Electrical design technician vs electrical engineer

Differences between electrical design technician and electrical engineer duties and responsibilities

Electrical design technician example responsibilities.

• Lead technicians and engineers to accomplish a cross-functional CNC fixture design to improve production capabilities.
• Develop RF products base on low to high level implementation specifications base on customer or requests or company design modification requirements.
• Design experience include power applications using gas turbines, diesel generators, substation, and switchgear design.
• Test operational elements include normal and emergency operation of PLCs, validation of Rsview32 HMI operation and SCADA system interface.
• Design emergency switchgear and emergency generator conduit routing through congest boiler room area.
• Furnish substation battery & charger size calculation utilizing IEEE format.

Electrical engineer example responsibilities.

• Achieve rugged secure extension of HMI modules with USB host and device auto switching capability.
• Achieve low cost solution for professional tier radio with rug full color display and USB accessory interface.
• Accomplish intelligent remote terminal unit (RTU) automatic control with graphical liquid crystal display (LCD).
• Develop LabVIEW code to automate test procedures and to communicate with units for verification of functionality and accuracy.
• Coordinate with senior electrical engineers and achieve hands-on experience on coal fire plant power generation and power transformers, circuit breakers.
• Provide engineering design CADD and REVIT support for the Ellerbe Becket electrical department.
