Job Description :

Trystar is at the forefront of delivering innovative power solutions, built on a foundation of safety, integrity, and customer focus. As we continue to grow and scale, we are looking for a Senior Electrical Engineer who is not only technically strong, but also a force multiplier – someone who elevates the performance of the entire team through mentorship, process improvement, and scalable engineering solutions across Trystar’s diverse product portfolio.

This position will play a critical role in developing accurate, well-defined engineering solutions for complex customer requests, ensuring that high-value custom projects move smoothly through the quoting and order process. The Senior Electrical Engineer will work closely with Sales, Applications, Engineering, and manufacturing to translate unique customer requirements into feasible, manufacturable designs while maintaining efficiency, accuracy, and standardization.

You’ll find that we’re also pushing boundaries across the country at our additional facilities in Troy, MI; Houston, TX; Merrimack, NH; Burnsville, MN; Murfreesboro, TN; Waukesha, WI; & in Montreal, Canada. Together, we are Trystar, where we power the future and nurture innovation for a brighter tomorrow.

Why Join Trystar?

  • Integrity – We’re honest, transparent, and committed to doing what’s right.
  • Customer focus – We have relentless focus on our customers and their success.
  • Right with speed – We use good judgement, make thoughtful decisions quickly, and execute them with purpose and intensity.
  • Play for each other – We’re a team. We show up for each other and we know that through teamwork we achieve greatness.
  • Champion change – We know adaptation and improvement are requirements to survive and to thrive.
  • Enjoy the journey – We create an environment where our team feels appreciated and has fun along the way.
  • In this role you will get to :

  • Design custom power distribution equipment following UL 1008, UL 508, UL 891 and UL 1558 standards.
  • Support and lead the custom quoting and order process, ensuring technical feasibility and compliance with listings, code, and customer specifications.
  • Provide electrical engineering expertise across a wide range of Trystar products, ensuring custom designs align with best practices and manufacturability.
  • Refine and document quoting processes to improve efficiency and reduce engineering cycle time for custom orders.
  • Collaborate with Sales, offering owners, application engineers, and manufacturing to bridge the gap between customer requirements and practical, buildable solutions.
  • Identify common customizations and work toward streamlining configurations to improve quoting speed and accuracy.
  • Drive impact beyond individual contributions by enabling others to move faster, make better decisions, and deliver higher-quality work.
  • Act as a technical mentor to engineers and sales team members, helping improve internal understanding of complex power distribution solutions.
  • Continuously improve processes to reduce rework, enhance design efficiency, and improve order accuracy.
  • Job Requirements : BASIC QUALIFICATIONS

  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent.
  • 7+ years of experience in electrical system design, power distribution, and quoting and order support for custom—engineered products.
  • Proficiency with electrical design software such as AutoCAD Electrical, SolidWorks Electrical, EPlan, or similar design software.
  • Ability to interpret customer specifications and site requirements to create accurate electrical solutions.
  • Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to balance customer customization with standardization for efficiency.
  • Experience defining electrical specifications and component selection for power distribution offerings including switchgear, switchboards, transfer switches, load banks, and generators.
  • Experience with creation of detailed technical product documentation to support product manufacturing, functional testing, certification testing, and customer requests.
  • Ability to specify safe and effective testing practices for powered prototype testing.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills to effectively collaborate with cross-functional teams, suppliers, and internal stakeholders.
  • Strong attention to detail and commitment to design accuracy.
  • Curiosity and initiative to explore new technologies, solve problems independently, and continuously improve designs and processes.
  • Understanding and application of electrical design best practices, including safety, manufacturability, and compliance with relevant codes and standards.
