Electrical Manufacturing Engineer II
ICON is seeking a Electrical Manufacturing Engineer to drive the development and implementation of world-class manufacturing processes for our cutting-edge construction technologies. This role is critical to ensuring our products are built safely, efficiently, and at scale, meeting the highest standards of quality, certification, and reliability. The ideal candidate will bring hands-on electrical manufacturing experience, deep process and data fluency, and cross-functional collaboration skills. You’ll work across mechanical and electrical systems, leading initiatives in quality control, process optimization, and configuration management that will shape ICON’s next generation of products. This role is based at ICON’s Austin, TX campus and will report to our Manufacturing Engineering Manager.
RESPONSIBILITIES:
Manufacturing Process & Quality
Design, implement, and optimize manufacturing processes that support scalability, efficiency, and repeatability across Titan printer and MCU production phases
Develop and manage critical quality systems—including NRTL and CE certifications—ensuring compliance with regulatory and safety standards at all manufacturing stages
Implement poka-yoke controls and data-driven approaches to process control, troubleshooting, and continuous improvement
Provide floor-level support for assembly, test, and validation activities—including hands-on root cause analysis and corrective action implementation
Electrical Assembly & Integration
Lead electrical assembly and wiring of Titan printer and MCU builds across DVT and production phases
Interpret and maintain electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, panel layouts, and connector maps
Install, route, and terminate cable harnesses, power distribution panels, and control system wiring
Coordinate with mechanical assembly teams on wire management, chassis cutouts, and interface hardware
Test & Validation
Execute Factory Acceptance Test (FAT) procedures covering electrical continuity, power-on, motor drive verification, sensor calibration, and E-stop function
Support functional checkout of 480V three-phase power distribution, 24VDC control circuits, and CAN/Ethernet network communications
Operate bench test equipment (oscilloscopes, multimeters, power analyzers, insulation testers) and interpret results
Document test results, non-conformances, and first-pass yield data in Jira and production traveler systems
Participate in failure analysis on field returns—trace root cause to component, wiring, or procedural sources
Process Documentation & Tooling
Develop and refine manufacturing electrical test fixtures, breakout boards, and harness verification jigs
Write and maintain work instructions for recurring electrical assembly tasks, written for technician execution; flag and redline discrepancies between drawings and physical builds
Manage and maintain complex Bills of Materials (BOMs), process routings, and manufacturing documentation
Collaborate with supply chain on component BOM accuracy, approved vendor lists, and incoming inspection criteria
New Product Introduction & Engineering Collaboration
Lead cross-functional NPI efforts with engineering, quality, and production teams to ensure seamless transition from prototype to full-scale production
Partner with product and process engineers to evaluate manufacturability during early design phases and standardize assembly processes across product lines
Participate in design reviews (PDR, CDR, build reviews) with a manufacturing lens—flag producibility and testability gaps
Oversee ECRs and ECOs; submit and track wiring changes while maintaining Duro BOM accuracy for electrical assemblies
Facilities, Tooling & Capacity
Contribute to facility layout planning, tooling design, capacity modeling, and equipment selection to support long-term manufacturing scalability
Support capital planning for electrical test equipment, panel fabrication, and production tooling
Team Development
Mentor and support electrical technicians during production ramp
MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS:
Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Manufacturing Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical, Industrial, or Manufacturing Engineering, or a related technical field.
5+ years of experience in manufacturing engineering or process engineering in a product-based or construction-focused environment.
Proficiency reading and interpreting electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, and panel layouts
Familiarity with VFDs, servo drives, and associated wiring practices
Understanding of wire harness fabrication, cable management, and connector termination standards
Proven experience across mechanical and electrical system manufacturing, including mobile or large-scale machinery.
Hands-on experience with welding, fabrication, and electro-mechanical assemblies.
Deep understanding of process documentation, quality standards, and configuration management practices.
Proficiency in SolidWorks or other parametric CAD tools.
Strong interpersonal and communication skills to facilitate collaboration across teams.
Ability to lift 50 lbs unassisted and support hands-on troubleshooting in a factory environment.
PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE:
Advanced data analytics skills with the ability to use metrics and statistical tools for process optimization and problem-solving.
Experience managing third-party certifications (NRTL, CE) and navigating product compliance pathways.
Demonstrated ownership of process definition and implementation in a fast-paced, iterative R&D-to-production environment.
Strong systems thinking with the ability to synthesize mechanical, electrical, and software elements into streamlined manufacturing processes.
Comfortable navigating ambiguity and shifting priorities with a flexible, solution-oriented mindset.
