Electrical Engineer - Elevator Component Manufacturing
Wittur Group is the world's largest independent manufacturer of elevator components and a trusted global leader in elevator solutions, technology, and services.
Wittur Australia, based in Arndell Park, has been a preferred supplier of elevator components and modernisation solutions for over 30 years. As part of a global organisation, our local team offers a collaborative and supportive environment where individual contributions are recognised and valued.
About the role
Wittur Australia is establishing local manufacturing of elevator control panels at our Arndell Park facility, and we are looking for an Electrical Engineer to be at the centre of that build. You will design the control panels we produce based on our Elevator controller (Dedicated PLC). You will design the schematics, cabinet layout, wiring paths, BOMs, and you will work alongside our production team to bring those designs to life on the shop floor.
As we ramp from first-of-kind builds toward serial production, you will own the technical foundation: the drawings, the testing procedures, and the quality controls. This is a hands-on role with real ownership, suited to an engineer who wants to shape a manufacturing operation from the ground up rather than maintain one that already exists.
