Electrical Systems & Manufacturing Engineer Role Purpose  Serve as the company-wide technical authority for electrical systems while also owning the manufacturability, repeatability, tooling, and quality of electrical/harness assembly processes.  What You Own  * Company electrical architecture and engineering standards across 12V, 48V, and AC systems.  * Wiring schematics, harness architecture, harness design standards, and electrical BOM/specification discipline.  * Battery/energy storage, solar, inverter/charger, DC/DC, HVAC electrical integration, and communications/CAN where applicable.  * Electrical safety, compliance support, validation requirements, and component standardization.  * Manufacturing engineering for the harness department, including fixtures, tooling, test equipment, error-proofing, and end-of-line testing.  Key Responsibilities  * Develop and maintain electrical architecture, schematics, harness designs, specifications, and design standards.  * Partner with brand Product Engineers & Suppliers partners to translate product requirements into safe, robust electrical systems.  * Lead next-generation electrical system development where appropriate.  * Engineer harness manufacturing methods, fixtures, test systems, assembly processes, and quality controls.  * Standardize components and interfaces across brands where doing so improves reliability, cost, service, or supply resilience.  * Support electrical prototypes, validation, troubleshooting, field failures, supplier issues, and corrective actions.  * Develop electrical diagnostic standards and production/end-of-line test methods.  * Lead training for all electrical installation techs.  Cross-Functional Responsibilities  * Maintain a strong technical working relationship with all Sr. Product Engineers; organizational reporting to Operations does not change the role’s authority over shared electrical architecture, standards, schematics, harness engineering, and electrical validation requirements.  * All Sr. Product Engineers on product electrical requirements and integration.  * Manufacturing Engineering and the harness department on process capability, tooling, fixtures, and test.  * Quality on electrical validation, failure analysis, compliance evidence, and corrective actions.  * Supply Chain on electrical suppliers, components, alternates, and technical approvals.  * Service on diagnostics, field failures, and serviceability improvements.  Qualifications & Experience  * Offgrid/Adventure Vehicle power systems.  * Typically, 3-5 + years of electrical systems engineering experience in vehicles, RVs, marine, industrial equipment, energy systems, or other complex manufactured products.  * Strong capability in wiring schematics, harness design, DC power systems, batteries, charging, protection, grounding, and electrical troubleshooting.  * Experience with Victron custom power systems, lithium battery systems, inverters/chargers, solar, CAN/communications, and AC integration highly desirable.  * Practical manufacturing engineering experience with harness assembly, fixtures, test equipment, error-proofing, and production quality.  * Nice to have but not required - Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, mechatronics, electromechanical engineering, or closely related discipline. What Success Looks Like  * Electrical architecture becomes standardized, documented, and scalable across brands.  * Electrical and harness-related production defects and field failures decline.  * Advanced power systems are developed with disciplined safety and validation.  * Harness manufacturing is repeatable, testable, efficient, and well-tooled.  * Brand teams receive strong electrical expertise without duplicating electrical roles.  Operating principle: Own the electrical ecosystem from schematic to harness station to field performance.    How to Apply:  Apply on-line from our website www.amlrv.com under Careers and Opportunities.
