The successful candidate will provide matrix leadership to assembly teams, assist engineering with system validation, and serve as the Tier 2 hardware troubleshooting support for field installation teams.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
Technical Leadership & Quality Assurance
Act as the floor-level electrical SME, providing hands-on guidance to assembly technicians and general labor during the mechanical and electrical integration of C&I BESS units.
Ensure all routing, terminations, and component installations strictly adhere to electrical codes, engineered schematics, and Lion Energy safety standards.
Intervene and correct unsafe practices or incorrect assembly methods in real-time, escalating chronic issues to production management.
Validation & Commissioning Support
Partner directly with Validation and Manufacturing Engineers to prepare C&I systems for testing.
Perform initial electrical safety checks, high-voltage terminations, and system power-ups in the facility's testing environment.
Assist in isolating and diagnosing hardware faults identified during the factory acceptance testing (FAT) phase.
Tier 2 Field Support (Hardware)
Serve as the Tier 2 escalation point for field installers encountering complex hardware, wiring, or electromechanical integration problems that cannot be resolved at the baseline installer level.
Diagnose issues related to isolation faults, breaker logic, contactor failures, and DC/AC power routing via phone, video, or field reports.
Triage and properly escalate software, firmware, and complex system-level anomalies to Tier 3 Engineering resources.
Documentation & Process Standardization
Collaborate with engineering and shop floor management to draft, review, and finalize Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for electrical assembly tasks.
Redline electrical schematics and blueprints based on floor-level realities and submit engineering change requests (ECRs) to improve manufacturability.
Facility Electrical Maintenance
Execute miscellaneous electrical tasks around the manufacturing facility as required, including
equipment tie-ins, shop power modifications, and routine electrical maintenance.
Ensure all facility electrical work is permitted (if applicable) and compliant with local codes.
