Senior Electrical Engineer – Motors & Generators | Electromechanical | RCFA

Location - Cleveland, Ohio (On-site) | + Minimal Travel

If your background is in electric motors, generators, or rotating equipment, this is not just another generic Electrical Engineering role.

You’ll work on real-world failures, diagnostics, and engineering solutions—not just design work on paper. This role sits at the center of motor repair, coil manufacturing, and reliability engineering, where your decisions directly impact critical operations.

What you’ll be doing

  • Diagnose and resolve failures in electric motors and generators
  • Perform root cause failure analysis (RCFA) and contribute to FMEA-driven improvements
  • Reverse engineer stator windings, coils, and insulation systems
  • Support motor repair, rewind, and coil manufacturing operations
  • Develop and improve repair processes, work instructions, and training programs
  • Ensure compliance with IEEE, NEMA, and IEC standards
  • Partner with customers and internal teams to deliver technical solutions and support
  • Drive continuous improvement across quality, reliability, and performance

What we’re looking for

Must-have experience:

  • 5+ years working with electric motors, generators, or rotating equipment
  • Bachelors or Masters Degree in Electrical Engineering
  • Hands-on experience with motor repair, maintenance, diagnostics, or design
  • Strong knowledge of stator windings, coils, and insulation systems
  • Experience with RCFA, FMEA, or failure analysis
  • Ability to troubleshoot using electrical test equipment

Nice to have:

  • Experience with motor rewind or coil manufacturing
  • Background in traction motors or heavy industrial equipment
  • Experience in electromechanical services or OEM environments

The sort of experience we're looking for will be based around:

Electric Motors • Generators • Stator • Windings • Rewind • Coil Design • RCFA • FMEA • Rotating Equipment • Diagnostics • Electromechanical • Motor Repair

What's in it for you?

  • Salary: $100K–$130K + bonus
  • Exposure to complex, high-impact engineering challenges
  • Opportunity to influence engineering standards and repair quality
  • Work across the full lifecycle: failure → analysis → solution → implementation
  • A collaborative, hands-on engineering environment

About the company

We are a leading provider of electromechanical and power management solutions, supporting critical infrastructure across industries including energy, manufacturing, and transportation.

Our work ensures reliability where downtime isn’t an option.

You should apply if:

You’ve worked on motors or generators in the real world—not just academically—and want a role where your expertise actually drives outcomes.

Just so we're clear:

This role is best suited for engineers with hands-on experience in motors and/or generators or rotating equipment.

If your background is primarily in:

  • Power systems (utilities)
  • Electronics / PCB design
  • Software / controls only

…it might not be the right fit for you.
