Electrical Wiring Harness Architect (Zuken E3 Specialist)

Job Description

Job DescriptionLead the Architecture of High-Volume Electrical Harnesses

Step into a role where you are the resident Zuken expert guiding end-to-end wiring harness and supporting PCBA design for products built at scale. You will translate requirements into manufacturable schematics, layouts, and complete build packages while partnering with cross-functional teams to deliver reliable, mass-produced hardware.

A Day in the Life

• Transform product requirements into detailed harness schematics, 2D layouts, pinout tables, and assembly drawings using Zuken.
• Define wire gauges, shielding, grounding strategies, and connector interfaces with an eye toward electrical integrity and environmental needs.
• Develop and maintain PCBA schematics and layouts that interface cleanly with the harness architecture.
• Generate manufacturing-ready documentation and BOMs that enable smooth, high-yield production.
• Select components and connectors based on electrical, mechanical, environmental, and factory constraints.
• Champion reliability, manufacturability, and certification-readiness in every design decision.
• Collaborate with mechanical, manufacturing, test, and quality teams to de-risk builds and scale to volume.

What You’ll Own

• End-to-end electrical wire harness design for high-volume production.
• Schematic creation, harness layout, and assembly documentation in Zuken.
• PCBA schematic and layout development aligned to harness interfaces.
• Design choices that meet reliability, manufacturability, and certification targets.

Must-Have Qualifications

• Subject Matter Expert proficiency in Zuken; you operate independently without design hand-holding.
• Proven track record delivering complete harness designs and documentation.
• Hands-on PCBA schematic and layout experience.
• Deep command of core electrical principles: voltage/current behavior, grounding strategies, basic EM physics.
• Fluency in harness component and connector selection criteria.
• Knowledge of harness assembly methods and manufacturing processes.
• Strong grasp of PCBA fundamentals (schematic capture and layout).

Preferred Background

• Automotive or other high-volume manufacturing domains.
• Experience launching products at massive scale (millions of units).
• Demonstrated focus on reliability, manufacturability, and scalability.

Bonus Knowledge

• IP ratings and strategies for environmental protection.
• Electrical certification considerations.
• DFM and DFA best practices.
