Electrical CAD Designer

Torus is headquartered in Utah and is expanding manufacturing at our 540,000-square-foot facility in Salt Lake City called GigaOne. Our mission is to build the world’s first mesh energy infrastructure — built to unite people and communities through resilient, secure, and intelligent power. We design, engineer, manufacture, install, and support our systems end-to-end, standing behind them throughout their lifecycle. Torus systems help reduce costs, lower emissions, and protect facilities from outages, while strengthening the security and reliability of the broader utility grid. Torus is committed to American manufacturing, engineering excellence, and building energy systems that last. 

At Torus, you will be part of something larger than a single product or technology. Your work will help build energy infrastructure that supports critical systems, industry, and communities for decades to come. We value accountability, collaboration, and clear thinking. We are looking for people who want to solve hard problems and build things that matter.

Every Torus system that reduces energy costs, shields a community from an outage, or strengthens the grid begins as a drawing. As an Electrical CAD Designer, you are the translation layer between engineering intent and manufactured reality. You convert complex designs into the precise schematics and documentation packages our team builds from every day on the GigaOne floor. Your work doesn't sit in a folder; it becomes wiring, assemblies, and live systems that customers will depend on. Torus is scaling American manufacturing at speed, and the integrity of what we build depends on the integrity of how it's documented. This role is where that standard is set.

• Create/maintain detailed electrical schematics and panel layouts using AutoCAD Electrical
• Generate bills of materials (BOMs) from the schematic
• Ensure BOM accuracy with ERP system (Netsuite)
