The
Sr. Manufacturing Engineer I
- Vehicle Electrical Systems supports vehicle electrical integration, manufacturing diagnostics, and end-of-line (EOL) testing to ensure vehicles meet established engineering requirements and production quality standards.

This role leads technical investigations and resolution of assigned vehicle electrical and manufacturing systems issues, coordinating with Manufacturing, Quality, and Vehicle Engineering to identify root causes, implement corrective actions, and improve production processes. The position is hands-on and requires a strong understanding of vehicle electrical systems, diagnostic tools, and manufacturing validation in a fast‑paced automotive environment.

• Lead the technical investigation and resolution of assigned vehicle electrical and manufacturing systems issues, including low-voltage and high-voltage systems, wiring, communication networks, and software-related diagnostics.
• Support vehicle electrical integration and validation activities to ensure manufacturing processes and completed vehicles meet established engineering requirements and vehicle-level targets.
• Develop, execute, and improve end-of-line (EOL) testing and diagnostic procedures in collaboration with Vehicle Engineering and Manufacturing.
• Perform electrical diagnostics and troubleshooting using tools such as CANalyzer, digital multimeters, oscilloscopes, and other vehicle diagnostic equipment.
• Conduct root-cause analysis of electrical, integration, and manufacturing issues; coordinate corrective actions with cross-functional teams to resolve concerns and prevent recurrence.
• Provide technical guidance to engineers and technicians on electrical diagnostics, testing procedures, and issue resolution.
• Support manufacturing launches, production readiness, and ongoing production activities by identifying technical risks, escalating unresolved issues, and coordinating timely resolution.
• Analyze manufacturing and testing results to identify recurring issues, recommend process improvements, and enhance vehicle electrical quality and reliability.
• Maintain accurate documentation of diagnostic results, testing procedures, root-cause investigations, and corrective actions.
• Collaborate with Manufacturing, Quality, Vehicle Engineering, and other cross-functional stakeholders to support vehicle integration, validation, and production objectives.
• Other duties, as assigned.

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Systems Engineering, or a related engineering discipline.
• 5+ years of relevant engineering experience in automotive manufacturing, vehicle electrical systems, vehicle integration, diagnostics, or validation.
• Experience troubleshooting vehicle electrical systems, including low-voltage and high-voltage systems, wiring, communication networks, and software-related issues.
• Hands-on experience with end-of-line testing, vehicle diagnostics, manufacturing validation, or production troubleshooting.
• Proficiency with CANalyzer or comparable vehicle network diagnostic tools.
• Experience using electrical diagnostic equipment, including digital multimeters and oscilloscopes.
• Ability to interpret electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, and engineering documentation.
• Strong root-cause analysis, problem-solving, and cross-functional coordination skills.
• Ability to work hands-on in a manufacturing environment and support production and launch activities.

• Experience with automotive OEM…
