Position Overview
We are seeking a Junior E/E Architecture & Electrical Systems Engineer to support the design, integration, and validation of production-intent vehicle electrical/electronic architectures for autonomous and software-defined vehicles. This engineer will contribute to in-vehicle network topology, ECU and centralized-compute integration, pinout definition, wiring harness design, power distribution, safety analysis, and system verification under the guidance of senior engineers. Hands-on experience contributing to automotive-grade in-vehicle network architecture design is required.
Key Responsibilities
E/E Architecture Design:
Support the vehicle E/E architecture lifecycle from concept and requirements through detailed design, integration, validation, production release, and field support.
Assist with defining and documenting scalable logical and physical architectures spanning centralized computers, domain and zonal controllers, gateways, edge ECUs, sensors, actuators, and power distribution.
Create and maintain architecture artifacts under guidance, including block diagrams, functional allocation, interface control documents, network matrices, connector definitions, and pinouts.
Contribute to trade studies covering bandwidth, latency, time synchronization, redundancy, fault tolerance, safety, cybersecurity, power, thermal limits, harness weight, cost, and scalability.
Electrical Integration & Harness Engineering: Pinout, Harness, and Platform Integration:
Assist with defining and maintaining ECU, sensor, actuator, and compute-platform pinouts, including signal types, voltage levels, current limits, wake/sleep behavior, power, grounds, and shielding requirements.
Support the design and review of low-voltage harnesses, schematics, connectors, wire gauges, splices, fusing, routing, grounding, shielding, serviceability, and manufacturing constraints.
Assist with integrating ECUs, gateways, sensors, actuators, power-distribution modules, and high-performance vehicle computers; support hardware bring-up and interface validation.
Work with suppliers and internal hardware, software, mechanical, safety, manufacturing, and vehicle-integration teams to align electrical interfaces and network requirements.
Architecture Tools and Configuration Management: Maintain architecture models, schematics, BOMs, DBC/ARXML/LDF files, interface baselines, variants, and change traceability.
Safety, Reliability & Validation:
Participate in system FMEA/DFMEA and fault-tree analyses; help identify failure modes, effects, detection mechanisms, design mitigations, safe states, and verification evidence.
Support the definition and execution of network and electrical integration tests for bandwidth, latency, bus load, time sync, power modes, diagnostics, fault injection, EMC, HIL, bench, and vehicle operation.
Assist with diagnosing cross-domain electrical, communication, and hardware/software issues using logs, network traces, measurements, and structured root-cause analysis; help drive defects to verified closure.
Collaboration and Technical Delivery:
Work with autonomy, controls, software, hardware, cybersecurity, safety, suppliers, and platform partners to implement architecture decisions, interfaces, dependencies, and changes.
Participate in design and release-readiness reviews; help maintain documentation, verification evidence, manufacturing and service inputs, and clear tracking of
