Roles & Responsibilities:
The Electrical Systems Integration Engineer will be responsible for a range of tasks. These tasks may be performed concurrently or at different stages, with prioritization based on project needs:

Drive open design to completion and solve design issues (e.g. propose solutions, support mass reduction initiatives)

* Maintain electrical connectivity (e.g. update system block diagrams, update system-level electrical interconnection schematic, update grounding diagrams)

* Collaborate with suppliers to ensure compliance with specifications and standards

* Review suppliers "as-planned", "as-designed", and "as-built" documentation (e.g. interface control document, derating analysis, worst case analysis, qualification test plan and procedure, acceptance test plan and procedure, test report)

* Conduct characterization and risk reduction tests (e.g. evaluate test methods)

* Development system-level electrical verification (e.g. method, objective, event, activity, success criteria, author test plan)

* Perform electrical interface compatibility verifications (e.g. check component external interfaces compatibility including interconnecting harness, sneak circuit analysis)

* Perform power management verifications - analyses and documentation (e.g. voltage drop, round trip resistance, impedance, power stability, circuit protection, electrical load analysis)

* Manage hardware command and telemetry implementation (e.g. develop and coordinate calibration and conversion curves for analog telemetry in coordination subsystem engineers, verify electrical/software implementation)

* Verify electrical connectivity implementation (e.g. verify electrical harness implementation, safety-critical circuit segregation, support peer-reviews)

* Support physical layer verification (e.g. signal integrity)

* Contribute to assembly integration and test activities (e.g. harness integration and testing, electrical test requirements development, anomaly investigations/resolutions)

* Document verification activities (e.g. review test artifact, author test report, prepare verification closure notice)

* Identify electrical systems risks, develop risk mitigation plans for selected risks, and implement mitigations

* Collaborate effectively with team members from multiple subsystems and subject matter experts to achieve integrated solutions.

* Train and mentor other team members

Basic Qualifications:

Bachelor's degree or higher in a STEM area (Science, Technology, Engineering or Math) and 8 years of relevant work experience or 6 years of relevant work experience with a Master's degree

* General electrical engineering background with basic understanding of analog and digital electronics

* Technical experience in systems engineering and integration

* Proficiency in a programming language

* Hands-on mentality and a passion for fast-paced environments

Preferred Qualifications:

Knowledge of power converter topologies, micro-grid, grid-connected power electronics, grid-connected batteries

* Understanding of switching waveforms, semi-conductor losses and experience with loss modeling

* Experienced with data bus (Ethernet, SpaceWire, RS-422, RS-485, MIL-STD-1553) and troubleshooting

* Experienced with signal acquisition (filtering, Analog to Digital Converter)

* Experienced with electrical system grounding and characterization, power quality and EMI/EMC testing

* Familiarity with functional specification, state machines, and FMEA (Failure Mode Effect and Criticality Analysis)

* Model-based design and test background (e.g. Simulink, SPICE, AMESim, Saber, LabView)

* Development and operations of hardware-in-the-loop simulators, conducting testing and troubleshooting of hardware and software interfaces

* Experience on prime integrated systems (not just component/subsystem)

* Full program lifecycle experience (requirements through integration/test/verification)

* Experience in electrical manufacturing (e.g. board, unit, harness) a plus
