Job DescriptionHybrid opportunity - 3 days in office/week in Cranberry Township, PA
Join a multi-disciplinary product development team that sustains and improves Omnicell's Automation hardware platforms with electromechanical content. In this role, you'll own hardware sustaining and reliability initiatives-from component selection and schematic updates to verification testing and factory support-helping keep automation systems performing safely and reliably in real-world customer environments.
Responsibilities- Drive sustaining engineering priorities to support manufacturing sites, supplier deviations, design change requests, and quality/reliability improvement projects
- Own electrical design updates for PCBAs, including requirements definition, component selection, schematic capture, design verification testing (DVT), and production functional test development
- Create and execute electrical test plans/protocols and generate test reports to confirm designs meet specifications and quality system requirements
- Perform feasibility studies for new or modified designs, selecting methods, techniques, and evaluation criteria within broadly defined practices and policies
- Lead hardware troubleshooting and root-cause investigations; propose and implement effective corrective and preventive actions
- Provide on-site support as needed (domestic and international) to evaluate field issues, support customers, and assist with new product start-up activities
- Estimate, manage, and communicate effort and status across multiple concurrent tasks
Required Knowledge & Skills- Demonstrated ability to apply electrical engineering fundamentals to practical hardware problems (troubleshooting, validation, and sustaining updates)
- Experience with schematic capture and bill of materials (BOM) creation/maintenance; familiarity with engineering change workflows is a plus
- Understanding of how off-the-shelf robotic/electromechanical components interact and connect (power, signals, grounding, and interfaces)
- Strong problem-solving skills; able to work independently on sub-assemblies while effectively multitasking across priorities
- Strong interpersonal and communication skills (verbal and written); comfortable collaborating across engineering, manufacturing, suppliers, and quality teams
- Self-starter who builds strong cross-functional relationships and assists teams in debugging complex system issues
Basic Qualifications- 2-3 years of experience in electrical engineering (robotics/electromechanical hardware experience is a plus)
- Working knowledge of PCB/PCBA development activities (schematics, component selection, BOMs, verification testing, and production test support)
- Basic familiarity with PCB design tools (e.g., Altium) or similar schematic capture/ECAD tools
- Ability to document work clearly (test plans, reports, and technical documentation) using standard productivity tools (e.g., Microsoft Office)
Preferred Qualifications- Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Robotics Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent practical experience)
- Experience supporting manufacturing or fielded products, including ECOs, supplier issue resolution, and reliability improvements
- Hands-on lab troubleshooting experience using common test equipment (e.g., oscilloscopes, DMMs, logic analyzers) and creating repeatable test setups/fixtures
Success in this Role (6-12 months)- Independently troubleshoot PCBA and system-level electrical issues from symptom to root cause using lab tools and structured problem-solving
- Deliver sustaining changes (schematic/BOM updates, ECOs, and test updates) that improve reliability, reduce repeat defects, and support manufacturing throughput
- Produce clear test plans and concise reports that communicate results, risks, and recommendations to engineering, quality, and operations stakeholders
- Collaborate effectively with cross-functional partners (manufacturing, suppliers, quality, systems/software) to resolve issues and close corrective actions
