Electrical Systems Engineer

Position Summary

The Electrical Systems Engineer is responsible for the design, integration, and validation of electrical systems and sub‑systems for the company’s products, ensuring performance, safety and regulatory compliance throughout the product lifecycle. This role applies an interdisciplinary, collaborative approach to define requirements, develop architectures, coordinate interfaces and support testing and certification activities.

• SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS AND ARCHITECTURE:
  Analyze customer, regulatory and internal requirements to derive electrical system and sub‑system requirements.
• Develop electrical system architectures including power distribution protection control and communication interfaces.
• Prepare and interpret electrical specifications single‑line diagrams schematics and technical drawings.
• Ensure requirements traceability through the full development lifecycle using appropriate tools e.g. DOORS or similar.
• ELECTRICAL SYSTEM DESIGN AND INTEGRATION:
  Design and specify components and systems such as power supplies harnesses switch gear drives sensors actuators and control hardware as applicable to the product.
• Develop construction installation and manufacturing specifications for electrical systems and components.
• Integrate electrical systems with mechanical software and control systems resolving interface and compatibility issues.
• Support PCB and hardware design activities by providing system‑level requirements and interface definitions.
• ANALYSIS CALCULATIONS AND STANDARDS COMPLIANCE:
  Perform detailed electrical calculations load flow short circuit protection coordination cable sizing grounding etc. to ensure safe reliable operation.
• Evaluate system requirements capacity cost and project needs to develop electrical system plans and design options.
• Ensure compliance with applicable codes standards and customer specifications e.g. IEEE NESC IEC industry specific standards.
• Participate in risk assessments and design reviews focusing on safety reliability and maintainability of electrical systems.
• TESTING VALIDATION AND TROUBLESHOOTING:
  Develop system and sub‑system test plans procedures and acceptance criteria for electrical systems.
• Support and conduct lab bench and in‑field tests to verify that designs meet functional and performance requirements.
• Analyze test data identify root causes of issues and implement corrective design or configuration changes.
• Support certification qualification and regulatory compliance activities including documentation and test evidence.
• PROJECT AND CROSS‑FUNCTIONAL SUPPORT:
  Collaborate with project managers systems engineers and manufacturing teams to ensure designs are delivered on time within budget and to quality standards.
• Provide technical input for supplier selection design reviews and vendor component evaluations.
• Support production installation commissioning and operations teams with technical guidance and troubleshooting for electrical systems.
• Contribute to continuous improvement of design methods tools and standards within the electrical engineering function.

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or related discipline.
• Typically 3–7 years of experience in electrical systems design integration or similar engineering roles.
• Demonstrated experience with design and analysis of electrical power or control systems in an applicable industry e.g. automotive aerospace industrial equipment energy.
• Proficiency with electrical design and analysis tools e.g. CAD ECAD ETAP PSSE PSLF or similar SPICE based tools.
• Strong understanding of electrical engineering principles including circuit design power distribution grounding and protection.

• Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering or Systems Engineering.
• Experience in your target domain e.g. vehicles aircraft renewable energy manufacturing line equipment including relevant standards and certification requirements.
• Knowledge of systems engineering practices including requirements management verification and validation and model based systems engineering.
• Familiarity with functional safety EMC and environmental qualification relevant to the product line.
