Job Summary

The primary objective of this role is to carry out the design engineering for the development of Low Voltage (LV) Circuit Breakers / Switches and associated accessories. The role focuses on delivering innovative, cost-effective, and standards-compliant (IEC..) solutions tailored to customer-specific technical and market requirements. The candidate will be actively involved in all phases of the product development lifecycle, from concept through to production readiness.

Responsibilities

- Design and develop LV electrical distribution products in alignment with technical specifications and market needs.

- Lead the end-to-end product development process including design, prototyping, testing, documentation, and manufacturing readiness.

- Apply hands-on expertise in LV products such as MCCBs / ACBs / switches as well as accessories.

- Improve thermal performance, electrical life, short circuit performance of product.

- Use good understanding of current density, contact buttons, venting, and arcing for product improvement.

- Improve based on observations graphs generated during testing.

- Conduct detailed engineering analysis using design fundamentals and tools (e.g., material strength, tolerance stack-up, mechanism design).

- Utilize 3D CAD software (e.g., Pro/ENGINEER)



for complex design feasibility studies and modeling.

- Demonstrate robust knowledge of manufacturing processes and tooling for both metallic and plastic components.

- Perform Design for Manufacturing (DFM) and Design for Assembly (DFA) evaluations, recommending alternative materials and production methods.

- Conduct design for reliability robustness.

- Apply six sigma requirements like QFD, DFMEA, P-Diagram

- Manage prototype development, build, and testing activities.

- Conduct root cause analysis and implement corrective actions for design issues.

- Collaborate with cross-functional teams including manufacturing, sourcing, finance, marketing, and suppliers to ensure design validation and production readiness.

- Define carry out product qualification as well as validation testing.

- Support certification testing as per IEC testing (IEC 60947) using knowledge of standard, test procedure acceptance criteria.

- Root cause analysis in case of failure.

- Maintain and update comprehensive product documentation including drawings, BOMs, and design guidelines.

- Develop and update product documentation including drawings, BOMs and design guides.

- Product release in PDM softwares.

Qualifications

- Bachelor's degree (B.E./B.Tech)



preferred; Masters (M Tech or equivalent) in Electrical / Electrical Electronics Engineering.

- 6 to 10 years of experience in the design and development of low voltage electrical distribution devices / circuit breakers.

- Proven expertise in product design, production engineering, and value engineering.

- Understanding of current density benchmarking, design philosophy of arcing, venting, contact system etc.

- Understanding of product testing as per IEC 60947.

- Knowledge of test procedures, acceptance criteria.

- Ability to analyze graphs bring inference out of testing.

- Knowledge of LV circuit breakers (ACB / MCCB), product costing, and quality standards.

- Knowledge on circuit breaker sub systems design including mechanism, current path, arcing, venting etc.

- Understanding of manufacturing processes such as molding, casting, and assembly, including tooling design.

- Proficient in CAD/CAE tools (e.g., Pro/ENGINEER) and mechanism design with dimension chain analysis.

- Basic project management capabilities.

- Good communication and interpersonal skills; and collaborate with global stakeholders.

- Self-motivated, analytical, and solution-oriented with a positive and persuasive approach.

- Familiarity with Agile methodologies is an added advantage.
