Electrical Design Engineer

Podium Automation is reimagining industrial control panel manufacturing through software-enabled design and automated fabrication. We're building technology to create a new industrial supply chain - reducing lead times for critical electrical equipment from months to days. We've raised over $23M from top-tier investors including Construct Capital, Andreessen Horowitz, Transition Ventures, Sunflower Capital, Banter Capital, and SV Angel.

We are seeking a full-time electrical engineer to work across control panel design, build, and test. You will have the opportunity to work across the end-to-end process in a variety of operations from electrical design to enclosure modification through final testing.

• →

  Translate customer design requirements into build-ready UL 508A compliant electrical schematics

• →

  Build out Podium’s component database and standardized symbol library

• →

  Test, implement, and provide feedback on new software tools that help speed up the schematic creation process

• →

  Support our operations in answering technician questions and turning those questions into process improvement sprints

• →

  Support the automation of the panel build process through testing of new methods and tools, and ensuring necessary information is digitized during the design phase.

There are 4 values that all Podium employees are expected to demonstrate (albeit imperfectly):

• Win for the customer. We sit on the same side of the table as our customers - their wins are our wins. We’re building the vendor we always wished we had.

• Default to transparency. We believe in honesty, transparency, and kindness. It’s about how you get things done and not just what gets done.

• Speed is a feature. We move fast and take ownership. Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good.

• Win and lose as a team. Individuals drive inputs, teams drive outputs. We celebrate success together but aren’t afraid to fail and iterate. We own outcomes together and don’t deflect blame.

• Must have completed a 4-year degree in Electrical Engineering, MechanSystems Engineering or a related field

• 1-2 years of work experience in electrical engineering with good understanding of electrical fundamentals (AC vs DC voltage, function of overcurrent protection devices, sizing of wiring)

• Familiar with DTM, E3, EPLAN, or AutoCAD Electrical

• Available to work in-person in Brooklyn, NY (in person, 5 days/week)

• Experience working in a UL 508A panel shop or designing industrial control panels

• Mechanically inclined and experience doing light sheet metal modification work and wiring
