Generic Job Summary:  A brief synopsis of the role; this summary is intended to describe all employees at Vertiv who perform this work.  Your HRBP can provide the Job Architecture description if needed. 

At Vertiv, the product development engineering function develops market-leading technologies based upon voice-of-customer input and industry trends.

 

As an Electrical Engineer, you will understand Vertiv’s unique approach to power distribution and switching product design to develop new products and custom solutions for our customers.

 

You will collaborate with project management, offering management, firmware engineering, and test engineering teams around the globe to develop and launch new products.  As part of the product life cycle, you will support and maintain the product design.

Our ideal candidate is a highly driven, self-motivated individual who will bring an ability to meet aggressive timelines and be comfortable working with other functional roles to gain the inputs required for their work. You should enjoy working in an engineering lab developing and testing new designs.

 

This role takes product requirements and converts them to technical specifications for printed circuit board (PCB) and control firmware development. The role looks holistically at the full control system to ensure optimized intra-system communication and control. This role is a mix of PCB specification, PCB schematic development, PCB layout design, and system engineering to develop new and maintain/update control platforms. The engineer will work closely with other PCB designers, firmware developers, and test associates to validate the design output through peer reviews and lab testing.

 

Business Unit Job Summary:  A brief synopsis of the role for this set of work.   This summary can include details about products, regions, scope and other details unique to a GBU, department or position.

The PCB/Controls System Engineer will work on Static Transfer Switch (STS) and Power Distribution (PDU) products to help develop next-generation control and monitoring systems.
