• Develop and release wiring diagrams, wire lists, connector pinout tables, and grounding schemes
• Select wire type, gauge, connectors, contacts, backshells, and sealing
• Specify and qualify crimp tooling, dies, and calibration regimes
• Design to safety-class requirements and maintain design records and traceability
• Define and improve the harness design review and release process
• Partner with software engineers to improve harness design toolchains and automation
• Support supplier selection, qualification, and technical communication
• Manage the harness BOM and material readiness
• Direct in-house harnessing technicians and manage shop floor builds

Required qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field, or equivalent practical experience

• Demonstrated experience with harness component selection
• Demonstrated knowledge of IPC/WHMA-A-620 and harness workmanship, inspection, and electrical test practice
• Experience designing and releasing hardware under a formal quality program, NQA-1, 10 CFR 50 Appendix B, AS9100, or comparable
• Experience directing technicians or build teams
• Direct experience working with external harness or electrical panel suppliers

Nice to have

• Experience with hardware destined for safety-class or safety-related service
• Familiarity with commercial grade dedication and 10 CFR 21
• Familiarity with IEEE 323, IEEE 383, IEEE 384, or SAE AS50881 / NASA-STD-8739.4
• Experience with high-voltage and/or high-current power distribution harnessing
• Experience as a tool owner or admin
• Experience building or overhauling a design release process
• Working knowledge of ERP/MRP systems
