Electrical Design Engineer

An Electrical Design Engineer is a professional who develops electrical systems such as alarms and lighting. They investigate new buildings' electrical requirements to supply them best. They sometimes consult with manufacturers of refurbished appliances to analyze how to get them to work correctly and safely.

Some titles for Electrical Design Engineer are:

• Controls Engineer: Controls Engineers are critical to plant operations. They are necessary for many industries, and their work may necessitate Electronics, Mechanics, and Engineering knowledge.
• Maintenance Technician: A Maintenance Technician is in charge of building upkeep, such as an apartment complex or a business office. They are knowledgeable in various fields, such as plumbing, carpentry, and electrical systems.
• Electrical Instrument Technician: An Instrument and Electrical Technician inspects the performance and stability of all production and Manufacturing equipment to ensure operational efficiency.

Some roles and responsibilities needed for Electrical Design Engineer are:

• Establishing design criteria and developing system designs from concept plans, interpreting information outlined in the basis of creation, and data gathered from users, project partners, field surveys, and code research to plan and design projects.
• Planning and creating drawings for production work, including problem analysis and design layout; the project team performs various phases of planning, site evaluations, analytical designs, report preparation, specifications, proposal and construction documentation.
• Creating electrical schematics, grid plan layouts, electrical power systems, lighting systems, protection and controls, and site and facility design, as well as executing various electrical projects using prescribed methods and standard techniques such as drawing sequence and presentation.

The qualification for Electrical Design Engineer are:

• Should have a bachelor's in electrical engineering, computer science or a related technical area.
• Prior experience working in electrical design for distribution/power

The field of Electrical Design Engineering is expanding. It pays well and provides numerous opportunities for professional advancement, and the demand for new Electrical Engineers is increasing steadily, especially with the skyrocketing power consumption. One can start as Electrical Design Engineer and progress as a Senior Electrical Engineer, Project Manager, and eventually, one can achieve the position of Vice President of Engineering. Some alternate jobs for Electrical Design Engineer are:

• Electrical Designer: Creates innovative electrical designs for various projects.
• Electrical Project Engineer: Leads the execution and management of electrical projects.
• Application Engineer: Develops and implements applications for various engineering purposes.
• Hardware Engineer: Designs and develops hardware components for electronic systems.
• Engineering Specialist: Provides specialized expertise in specific engineering fields.
• Engineering Supervisor: Oversees and manages a team of engineers to ensure successful project completion.
• Power Engineer: Designs and implements power systems for various applications.
• Electronic Design Engineer: Designs and develops electronic components and circuits.
• Director Of Electrical Engineering: Leads and manages electrical engineering activities within an organization.
• Engineering Consultant: Provides expert advice and guidance on engineering projects and issues.
• System Design Engineer: Designs and develops complex systems for various engineering applications.
• Engineering Technician: Assists engineers in the design, development, and testing of engineering projects.

With rising electricity consumption and electrification, there is a greater need for new Electrical Engineers. According to the most recent industry report published by Indian Express, India's Electrical equipment Manufacturing market (valued between $48 and $50 billion) is expected to grow at a 12% annual rate before reaching $72 billion by 2025.
According to career forecasts, the number of Electrical and Electronics Engineers employed in 2016 will rise by 7% to 345,800 by 2026. As a result, there would be 21,200 more job openings in total. If we only consider Electrical Engineers, there were 188,300 positions available in 2016; by 2026, that number will have increased by 9% or 16,200 jobs. In contrast, 136,300 Electronics Engineers (not including Computer Engineers) were employed in total in 2016. Therefore, it will rise by 4%, creating 5,100 new job opportunities in related industries.
