Design Engineer / Product Innovator

SICHVOLT is looking for talented and innovative individuals to collaborate with us on the development of our next generation of Industrial Plugs, Sockets & Connectors.

We are open to experienced engineers, young engineers, engineering graduates and students who have the technical ability, creativity and passion to develop innovative products.

Development of:

• 16A, 32A, 63A & 125A Industrial Wall-Mounted Sockets
• Panel-Mounted Sockets
• Industrial Plugs
• Connectors
• Associated housings, covers, locking mechanisms, terminals and assemblies

The products will be developed with reference to the applicable requirements of:

IEC 60309-1 / IEC 60309-2 / IEC 60309-4

We value relevant industrial experience, but experience alone will not be the deciding factor.

We are particularly interested in people who can look at existing products in the market and ask:

We want fresh thinking and practical innovation.

A young engineer or student with an excellent product idea, strong engineering fundamentals and the ability to convert an idea into a workable design can be equally valuable to an experienced professional.

Ideas that can potentially deliver:

Better Safety • Better Functionality • Lower Cost • Easier Manufacturing • Better User Experience

Possible areas include:

• Improved electrical contact and terminal arrangements
• Enhanced protection against accidental contact
• Innovative locking/interlocking mechanisms
• Improved IP protection and sealing
• Simplified assembly
• Reduced number of components
• Optimized material usage
• Improved mechanical strength
• Innovative hinge and cover mechanisms
• Improved cable-entry solutions
• Modular design across 16A / 32A / 63A / 125A
• Injection-moulding and tooling optimization
• Easier installation and maintenance
• Reduced manufacturing and assembly cost
• New safety features or functional improvements over existing market products

Innovation must always be practical, manufacturable and compatible with the applicable IEC requirements and product safety requirements.

We welcome applications from:

Experienced Product / Electrical Design Engineers

Mechanical Design Engineers with relevant product experience

Young Engineers & Fresh Graduates

Engineering Students with strong design capabilities

Product Designers / Industrial Designers

CAD Designers with relevant technical knowledge

Independent Inventors / Innovators

You don't necessarily need years of experience.

If you have a great idea, engineering capability and the determination to develop it into a real product, we would like to hear from you.

Interested candidates may share:

1. Profile / CV
2. Relevant experience or academic background
3. Portfolio / previous projects
4. Any innovative product concepts you have developed
5. CAD skills and software expertise
6. Knowledge of IEC 60309 or related standards, if any
7. Your proposed commercial / professional fee
8. Expected project timeline
9. Availability

For students and young engineers, academic projects, prototypes, concepts and innovative ideas are welcome — professional experience is not mandatory.

SICHVOLT is looking to build products that are not simply copies of what is already available in the market, but products that are:

SAFER • SMARTER • SIMPLER • STRONGER • MORE COST-EFFECTIVE

If you believe you can contribute to that objective, we want to hear your idea.

Send your profile, portfolio or idea along with your commercial proposal to SICHVOLT.
