About the role
Electrical Systems & Manufacturing Engineer
Role Purpose
Serve as the company-wide technical authority for electrical systems while also owning the manufacturability, repeatability, tooling, and quality of electrical/harness assembly processes.
What You Own
* Company electrical architecture and engineering standards across 12V, 48V, and AC systems. * Wiring schematics, harness architecture, harness design standards, and electrical BOM/specification discipline. * Battery/energy storage, solar, inverter/charger, DC/DC, HVAC electrical integration, and communications/CAN where applicable. * Electrical safety, compliance support, validation requirements, and component standardization. * Manufacturing engineering for the harness department, including fixtures, tooling, test equipment, error-proofing, and end-of-line testing.
Key Responsibilities
* Develop and maintain electrical architecture, schematics, harness designs, specifications, and design standards. * Partner with brand Product Engineers & Suppliers partners to translate product requirements into safe, robust electrical systems. * Lead next-generation electrical system development where appropriate. * Engineer harness manufacturing methods, fixtures, test systems, assembly processes, and quality controls. * Standardize components and interfaces across brands where doing so improves reliability, cost, service, or supply resilience. * Support electrical prototypes, validation, troubleshooting, field failures, supplier issues, and corrective actions. * Develop electrical diagnostic standards and production/end-of-line test methods. * Lead training for all electrical installation techs.
Cross-Functional Responsibilities
* Maintain a strong technical working relationship with all Sr. Product Engineers; organizational reporting to Operations does not change the role’s authority over shared electrical architecture, standards, schematics, harness engineering, and electrical validation requirements. * All Sr. Product Engineers on product electrical requirements and integration. * Manufacturing Engineering and the harness department on process capability, tooling, fixtures, and test. * Quality on electrical validation, failure analysis, compliance evidence, and corrective actions. * Supply Chain on electrical suppliers, components, alternates, and technical approvals. * Service on diagnostics, field failures, and serviceability improvements.
Qualifications & Experience
* Offgrid/Adventure Vehicle power systems. * Typically, 3-5 + years of electrical systems engineering experience in vehicles, RVs, marine, industrial equipment, energy systems, or other complex manufactured products. * Strong capability in wiring schematics, harness design, DC power systems, batteries, charging, protection, grounding, and electrical troubleshooting. * Experience with Victron custom power systems, lithium battery systems, inverters/chargers, solar, CAN/communications, and AC integration highly desirable. * Practical manufacturing engineering experience with harness assembly, fixtures, test equipment, error-proofing, and production quality. * Nice to have but not required - Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, mechatronics, electromechanical engineering, or closely related discipline.
What Success Looks Like
* Electrical architecture becomes standardized, documented, and scalable across brands. * Electrical and harness-related production defects and field failures decline. * Advanced power systems are developed with disciplined safety and validation. * Harness manufacturing is repeatable, testable, efficient, and well-tooled. * Brand teams receive strong electrical expertise without duplicating electrical roles.
Operating principle: Own the electrical ecosystem from schematic to harness station to field performance.
