About the Role

We are looking for a hands-on Electrical Engineer to support the design, integration, and validation of operational equipment and drivable-concept systems used to operate autonomous vehicles in non-autonomous modes. This role bridges electrical hardware, low-voltage systems, and vehicle integration supporting everything from external control devices to in-vehicle driver-interface components.

The ideal candidate is adaptable, understands how LV electrical systems behave in real vehicles, and can take electrical hardware from concept to implementation.

What You'll Do

Support "drivable concept" integration, adding EE components such as instrument clusters, accelerator/brake signal interfaces, and other driver-assist electrical elements

Create and review low-voltage schematics for added subsystems and ensure proper interfacing with vehicle networks and power distribution

Debug, proto@type, and resolve electrical issues during bench and in-vehicle testing 5

Collaborate cross-functionally with mechanical, controls, wiring, and integration teams to ensure safe, reliable implementation

What We're Looking For

Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or related field, with 3-5+ years experience in automotive, robotics, or embedded systems

Strong understanding of low-voltage electrical design, component selection, and schematic interpretation

Ability to integrate EE devices into complex vehicle systems and troubleshoot real-world electrical issues

Comfortable building proto@types, working hands-on, and supporting fast-paced engineering development

Effective communicator who works well across hardware, controls, and integration functions

Bonus / Nice to Have

Experience with wiring/harness design tools (Capital, CATIA/3DX)

Familiarity with automotive networks (CAN, LIN) and driver-interface hardware

Experience developing or supporting special equipment, test fixtures, or custom electrical assemblies

Salary Range: $110,000-$120,000/K

The actual salary offered is dependent on various factors including, but not limited to, location, the candidate's combination of job-related knowledge, qualifications, skills, education, training, and experience
