Role Description

We are looking for an electrical wire harness engineer who can play a key role in the development of our battery module electronics and control systems. You will be part of a rapidly growing team responsible for PCBA design, component selection, wire harness designs, and validation testing. Ideally, the harness engineer should have exposure to a broad range of technical challenges and methods in the context of product development, including connector selection, cable shielding, twisted pair communication wires, cable protection, and harness routing. Cross-team collaboration throughout the product development organization is a critical part of this role, so systems-level thinking and multidisciplinary engineering problem-solving are key traits of a successful candidate.

What you'll do:

• Work cross-functionally with Mechanical, Compliance, and Electrical engineers to define harness requirements, material, and connector selection
• Create and maintain 2D electrical harness single and multi-line schematics
• Draft fabrication, manufacturing, inspection, and assembly drawings for wire harness assemblies
• Identify suitable materials and components for wire harness assembly
• Work closely with procurement teams to source materials and components from approved suppliers
• Define routing, shielding, wire color, sealing, and EMI design specifications
• Collaborate closely with mechanical engineers on wire harness CAD routing through mechanical features and harness fixation points
• Troubleshoot wire harness bring-up and validation
• Communicate project progress, challenges, and solutions effectively to team members and management

What you'll bring:

• A Bachelor of Science Degree in Mechanical OR Electrical Engineering
• 2+ years experience in product development (experience in energy storage or renewable energy is a plus)
• Hands-on experience designing and building electro-mechanical systems and harnesses
• Expertise with 3D CAD, PLM, and Harness design software
• Proven expertise in 2D drawing creation software
• Strong knowledge of industry-specific regulations and standards (e.g., UL, IPC)
• Familiarity with reading electrical schematics
• Experience with twisted pair and shielding for communication harnesses
• Experience working with weather-sealed connectors
