From electrical engineer to electromechanical engineer
16 of the 41 essential skills of a electromechanical engineer are already essential for a electrical engineer — about 39% of the job, before you learn anything new. It is the closest move from electrical engineer in the whole taxonomy.
These numbers compare two occupations, not you and a job. What you personally already cover depends on what you have actually done.

What a electromechanical engineer does
Electromechanical engineers design and develop equipment and machinery that use both electrical and mechanical technology. They make draughts and prepare documents detailing the material requisitions, the assembly process and other technical specifications. Electromechanical engineers also test and evaluate the prototypes. They oversee the manufacturing process.
