Mission of the Role
We are looking for a Senior Vehicle Electrical Systems Engineer to own the vehicle-level electrical architecture of our autonomous driving platform. You will define how our autonomy kit — compute, sensors, actuators, and control units — integrates electrically with the base vehicle, and set the electrical design standards. Our vehicles operate in outdoor industrial environments such as port container terminals and airport airside areas.
Key Responsibilities
- Own the vehicle-level electrical architecture: power distribution, grounding and bonding, shielding, and circuit protection
- Define electrical interfaces between the autonomy kit and the base vehicle, and own the schematics, wiring diagrams, interface control documents, and harness drawings that govern them
- Design onboard communication networks including topology, termination, and shielding
- Select and qualify wire, connectors, terminals, relays, and protection devices against the temperature, vibration, and ingress requirements of outdoor deployment
- Design safety-related circuits, including emergency-stop chains, interlocks, and fail-safe behavior
- Lead electrical integration, bring-up, and root-cause analysis on prototype and production vehicles
- Establish electrical inspection and test procedures
- Support prototype builds, vehicle testing, and field deployment alongside embedded hardware, firmware, mechanical, and vehicle engineering teams
Basic Qualifications
- 5+ years of experience in vehicle electrical systems, off-highway or industrial machinery, or robotic mobile platforms
- Ownership of an electrical architecture from concept through vehicle integration and validation
- Deep knowledge of power distribution, grounding and bonding, shielding, circuit protection, and electrical interface design
- Experience producing wiring diagrams, harness specifications, and interface documentation
- Vehicle-side troubleshooting with oscilloscope, multimeter, current probe, and CAN bus analyzer
- Willingness to work on vehicles in the field, including travel to customer sites
Preferred Qualifications
- Automotive, commercial vehicle, off-highway, or special-purpose vehicle platforms
- EMC, ESD, and electrical transient requirements; environmental standards such as ISO 16750, ISO 7637, and IP ingress ratings
- Functional safety practice — ISO 26262, ISO 13849, or IEC 61508
- ECU and MCU-based embedded hardware
- Experience introducing electrical design standards and review processes to a team
