About the Role
We are looking for an Electrical Engineer to design, integrate, validate, and support electrical systems used in autonomous industrial vehicles. The role combines hands-on vehicle integration with disciplined engineering of power distribution, wiring, sensors, compute hardware, communications, and drive-by-wire interfaces.
Vehicle electrical integration. Design and integrate 12 V / 24 V electrical systems including power distribution, DC/DC converters, sensors, cameras, LiDAR, GNSS, compute systems, routers, and drive-by-wire interfaces.
Schematics and harnesses. Develop and review electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, interface drawings, harness documentation, connector pinouts, and installation documentation.
Power and protection. Define voltage, current, grounding, fuse, wire-size, connector, voltage-drop, and protection requirements; maintain system power budgets and verify electrical loading.
Communication networks. Integrate and troubleshoot CAN / CAN FD / J1939, Ethernet, serial, and other vehicle communication interfaces, including termination, wiring, and network reliability issues.
Component selection. Select suitable connectors, cables, relays, fuses, power supplies, sensors, and electrical hardware based on electrical, environmental, reliability, and serviceability requirements.
Testing and commissioning. Perform bench testing, vehicle commissioning, functional checks, and verification testing before release to field operation.
Troubleshooting. Investigate electrical, power, grounding, intermittent connection, and communication failures using oscilloscopes, multimeters, CAN tools, data loggers, and other diagnostic equipment.
Field support. Support prototype builds, production builds, customer deployments, retrofits, and field issue resolution.
Validation. Develop and execute test plans covering power behavior, electrical transients, communication reliability, temperature, vibration, ingress protection, and relevant environmental conditions.
Documentation and change control. Maintain BOMs, drawings, test records, engineering changes, configuration information, and clear technical documentation.
Supplier coordination. Work with cable, connector, power-supply, sensor, and other suppliers to resolve technical and quality issues.
Cross-functional engineering. Collaborate closely with electronics, mechanical, embedded software, autonomous-driving, vehicle-control, manufacturing, and field teams
Qualifications
Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, Mechatronics Engineering, or a related discipline.
Typically 2-5 years of relevant electrical engineering experience.
Good understanding of DC electrical systems, power distribution, grounding, protection, wiring harnesses, connectors, and electrical interfaces.
Practical knowledge of CAN bus and Ethernet-based systems.
Experience reading and developing electrical schematics and wiring diagrams.
Hands-on experience with electrical test and diagnostic equipment.
Strong troubleshooting, root-cause analysis, and documentation skills.
Able to work independently in both laboratory and vehicle / field environments.
Preferred Experience
Automotive, commercial vehicle, robotics, autonomous vehicle, mobile machinery, or industrial equipment.
12 V / 24 V vehicle electrical architectures and drive-by-wire systems.
CAN / CAN FD / J1939 diagnostics and vehicle communication networks.
Harness design, connector selection, crimping, routing, and installation practices.
EMC, electrical transient, environmental, vibration, or ingress-protection testing.
Functional-safety-related hardware or systems.
Engineering tools such as KiCad, Altium, EPLAN, or equivalent.
Python or other scripting tools for test automation and engineering data analysis.
