Entry Level

About NovaTech Automation

At NovaTech Automation, we build the hardware and software that keeps critical infrastructure running. Our products protect and control power systems across the electric utility industry – and the engineers who design them have real-world impact from day one. We're a team that values hands-on problem-solving, continuous learning, and engineers who aren't afraid to ask questions.
 

What You'll Do

As a Hardware Engineer, you'll be involved in the full lifecycle of electronic product development – from early design through testing and production support. Day-to-day, you can expect to:
  • Design and test rugged electronic products, including printed circuit boards (PCBs)
  • Troubleshoot electronic circuits and recommend corrective actions
  • Build and maintain technical documentation including schematics, bills of materials (BOMs), and test procedures
  • Work with cross-functional teams in firmware, mechanical, and manufacturing engineering
  • Support compliance testing against safety and emissions standards (UL, FCC, CE)
  • Assist with prototyping and production with contract manufacturers
Don't know every acronym above? That's okay. We'll teach you. We're looking for your foundation, curiosity, and drive – not a complete résumé.
 

What We're Looking For

Required:
  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics, or a related field (or expected graduation within 6 months)
  • Hands-on experience with hardware design, PCBs, or test equipment through coursework, labs, or personal projects
  • Familiarity with CAD tools such as AutoCAD or SolidWorks
  • Exposure to PCB design software such as Altium Designer
  • Understanding of basic power supplies, analog, and digital circuits

Nice to Have (but not required):
  • Familiarity with compliance standards such as UL or CE
  • English language proficiency at a C1 level or higher
  • Internship or co-op experience in a hardware or manufacturing environment
 

Our Values

At NovaTech, everything we do is guided by four principles: Service, Innovation, Integrity, and Teamwork. We're looking for someone who sees those not just as words on a wall, but as a way of working.
