Description

CLX Engineering needs skilled Panel Builder II’s to join our manufacturing team. This role is critical in assembling, wiring, and troubleshooting high-quality electrical control panels. Candidates in this position are expected to demonstrate a growing awareness of project timelines and budgets and contribute to successful project delivery through technical skill and attention to detail.

What You Will Be Doing

This is not an entry-level or "learn as you go" position. Candidates must have the ability to independently read electrical schematics and fully wire a panel based on the provided prints with very limited supervision.

Panel Assembly and Wiring

Assemble electrical control panels in accordance with schematics and layout drawings, with attention to UL508A standards.

Wire panel components using standard wiring practices, including correct wire color coding and associated protections.

Perform precise tasks such as stripping, cutting, labeling, and terminating wires.

Install necessary brackets and hardware during panel construction.

Troubleshooting and Testing

Conduct functional tests to verify performance and reliability of assembled panels.

Identify and resolve most wiring or assembly issues independently.

Begin marking up and revising electrical prints as needed to reflect accurate design updates.

Collaborating with team members from CAD, Controls Engineering, and Project Management.

Tool Proficiency and Workplace Management

Use hand and power tools safely and effectively.

Maintain a clean and organized workspace that supports safety and production efficiency.

Project Management Awareness

Work with attention to established project timelines and budgets.

Collaborate with team members and supervisors to ensure high-quality results.

Adherence to Standards

Begin applying UL508A standards in construction tasks.

Read and understand equipment manuals to ensure accurate installation and operation of components.

Our Panel Builder II's are non-exempt hourly paid employees reporting to the Manager, Manufacturing & Facilities. CLX’s benefits package is excellent and includes health, 401K retirement savings, three weeks paid time off, and eight holidays.
