Electrical engineering is all about turning complex challenges into elegant solutions. At American Crane & Equipment Corporation, our engineers design the control systems, power distribution, and safety circuits that allow massive cranes and hoists to move with pinpoint precision.
Right now, we’re hiring Electrical Engineers to join our team in Douglassville, PA — professionals who want a career solving real-world problems, collaborating with a talented team, and seeing their designs come to life.
Why Experience Matters
In overhead lifting, the design has to be right the first time. A properly built control panel, a well-programmed VFD, or a carefully specified safety interlock can make the difference between a smooth, efficient lift and a costly shutdown.
Experienced engineers bring something extra to the table: a blend of technical knowledge, practical insight, and confidence that only comes from solving problems in the field. They know how to troubleshoot quickly when the unexpected happens, keeping projects on track and downtime to a minimum. At American Crane, that expertise is put to work on projects for aerospace, nuclear power, steel manufacturing, and other demanding industries.
What Makes an American Crane Engineer Stand Out
We’re looking for more than just technical skills — we look for engineers who:
- See the big picture– You design with safety, efficiency, and long-term reliability in mind.
- Lead with confidence– You set project objectives, coordinate timelines, and guide teams toward successful outcomes.
- Mentor and inspire– You share your knowledge with less experienced engineers, helping grow the next generation of talent.
- Embrace collaboration– You thrive working with mechanical engineers, project managers, and customers to deliver seamless solutions.
- Stay curious– You keep up with new technologies and bring fresh ideas to every project.
- Take pride in precision– You know the details matter, and you get them right.
Why People Choose American Crane — and Stay
Our industry-leading <5% turnover rate says a lot about how we treat our team. People stay here for nearly a decade on average because American Crane is a place where careers grow.
We offer competitive pay, strong benefits, and ongoing professional development — but just as important, we offer a culture where your leadership matters. Seasoned engineers don’t just contribute; they help shape the future of our engineering team and mentor others along the way.
A Career Where Your Work Shows
As an Electrical Engineer at American Crane, your designs won’t just sit in a CAD file — they’ll power equipment that moves massive components, keeps production lines on schedule, and helps industries operate safely and efficiently. Every project you complete has a visible, measurable impact.
