Electrical Design Engineer

Role Overview: The Electrical Design Contingent Engineer supports projects through electrical design activities, collaborating cross-functionally to ensure solutions meet performance, cost, manufacturing, and timeline targets. The role involves hands-on design, prototyping, assembly trials, and coordination with internal teams and external suppliers.

Key Responsibilities:

• Perform electrical design tasks, develop new or improved designs using 3D modeling and 2D drawings, considering manufacturability, environmental factors, and cost.
• Recommend optimized solutions to address problems or reduce costs while meeting project goals.
• Conduct engineering calculations, design wire harnesses, and perform tolerance stack-up analyses to ensure proper assembly.
• Collaborate with departments to deliver practical, high-quality electrical designs on time.
• Participate in assembly and manufacturing trials, and liaise with vendors and project teams, including travel to various sites.
• Maintain accurate BOMs, drawings, and documentation, and follow up on design issues during review meetings.
• Support Design for Manufacturing activities and ensure designs meet targets for performance, durability, weight, and cost.

Qualifications & Skills:

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical, Mechanical, Mechatronics, or related fields.
• 3–5+ years of electrical design experience, preferably in automotive, aerospace, or high-performance industries.
• Proficiency in 3D CAD tools (e.g., CATIA V5/V6), with strong knowledge of high-voltage systems and wire harness design.
• Ability to perform engineering calculations, interpret drawings, BOMs, and apply GD&T principles.
• Experience with DFM practices, troubleshooting, and cross-functional collaboration.
• Excellent communication, problem-solving skills, and ability to manage time effectively.
• Willingness to travel as needed.
