SSOE is looking for an Electrical Design Engineer with strong AutoCAD (2D) experience to design Schematics with power and interconnects, grounding, perform arc flash calculations, cable trays or wireway sizing, for the semiconductor/chip manufacturing industry. This group performs high volume and turns around packages quickly to meet schedules. The Design Engineer / Designer will perform design as well as help build a team locally to support design remotely by coaching and working with other designers and engineers in local office.

Responsbilities

•  Design Tool Installation packages. Packages to include Schematics, Facility Data information, General Routing, and Details.
• Create Schematic to show tool components (Fab / Subfab) design power, interconnect routing, size cable tray or wireway for interconnects, size conduits, circuits.
• Develop Fab/Subfab partial plans for electrical routing and elevation details as required.
• Create custom details as required.
• Calculate conductor/cable sizes, device overcurrent protective device (OCPD) rating, equipment grounding conductor size for all Power and Class 1 circuits as per NEC requirements.
• Calculate the Grounding Electrode Conductor (GEC) size per Tool Install Design Standards for separately derived systems (e.g., transformers). Evaluate and Calculate voltage drop, available fault current, and Arc Flash calculation for each facility panel power circuit.
• Calculate conductor/cable/bundle fill as per NEC requirements for each raceway and cable tray. Ensure circuit grouping meets NEC separation requirements.
• Evaluate wire bending space within wireway. Ensure that maximum conductor/cable size within the wireway meets UL 870 requirements.
• Calculate storage box/ storage tray sizes for excess cable storage.
