Key Responsibilities

• Lead the integration of electrical, electronic, and control systems across vehicle platforms.
• Develop and maintain system architecture, interface control documents, and integration plans.
• Support the design and testing of CAN bus networks, PLC systems, sensors, and vehicle control units (VCUs).
• Conduct system-level testing, fault diagnostics, and performance validation.
• Collaborate with software and hardware teams to resolve technical issues and optimize system performance.
• Ensure all systems comply with industry safety standards, EMC/EMI requirements, and functional safety protocols (ISO 13849 / ISO 26262).
• Participate in design reviews, risk assessments, and technical documentation.
• Provide on-site support during vehicle commissioning, trials, and maintenance activities when required.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree (or higher) in Electrical, Mechatronic, Control Systems, or Automotive Engineering (or equivalent).
• Proven experience in systems integration for heavy, mobile, or underground equipment.
• Strong knowledge of vehicle electrical systems, control architectures, CAN communication (J1939), and diagnostics tools.
