  • Apply project specifications, customer standards, and Automated Logic engineering standards to hardware design work.
  • Develop hardware designs that align with sequences of operation, installation requirements, commissioning needs, and overall system functionality.
  • Coordinate with software engineers, graphics engineers, project managers, and field personnel to ensure hardware designs support successful project execution.
  • Create and maintain accurate submittal documentation, incorporating project revisions, addenda, and field-directed changes.
  • Perform quality reviews of engineering deliverables prior to release to ensure completeness, accuracy, and compliance with project requirements.
  • Maintain clear communication and proactive expectation setting with supervisors and project teams.


Customer and Departmental Standards
  • Adhere to project requirements, company standards, customer standards, and applicable safety expectations in all aspects of design and documentation.
  • Produce organized, accurate, and professional engineering deliverables that support successful installation, programming, graphics, and commissioning.
  • Communicate technical questions, project risks, design concerns, and workload constraints in a timely manner.


Department Process Improvement
  • Follow established engineering processes and make suggestions for improvement as experience grows.
  • Support consistency in hardware engineering standards, templates, and design practices.
  • Participate in lessons learned and continuous improvement discussions.


Company Directives
  • Ensure all Automated Logic organizational safety and ethics standards are met.
  • Uphold a high regard for employee and subcontractor safety.
  • Exemplify the Carrier code of ethics in all professional conduct.
  • Other duties as assigned.
