Description

At Jacobs, we do not settle - always looking beyond to raise the bar and deliver with excellence. We apply our expertise and knowledge as we look into the future with great optimism and focus. We don't settle until we give our best and know that we're making a difference.

We're looking for an Electrical Engineer who is excited about working on projects that enable the heart of our clients' business. You will have the chance to work on semiconductor manufacturing projects and other state-of-the-art industrial facilities. Join a collaborative team delivering innovative electrical designs for advanced facilities worldwide. Ideal candidate will be located in Tempe, Arizona but there is geographic flexibility for well-qualified candidates located near a Jacobs US office.

As an Electrical Engineer, you'll gain hands-on experience while taking ownership of the schedule and technical quality of your assigned tasks. You'll learn client expectations, scope, budget, and schedule, and develop the ability to recognize and communicate design changes promptly. Working closely with discipline leads and other team members, you'll help produce installation details, single-line diagrams, electrical room layouts and grounding, lighting, and power plans. You'll also provide on-site assistance during startup and coordinate activities across disciplines. This role requires expanded knowledge in electrical engineering and offers opportunities to build expertise in company processes and client standards. You'll solve straightforward problems using established procedures, receive moderate guidance, and grow into higher-level responsibilities as you develop your skills. If you're ready to learn, contribute, and advance your career in a dynamic environment, we want you on our team.

Bring your curiosity, talent for multi-tasking and collaboration, and extreme organizational skills and we'll help you grow, pursue, and fulfill what drives you - so we can make big impacts on the world, together.

• Bachelor or Master of Science degree in Electrical Engineering

• At least 3 years of Electrical Engineering experience

Ideally, you'll also have:

• Engineer in Training (EIT) certification

• Working knowledge of Revit or BIM software

• Strong communication skills both verbal and written

• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills

• Forward thinking, eager to learn best practices, and contribute with innovative ideas

• Displayed ability to learn quickly and driven to broaden knowledge base

• Ability to collaborate and work effectively in a variety of teams, including multidisciplinary teams

Description

General Scope:

The position is an opportunity to give suitably prepared candidates intensive exposure to the test engineering profession as a possible career path.  At the same time it gives Datest the opportunity to meet and evaluate eligible test engineering candidates, exposes them to our business and its activities in a hands-on, interactive way, and creates a pool of qualified candidates from which future Datest employees may be drawn.

Duties and Responsibilities:

• Expose motivated candidates to as many aspects of our business as possible over the course of an intense, 90-day summer session, or a 120-day Fall/Winter or Winter/Spring session.
• “Shadow” Datest engineers and other personnel throughout the working day in order to become familiar with their responsibilities and task.  Become conversant in the language and lexicon of PCBA testing and test engineering.
• Attend meetings with customers and key suppliers, together with other Datest personnel.
• Learn the functioning of the various principal Datest test and inspection systems (Keysight 3070, SPEA 4060, Dage Ruby, Agilent 5DX, VJT Microfocus CT System, etc.)
• Learn about and perform troubleshooting of failed PCBAs.
• Learn how to capture and interpret Xray and CT scanning images
• Learn how to read, interpret, and create a test design from a customer’s statement of work (SOW).  Learn how to distinguish what is doable in a test specification vs what is not doable.
• Learn about Quality Management Systems and their administration.
• Learn about ESD control in the workplace and associated procedures.
• Learn about workplace safety, especially around ionizing radiation (Xrays)
• Speak with customers about test-related details, problems, and challenges.

Qualifications / Skills:

• Progress toward obtaining a bachelor’s or AA degree (typically a third- or fourth-year student) from an accredited institute of higher education in an engineering or related discipline such as electrical engineering, materials science/materials engineering, mechanical engineering, biomedical engineering, physics, mathematics, or computer science.  Under certain circumstances work experience or prior training (e.g. military service) may be considered as a substitute for academic experience.  Also under certain circumstances non-STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics) candidates demonstrating exemplary interest, aptitude, and persuasive energy may be considered.  English and economics majors sometimes become test engineers; no one is excluded on account solely of their choice of major.
• Intellectual curiosity and a willingness to learn, especially about why systems work, and why they fail.  Willingness to apply problem-solving skills to system failures.
• Familiarity and comfort using Microsoft Office Suite of software
• Comfort working in a multitasking environment with shifting priorities.  Priorities often shift rapidly with changing customer requirements
• Exposure to some or all of the following, in an academic or work setting:
• Digital Systems
• Analog Systems
• Xray and CT scanning technology
• High-Level Programming Languages such as C++, Python, and Raspberry Pi
• Engineering software such as Matlab, Spice, Autocad, and Solidworks
• Imaging reconstruction and interpretive software such as Fraunhofer Volex and Volume Graphics VGStudio and VGStudio MAX
• Circuit Board Manufacture and Assembly
• Lab Tools and Instruments, such as multimeters, oscilloscopes, power supplies, waveform and function generators, breadboards, soldering irons and associated tools
• Report-writing and delivery of reports to customers. Explanation/defense of reports in certain situations (with support from Datest engineering staff)
