About

The Role

Serve as the technical and strategic owner for emerging technology systems within our forklift portfolio. This role blends deep technical execution—integrating telematics, LiDAR, AI camera systems, and Ultra-Wide Band (UWB) —with product management responsibilities. You will not only manage the "release" (BOM, CAD, and validation) but also the product roadmap, supplier strategy, and cross-functional alignment to ensure our connected solutions meet market demands and long-term business goals.

You will develop detailed electrical schematics, analyze system test data, and collaborate with cross-functional teams. You will also develop new verification methods and work with forklifts, as well as with hardware-in-the-loop, model-in-the-loop, and other advanced testing methodologies to validate our new systems.

What You Will Do
  • Product Lifecycle & Strategy:
    Define the product vision, roadmap, and technical specifications for connected solutions components you own. Manage the end-to-end "Release" process, including wiring harnesses, detailed electrical schematics, Bill of Materials (BOM) accuracy, and production readiness while adhering to industry standards.
  • System Integration & Architecture:
    Lead the integration of telematics, LiDAR, AI cameras, and/or UWB. Serve as the subject matter expert (SME) for how these advanced sensors interact with the forklift’s core control systems.
  • Supplier & Stakeholder Management:
    Act as the primary technical point of contact for tier-1 suppliers. Conduct technical reviews, manage RFQs (Request for Quotes), and ensure supplier hardware meets quality and cost targets.
  • Advanced Validation & Compliance:
    Lead system-level validation (HIL/SIL). Support prototype build activities, including assembly, integration, and validation of electrical and sensing hardware to meet performance requirements, regulatory standards, and safety certifications.
  • Current Product Management:
    Track, troubleshoot, and resolve electrical system issues, implementing corrective actions to improve system efficiency and robustness.
  • Mentorship & Process Improvement:
    Provide technical guidance to junior engineers. Identify opportunities to improve the D&R process, such as implementing more robust data analysis workflows or standardizing hardware specifications.

Qualifications

What you need to have:

  • Bachelor’s degree in engineering (Electrical, Mechanical, Systems, or related field).
  • 7 years of experience in electrical systems engineering with a proven track record of “releasing” products in an OEM environment.
  • Demonstrated experience managing a product from concept through end-of-life (EOL), including budget considerations and feature prioritization.
  • Proficiency in PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) software (e.g., Teamcenter, Windchill) and release documentation.
  • Working knowledge of electrical engineering principles/best practices, control systems, and electrical subsystems.
  • Experience with CANBus protocols and testing (collecting and analyzing CAN data using tools like P-CAN, CANalyzer, etc.)
  • Hands-on…
