About the Role
AeroVect is transforming ground handling with autonomy, redefining how airlines and ground service providers around the globe run day-to-day operations. We are looking for a Senior or Staff Electrical Engineer to own the electrical architecture and vehicle integration systems that power our autonomous tractor platform. This role sits at the intersection of vehicle engineering, autonomy hardware and production — you will work closely with the mechanical, software and field teams and will have direct influence over what goes into the next generation of the platform.
Responsibilities
- Own the electrical architecture of the autonomous tractor platform end-to-end — including vehicle harness design, power distribution schematics, CAN bus topology, sensor integration wiring and grounding and shielding strategies.
- Design, review and maintain the vehicle wiring diagrams and electrical schematics that serve as the authoritative reference for build, integration and field servicing teams.
- Lead root cause analysis on electrical faults and system-level failures across the deployed fleet, including power distribution anomalies, control network faults, sensor failures and connector and harness degradation in harsh operational environments.
- Define and drive corrective actions from field failure analysis — working with the hardware team to translate findings into design improvements, updated build standards and fleet retrofit plans.
- Own the electrical bring-up and validation process for new vehicle platforms and major upfits, including defining acceptance criteria, commissioning procedures and electrical verification checklists.
- Work with external harness manufacturers and integration partners to define build specifications, review fabricated assemblies and qualify workmanship standards.
- Drive the selection, integration and qualification of electrical and electronic components — including connectors, power electronics, vehicle controllers, embedded compute and communication hardware — with a focus on reliability and field serviceability.
- Establish and maintain electrical design standards, labeling conventions and documentation practices that support both internal engineers and external field technicians.
- Partner with the software and autonomy teams to support hardware bring-up, sensor calibration and the debugging of issues at the hardware-software boundary.
- Contribute to the electrical architecture of next-generation vehicle platforms, including higher-voltage systems and advanced compute integration, from early concept through production release.
Requirements
- 5+ years of electrical engineering experience in a hardware-centric domain such as automotive, autonomous vehicles, robotics, aerospace or industrial equipment.
- Deep expertise in vehicle electrical systems — including harness and connector design, power distribution, CAN bus and other vehicle networking protocols and grounding and EMC practices.
- Demonstrated ability to read, create and own complex electrical schematics and wiring diagrams as a primary design deliverable.
- Strong background in electrical fault analysis and root cause investigation, with experience translating field failure data into actionable design improvements.
- Experience designing for reliability and serviceability in harsh operational environments — vibration, thermal cycling, moisture and contamination.
- Comfort working across the full product lifecycle — from architecture and design through bring-up, field deployment and sustaining engineering.
- Ability to operate independently, set technical direction and drive decisions across cross-functional teams without requiring a large team structure underneath you.
