What You'Ll Do

: This engineer will own electrical interconnect design across our actuation product lines, with primary focus on our production aerospace power electronics and actuation systems. This role bridges design, qualification, and production. You will perform harness design on complex programs end-to-end, author functional test procedures, support qualification testing, and work with suppliers to drive integration and first article inspection.

This is a hands-on role for an engineer who wants to work on full-stack hardware in a fast-moving environment with potential customer-facing opportunities. You will work closely with our electrical hardware engineering, motor control, and mechanical engineering teams, and will interface directly with seat OEM customers during ITCM and with DERs during qualification and certification. Perform wire harness design for aerospace actuation systems on complex programs, from schematic through manufacturing release.

Develop and maintain harness documentation including schematics, wire lists, drawings, and bills of material. Author functional test procedures for harness assemblies and integrated systems. Support qualification testing, including DO-160 environmental, MIL-STD-461 EMI/EMC, and program-specific qualification plans.

Work with suppliers to oversee initial build, first article inspection (AS9102), and production readiness. Own supplier technical qualification and ongoing supplier engineering support for harness assemblies. Collaborate with DERs during qualification and certification activities.

Partner with motor control, firmware, and mechanical engineering teams to ensure harness design integrates cleanly with the broader system. Drive design for manufacturability, cost, and reliability across the harness portfolio. Up to 35% travel (domestic/international customer and supplier sites).

What you need: Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering Technology, or related engineering field. Equivalent professional experience considered in lieu of degree. Minimum 3 years of professional experience in commercial aerospace wire harness design.

Experience authoring functional test procedures and supporting qualification testing. S. Person status as defined under ITAR/EAR.

Nice To Have

: Aircraft seat program experience (major plus, potential difference-maker). Experience designing harnesses with Rapid Harness, or equivalent electrical CAD tools such as Mentor Capital, Zuken E3, or Creo Schematics. Experience supporting AS9102 first article inspection for suppliers and/or customers.

Direct experience with Boeing D6 series wiring standards and the Airbus equivalent (such as ABD0100 or A350 wiring standards). Familiarity with CAN bus and matrix communication architectures. Experience working with DERs through certification.

Prior experience in a startup or fast-moving product development environment. What we have to offer: We are not just building components. We are reshaping the future of the Aerospace and Defense component industry, which is a $300B+ market!
