This multi-disciplinary role will have you designing novel harnessing solutions for a variety of platforms in a rapid development environment.

Responsibilities:

  • Lead the design and execution of electrical harness architectures for HPM systems
  • Develop detailed harness designs from systems-level requirements / constraints
  • Lead systems-level harness guidance for high-EMI systems, such as shielding strategies, grounding approaches, power distribution layout and signal pathing
  • Evaluate and specify components such as connectors, wiring / cables, strain relief features and shield termination hardware
  • Create, release and maintain harness documentation packages such as system block diagrams, interconnect schematics, 3D CAD routing models and production drawings
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to define harness requirements, ensuring alignment between stakeholders such as engineering, production, quality and product management
  • Provide engineering support to select and manage vendors to manufacture and assemble designed parts
  • Support rapid development cycles, including prototyping, deployment, and continuous improvement
  • Support build and test phases, including harness quality inspections and on-site troubleshooting

Basic Qualifications:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related technical field (or equivalent experience)
  • 8+ years designing interconnect systems for harsh-environment applications such as defense, aerospace or industrial platforms
  • Proficiency in interpreting / working from wiring diagrams and interconnect documentation
  • Experience with designing harness systems that are optimized for voltage drop, thermal performance, component derating, EMI effects and interference / crosstalk.
  • Experience with Altium Harness Design or similar harness design software package (Zuken, Siemens Capital, CATIA Electrical, etc...)
  • Familiarity with requirements for cable and harness design, fabrication, inspection, and acceptance in accordance with IPC/WHMA-A-620, J-STD-001, SAE AS50881 and/or NASA-STD-8739.4
  • Working knowledge of GD&T and common engineering drawing standards (ASME Y14.5)

Preferred Skills and Experience

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
