power production lines and facilities. They must have a thorough understanding of electricity and its properties to ensure that their designs meet industry standards and safety regulations. Electrical Engineers also work with other professionals such as mechanical engineers, commissioning engineers and third-party vendors across manufacturing facilities.
What is the day-to-day role of an Electrical Engineer?
LotusWorks Electrical Engineers are responsible for the design, construction, and commissioning of electrical distribution systems and equipment in high-tech manufacturing and mission-critical facilities.
The daily responsibilities of an electrical engineer can include:
• Evaluating electrical systems, design and installations.
• Working with high, medium and low voltage distribution systems.
• Confirming system’s and components’ capabilities by designing testing methods and procedures.
• Testing installed systems, ensuring functionality and systems meet the designed intent.
• Providing engineering information by answering questions and requests.
• Ensure electrical systems are installed and operating in compliance with national electrical codes and state regulations.
• Collaborating with other engineering disciplines across a project.

What does it take to be an Electrical Engineer?
While communication and project management skills are important when applying for electrical engineering jobs, a solid educational and professional foundation is key. Earning an electrical engineering degree is the first step to ensuring you are prepared to work in the critical role of an electrical engineer.
Entering the field of electrical engineering means that you may not only play an important role in the development of innovative new technology but also have a profound impact on the electrical systems that everyone relies on in our everyday lives.
LotusWorks Electrical Engineers, due in part to their technical knowledge and innovative thinking, make major contributions towards increasing client facility efficiencies while at the same time maintaining system/equipment performance requirements.
If you are passionate about engineering, enjoy a challenge/problem solving, are safety conscious, and have hands-on experience working with electrical systems and other engineering disciplines you would thrive as a LotusWorks’ Electrical Engineer.
The reliable, efficient operation of our clients’ facilities and equipment requires a great deal of skill and expertise.
Electrical Engineers must stay abreast of changes in technology to provide companies with up-to-date solutions which will increase productivity and reduce costs. They also need to understand how different components interact with each other to create a functioning system. Furthermore, they must be able to troubleshoot any problems that may occur during the production process. This requires knowledge of both mechanical and electrical engineering principles. To do this effectively, Electrical Engineers often liaise with other departments within a facility such as maintenance or research and development teams.
