The Impact You'll Make

We are seeking an Electrical Design Engineer who is passionate about turning innovative concepts into reality. In this role, you will be a key contributor to New Product Development, working across the entire lifecycle - from defining specifications and designing schematics to creating PCB layouts, testing prototypes, and supporting production release. You will apply strong engineering fundamentals, advanced mathematical skills, and hands-on hardware experience to deliver reliable, high-quality electronic designs.

If you thrive on solving complex technical challenges, collaborating with cross-functional teams, and continuously improving how products are built, this position offers the opportunity to make a meaningful impact.

Our products are used in off highway automotive areas that includes agricultural and construction equipment: tractors, combines, sprayers, balers, excavators, loaders, skid steers, man lifts, cranes, paving and logging equipment, etc.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Lead electrical design efforts for new product development, from defining specifications to production release.
  • Design electrical schematics using solid engineering principles and advanced math concepts.
  • Create PCB layouts with a strong understanding of trace routing, layer stack-ups, grounding, component placement, and manufacturability.
  • Perform hands-on bench testing, validation, and troubleshooting of prototype and production hardware.
  • Upgrade existing controller platforms to meet the latest Cybersecurity (CRA) requirements.
  • Interpret and apply international engineering and environmental standards throughout the design process.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams (mechanical, software, manufacturing, quality) to ensure seamless integration of electrical designs.
  • Use ECAD and mechanical CAD tools (Altium Designer, NX, or similar) to support design and documentation.
  • Utilize lab equipment such as oscilloscopes, multimeters, power supplies, signal generators, RF tools, and data acquisition systems.
  • Support continuous improvement initiatives, driving quality, reliability, and design efficiency.
  • Communicate technical concepts clearly to stakeholders across engineering, product management, and manufacturing.


What We're Looking For

  • Bachelor of Science Degree in Electrical Engineering from an accredited university
  • Have a minimum of 3 years of experience applying skills in designing schematics and printed circuit boards
  • Possess good knowledge of ECAD tools and mechanical CAD tools, experience with Altium Designer and NX are a plus
  • Ability to apply advanced mathematical concepts such as algebra, calculus, probability and statistics, geometry, and trigonometry
  • Basic knowledge of digital multimeters, oscilloscopes, PC data acquisition hardware, inspection equipment, signal generators, power supplies, RF equipment, and current probes
  • Possess strong interpersonal skills and ability to effectively communicate with key stakeholders


What You'll Get from Us

We are excited to offer you the following benefits with your employment: Bonus system, Paid vacation, Retirement plan, Flexible working hours, Personal insurance, Opportunity to join Employee Resource Groups, State of the art virtual work environment, and Employee Referral Program
