About this role:Andrenam is seeking a Senior Electrical Integration Engineer who is passionate about advancing real-time maritime communication technology to build the central nervous system for maritime autonomy. This is a unique opportunity to be a core part of our founding team here in Hawthorne California, shaping the product and technology from the ground up.
Our main engineering challenge is to develop a real-time data platform that can ingest, process, store, and analyze data from thousands of autonomous and semi-autonomous marine systems. This system must be built to seamlessly handle a wide variety of sensors, hardware interfaces, data sources, and AI-driven analytics, all with military-grade security and robustness.
In This Role:- Own the full electrical integration of our systems, ensuring seamless operation across all components.
- Tackle complex engineering challenges related to electrical systems integration, from concept through deployment.
- Work closely with a multidisciplinary team, including software engineers and autonomy experts, to develop and refine our technology.
Responsibilities:- Lead end-to-end electrical integration of COTS and custom components, designing, building, and testing electrical subsystems and harnessing with focus on manufacturability, testability, and ease of troubleshooting.
- Develop and maintain comprehensive build procedures for electrical integration, including work instructions and assembly procedures for electronics.
- Define troubleshooting procedures and workflows with clearly defined instructions for debugging and resolving common issues.
- Establish and document test criteria for both individual components and overall system performance.
- Conduct lab and field testing of electrical systems and lead integration troubleshooting during deployments.
- Support Hardware-in-the-Loop (HITL) test bench operations and maintain Bill of Materials (BOM) for electrical subsystems.
- Ensure all documentation supports repeatability and knowledge transfer across the engineering team while keeping systems modular and open to modification.
Some Types of Experiences We're Especially Excited to See:- Proven experience in electrical systems integration with a portfolio of successful COTS and custom component integration projects.
- Expertise in designing and testing electrical subsystems for high-reliability and high-performance applications in challenging environments.
- Proficiency in electrical testing methodologies and troubleshooting complex integrated systems.
- Experience with developing comprehensive technical documentation, build procedures, and test protocols.
- Knowledge of electrical harnessing, system-level integration, and manufacturability considerations.
- Familiarity with industry standards and regulations for defense and maritime applications.
- Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to work independently in a fast-paced environment with evolving system requirements.
- Previous experience in a startup or rapidly evolving technology environment is highly desirable.
Why join us?Andrenam is an innovative, mission-driven company at the intersection of maritime autonomy and defense. We offer:
- Competitive salary
- Long-term equity incentive program with significant growth potential.
- Flexible PTO and paid holidays.
- Comprehensive medical, dental, vision insurance.
