About Quartus

Quartus Engineering Incorporated (www.quartus.com) is a leading provider of engineering services and integrated hardware solutions for a wide range of clients and industries. We employ advanced computer-aided engineering tools in the areas of optics, structural, thermal, and coupled analyses. We couple our engineering analysis capabilities with design, prototype, integration and test capabilities to create solutions for our clients that are of extraordinary value.

About Applied Photonics Sector

Applied Photonics is a business unit within Quartus that focuses on the practical application of the science and technology of light. Our teams develop innovative products as well as custom optical and metrology solutions for commercial and industrial applications. Our expertise spans precision metrology, robotics, machine vision, semiconductor and emerging photonic technologies including quantum optics. Typical development cycles begin with defining customer objectives, progress through all stages of design and analysis, and conclude with hardware build and rigorous testing.

Our clients range from large, industry-leading organizations to agile startup-style companies. We pride ourselves on bridging diverse perspectives and delivering advanced technical systems that meet each program’s budget and schedule constraints.

Our multidisciplinary team—comprising optical, opto-mechanical, mechanical, electrical, and software engineers—works in a highly collaborative environment where communication and team ethics are paramount.

What will you do?

As an Electrical Designer, you will own schematic capture, cabling drawings, panel documentation, and 2D mechanical drawing production across a wide range of engineering programs. Projects span from precision optical subassemblies with well-defined interfaces to complete automation systems involving PLCs, electrical cabinets, and integrated PCs.

This is a SolidWorks-native role requiring the use of SolidWorks Electrical Professional for 3D harness routing and 2D schematic/cabling documentation. On the mechanical side you will work within SolidWorks to produce 2D manufacturing and assembly drawings from existing 3D models.

Essential Job Functions:

Electrical Documentation

Develop 2D schematics, wiring diagrams, wire lists, and harness/cable drawings in SolidWorks Electrical Professional, linked to the 3D mechanical model
Generate and maintain panel layouts for electrical cabinets including PLC I/O, power distribution, and PC/compute integration
Translate system interface control documents (ICDs) into compliant cabling designs for optical and motion subassemblies where scope is bounded to motors, sensors, and signal/power interconnect
Build and maintain component/connector libraries within SolidWorks Electrical — pinouts, wire gauge, color coding, manufacturer part numbers
Generate and synchronize BOMs directly from schematics through design revisions

Mechanical Drawing Production

Produce 2D detail drawings, assembly drawings, and drawing packages from existing SolidWorks models — fully dimensioned with GD&T, tolerances, notes, and title block per drawing standards
Create exploded views, section cuts, presentation configurations, and documentation-oriented model manipulations (part visibility, color states, simplified representations) to support assembly instructions, proposals, and customer deliverables
Maintain drawing revision history and ensure drawing packages stay synchronized with model changes

Cross-functional

Coordinate with mechanical, optical, and controls engineers to resolve interface questions, routing conflicts, and panel space constraints
Support design reviews and project milestone deliverables with complete, fabrication-ready documentation packages

Location

Position is based on site in San Diego.

What are we looking for?

Associate degree in electrical/CAD drafting, electrical engineering technology, or related field; equivalent combination of education and hands-on SolidWorks Electrical Professional experience will be considered in lieu of a degree.
3+ years of relevant experience
Experience with SolidWorks CAD ecosystem, specifically:
- SolidWorks Electrical Professional — both 3D harness/routing design and 2D schematic/cabling documentation.
- SolidWorks Mechanical — producing 2D detail and assembly drawings from existing models, including exploded views and presentation configurations. Full 3D part modeling is not required
Demonstrated experience generating wire lists, cable harness drawings, and panel schematics for fabricated hardware.
Experience generating dimensioned manufacturing drawings in SolidWorks per ASME Y14.5, including proper application of GD&T controls, tolerance callouts, and drawing notes for fabricated parts and assemblies
Comfort working across varied project scopes, from cabling packages to full cabinet builds with PLCs and significant I/O requirements.
Ability to work from system architecture diagrams, ICDs, and I/O lists produced by engineers, and deliver complete documentation
Must be a US Person (US Citizen or US Permanent Resident)

Compensation and Benefits

Electrical Designer pay range: $36.00/hour - $48.00/hour*

*This range represents base pay. In addition, you may be eligible for additional benefits and compensation.

Referral eligibility: Tier 1

Quartus is an equal opportunity employer and we are committed to employing a diverse workforce, including, but not limited to, minorities, women, individuals with disabilities, and protected veterans. Quartus provides comprehensive benefits including competitive salary, discretionary performance-based bonus, employee stock ownership plan, medical, dental, vision, and 401k plan with company match.
