Electrical Design Engineer - LVAC​/Power Systems

Position: Electrical Design Engineer - LVAC / Power Systems
Location: Hove

Electrical Design Engineer – LVAC / Power Systems

Permanent | Office-Based | Engineering Environment

We’re recruiting an Electrical Design Engineer to strengthen an established engineering team working on low-voltage AC (LVAC) systems and power distribution equipment used within regulated, infrastructure-led applications.

This role is ideal for an engineer with a strong electrical background who enjoys working close to manufacture, understands standards and compliance, and wants to be involved across the full product lifecycle rather than purely desk-based design.

The Role

You’ll play a key role in the design and development of LVAC electrical systems, supporting both new product development and existing production activity.

Key responsibilities include:

Electrical design of LVAC systems, switch gear, or power distribution equipment

Producing and maintaining electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, and technical documentation

Supporting new product introduction (NPI) from concept through to production

Ensuring designs comply with IEC / BS EN standards and internal quality procedures

Supporting manufacturing, assembly, testing, and commissioning activities

Assisting with fault investigation, root cause analysis, and design improvements

Liaising with mechanical engineers, suppliers, and other internal stakeholders

Occasional site visits for meetings, investigations, or support activities

What We’re Looking For

Background as an Electrical Design Engineer or electrically biased Electro-Mechanical Engineer

Proven experience working with LVAC / low-voltage electrical systems

Exposure to switch gear, control panels, or power distribution equipment

Experience producing electrical schematics and wiring documentation

Understanding of engineering standards and compliance (IEC / BS EN)

Comfortable supporting designs through manufacture and production

Qualifications

HNC / HND or Degree in Electrical Engineering (or equivalent experience)

Desirable (Not Essential)

Rail or infrastructure project exposure

Experience in regulated or safety-critical industries

Knowledge of testing, commissioning, or fault-finding

Experience working in mixed electrical / mechanical engineering teams

Why Apply?

Join a technically focused team with strong engineering depth

Work on real-world LVAC systems, not consultancy-only design

Long-term, stable permanent role

Opportunity to influence designs from concept to manufacture
