Electronic Engineer II

About the Position

ABOUT THE POSITION: We’re looking for an Electronic Engineer II who is excited to design products that are at the core of our business (motorcycle, ATV / UTV, snowmobile, work lights, signalization, etc.). Each day brings variety, from creating circuitry designs from concept to hardware, resolving issues, brainstorming, collaborating with customers and cross-functional teams, reviewing and overseeing tests, and more.

OUR IDEAL CANDIDATE: You’ll bring your 4-5+ years of designing electronic circuits along with a bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering or electrical engineering technology. You’re comfortable working independently and cross-functionally, balancing multiple projects at different stages of development. You enjoy wearing multiple hats, exploring new technologies, and applying your knowledge of both circuit design and how it fits into the larger system, understanding upstream and downstream needs.

Ideally, you’ll have experience with Altium or PADS, SPICE-based circuit simulation, EMI / EMC design, and switching power supplies (Buck, Boost, SEPIC topologies, < 200 Watt). Experience with lighting is a plus, though background in automotive controls, vehicle electronics, or related power-sports applications is equally valuable.

INNOVATE

• Implementing LED lighting topologies into products with harsh environments and stringent EMI/BCI requirements.
• Developing moderately complex concepts for Customer / Sales inquiries / RFQ’s and developing those concepts into manufacturable designs and products.
• Troubleshooting and implementing countermeasures on complex circuits and customer system issues, including communicating directly with Customers and Suppliers on technical issues.
• Using, creating, and improving design standards, best practices, tolerances, testing, etc.
• Actively practicing and implementing effective problem solving as part of NPD or other systemic issues.

EXPLORE

• Understanding the technical and market requirements of LED lighting in automotive, motorcycle, UTV/ATV and golf cart applications.
• Representing Electrical Engineering in large cross functional teams to evaluate feasibility and costs of complex concepts.
• Incorporating detailed working knowledge of regulatory and industry standards and optimized manufacturing processes into concepts and designs.
• Developing 1-2 areas of technical expertise related to J.W.S. business.

PERFORM

• Completing DFMEA’s, DFM/DFA, concept design reviews, and critical design reviews.
• Managing and advising on time management and priority decisions to ensure timely completion of required work, including all necessary Engineering Elements for NPD and escalating as needed.
• Mentoring other junior team members and leading by example.

• Health, Dental, and Vision insurance
• Short term & Long-term disability insurance
• 401k with employer match
• Paid time off, including Vacation, Sick & Personal Time, and 11 paid Holidays
• Generous Profit-Sharing Plan
• Tuition reimbursement & Scholarships
• Development and Growth opportunities
• Casual work environment for all associates
• State-of-the-Art, temperature-controlled environment
• And many more!

• 4-5+ years of designing electronic circuits
• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or related field
• Experience with Altium or PADS, SPICE-based circuit simulation, EMI/EMC design, and switching power supplies (Buck, Boost, SEPIC, < 200 Watt)
• Experience with LED lighting, automotive controls, vehicle electronics, or related power-sports applications is desired
• Ability to work independently and cross-functionally, balancing multiple projects
• Strong knowledge of circuit design, system integration, and regulatory standards
