Electrical System Architect

Job Title: Electrical System Architect

Job Location: Arden NC

Job Description:

• Able to evaluate the current system architecture then make strategy for integration of individual components into the full engine.
• Provide strategy for high voltage vs low voltage safety in terms of layout.
• Advise high level diagrams/ schematics to give team clear direction.
• System Design and Architecture:
• Develop electrical system architectures that meet product requirements and specifications.
• Define the systemlevel electrical components interfaces and interconnections.
• Conduct tradeoff analysis to optimize system performance cost and reliability.

Requirements Analysis:

• Work closely with stakeholders to understand and define system requirements.
• Translate highlevel requirements into detailed electrical specifications.
• Ensure that the electrical system design aligns with overall project goals and timelines.
• Component Selection and Integration:
• Evaluate and select electrical components such as microcontrollers sensors actuators and power supplies.
• Oversee the integration of components into the system architecture.
• Conduct compatibility testing and troubleshooting to resolve integration issues.

Safety and Compliance:

• Ensure that electrical systems comply with relevant safety standards and regulations.
• Identify potential safety hazards and implement appropriate mitigation measures.
• Collaborate with regulatory agencies to obtain certifications and approvals as needed.

Documentation and Reporting:
