What You’ll Do

We're looking for an Electrical Engineer early in their career who wants to own the electrical, mechanical, safety, and firmware quality of Vention's most complex, high-value products — including the Rapid Series Applications and other turnkey electromechanical automation applications. They will inspect and validate fully integrated automation cells, and author the inspection and test protocols that other electromechanical products — motors, controllers, drives, modules — are checked against. This is a hands‑on role for someone who likes to get the wiring, the safety circuit, and the firmware exactly right, and then document how it should be done every time.



This role demands a strong blend of mechanical and electrical competency, the ability to validate complex multi‑discipline BOMs, electrical and assembly drawings, and the judgement to validate fully integrated automation systems before they are shipped to customers globally.

- Validate complete electromechanical systems before shipment: Conduct outgoing quality control (OQC) on integrated Rapid Series cells — verifying wiring routing, power distribution, pneumatics, structural integrity, and overall workmanship against electrical and assembly drawings.
- Verify safety circuits to spec: Validate E-stop continuity, safety relays, and laser area scanner configuration, including safety‑rated zone limitation and stopping‑distance behavior, so each system performs as designed in fenceless and fenced layouts.
- Confirm firmware and software readiness: Power up controllers and robot arms, confirm they communicate across the system, verify the correct firmware is flashed and interfaces are functional, and validate that the Palletizer MachineApp loads and operates as intended.
- Verify multi‑discipline BOMs and configuration: Confirm controllers, drives, safety equipment, grippers, conveyors, and accessories are the correct revision, correctly installed, and correctly configured.
- Author inspection & test protocols: Develop,



document, and maintain the inspection and functional test procedures for other electromechanical products — motors, controllers, modules, and sub‑assemblies — so quality is repeatable and traceable across the product line.
- Perform mechanical & structural checks: Validate fit, form and function of mechanical components using tools such as calipers, torque wrenches, and squares.
- Manage non‑conformances: Identify and document non‑conforming products, raise NCRs, and create ECNs when a design change is required, communicating findings for timely disposition with suppliers.
- Maintain records & traceability: Keep accurate inspection, test‑result, and component‑traceability records in the ERP / quality management system.
- Care for test equipment: Ensure inspection and electrical test tools are assigned, calibrated, and maintained.
- Drive continuous improvement: Recommend process improvements and contribute to root‑cause analysis and corrective actions.
- Support cross‑functionally: Work with Engineering, Integration, Production, Procurement, and Reliability to resolve technical and supplier issues.

What You Bring to the Table

- Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering (or a DEC in Automated Manufacturing / Electromechanical Technology with relevant experience).
- 1–3 years of experience in quality, test, controls, or validation of electromechanical assemblies or integrated automation systems.
- Solid ability to read and interpret wiring schematics, multi‑discipline BOMs, assembly drawings, and system‑level specifications.
- Hands‑on electrical validation skills: m
