.

You will collaborate closely with mechanical, controls, software, and manufacturing teams to deliver robust systems through the full development cycle—from concept to system launch.

• Design and document electrical architectures, schematics, wiring diagrams, and component selections for Li‑ion battery systems, HV distribution, and vehicle integration
  .
• Develop and maintain system requirements, interface definitions,
  DFMEAs, PFMEAs, DVP&R, and system test plans.
• Apply strong engineering knowledge of HV components:
  contractors, switches, HVIL, insulation, isolation monitoring, safety interlocks, bus bars, sensors, and protective devices
  .
• Support PCB/hardware development efforts (
  Altium preferred; OrCAD or equivalent considered
  ).

• Coordinate with controls and software teams on system behaviors, state machines, protection logic, and calibration
  .
• Support embedded controls development using MATLAB/Simulink/Stateflow
  , model‑based design, and C‑based integration review
  .
• Use CAN tools (Vector CANalyzer, CANape) to evaluate control systems, validate functionality, and troubleshoot issues.

• Develop validation test procedures for system‑level and component‑level verification
  .
• Perform hands‑on prototype testing,
  fault evaluation, root‑cause analysis, and troubleshooting of high‑ and low‑voltage systems.
• Follow lab and vehicle test procedures to evaluate system performance, safety interactions, and functional behavior
  .

• Work with internal team members and external suppliers to ensure successful design, build, and validation
  .
• Participate in recurring technical review meetings to identify risks, integration issues, and quality concerns
  .
• Assist in project planning—tracking timing, risks, status, and technical deliverables
  .

• Generate and coordinate build documentation, assembly instructions, inspection sheets, and test records
  .
• Support prototype build reviews, manufacturing handoff, and initial production readiness
  .

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Controls, Computer Engineering, or Mechatronics from an accredited institution.
• Equivalent experience will be considered.

• 5–15 years of experience in electrical or systems engineering for EV, hybrid, automotive, heavy vehicle, or defense systems
  .
• Proficiency in electrical system architecture, safety concepts, and requirements flow‑down
  .
• Experience with:
• MATLAB/Simulink/Stateflow
• LabVIEW
• SPICE / PSpice
• Controls platforms (
  Moto Hawk, dSPACE, ETAS preferred
  )
• Hands‑on experience with high‑voltage battery systems, inverters, DC‑DC converters, BMS, and vehicle electrical integration
  .
• Familiarity with EV industry standards, ISO 26262 concepts
  , and relevant military or commercial vehicle standards (preferred).
• Experience with PCB design tools (Altium) is a plus.

• Strong analytical and problem‑solving skills.
• Ability to manage multiple technical tasks in a fast‑paced, hands‑on environment
  .
• Excellent communication, collaboration, and documentation capabilities.
• A proactive mindset with strong attention to detail.

• Work on cutting‑edge battery systems, high‑voltage electrification, and ruggedized energy products
  .
• Be part of a small, agile engineering environment with meaningful technical ownership.
• Exposure to diverse projects and close collaboration with customers and leadership.
• Competitive compensation and opportunities for long‑term growth
  .
