Description

You'll architect, design, test, and deliver the complete electrical power system for a diesel-electric tractor platform used in the LaserWeeder. This includes high-voltage distribution networks, battery management systems, and safety interlocks, ensuring reliable and safe operation in harsh farm environments.

Requirements

• 8-15 years experience designing vehicle power distribution systems for EVs, hybrids, or heavy high-voltage equipment
• Expert proficiency in Capital Harness (or similar) for wiring design and analytical design optimization tools
• Expertise in high-voltage DC systems design, isolation requirements, and safety standards (ECE R100, ISO 6469)
• Proficiency in automotive wiring standards, connector systems, and harness design for high-power applications
• BS+ in Electrical Engineering with focus on power systems, automotive engineering, or related field

Responsibilities

• Design high-voltage (400-800V DC) and low-voltage (12/24V) power distribution architectures for diesel-electric platforms
• Develop power management strategies to optimize energy flow between diesel generator and vehicle loads
• Create electrical distribution systems including bus bars, contactors, fuses, and circuit protection
• Implement safety systems including ground fault detection, isolation monitoring, and emergency shutdown circuits
• Integrate power distribution with vehicle CAN networks for real-time monitoring and diagnostics
