Design wire harnesses; experience with harness layout in assembly design is a plus. Perform tolerance stack‑up calculations to ensure proper assembly under all part variances. Collaborate with other departments to ensure on‑time delivery of practical and optimized electrical design solutions. Participate in assembly trials, manufacturing trials, and vendor visits as needed, including business travel to track/HRC or other locations. Act as a liaison between Project Management and the Design Group Lead, ensuring clear communication of project history, issues, priorities, and targets. Provide critical updates and technical information to the electrical design team and group leads. Ensure BOM and pictorials are accurately maintained and updated according to project milestones. Follow up on problem reports for responsible parts and provide timely updates during weekly review meetings. Ensure designed components meet targets set by technical management, including performance, durability, weight, cost, manufacturing, and assembly. Report design errors clearly and promptly; actively review work in progress to ensure deadlines are met. Support Design for Manufacturing (DFM) activities and perform drawing content checks prior to ECN submission.
