Description

Join our Team as a Electrical Hardware Systems Engineer – IoT Innovation! The Role: We are seeking a passionate and dedicated Electrical Hardware Systems Engineer to play a pivotal role in the design, development, and integration of advanced electrical platforms within complex electro-mechanical systems. In this position, you won’t just be designing circuit - you’ll define system requirements, drive multi-domain integration, and collaborate closely with firmware and systems engineering teams to bring intelligent equipment to life. This is a strategic and technical role for engineers who thrive in cross-functional environments and are passionate about delivering reliable, scalable hardware solutions for embedded, connected systems. What You’ll Be Doing: * Define and decompose product requirements into clear, testable electrical system specifications. * Design robust hardware solutions including power systems, sensor interfaces, and communication buses (CAN, SPI, I2C, UART). * Lead system-level integration, ensuring seamless coordination between hardware, firmware, and mechanical domains to meet performance, safety, and compliance targets. * Collaborate with embedded firmware teams to define hardware/Software interfaces, support board bring-up, and validate functional integration through joint debugging and test cycles. * Create and maintain technical documentation, such as block diagrams, DFMEAs, ICDs, and verification plans. * Participate in architecture reviews, design risk assessments, and root cause investigations. * Support EMC, thermal, and regulatory validation, coordinating with compliance and test labs. * Champion continuous improvement in hardware development processes and configuration management to ensure quality and repeatability. What We’re Looking For: * Bachelor’s degree in Electrical, Computer, or Electronics Engineering. * 10+ years of experience in hardware systems engineering or embedded hardware development * Proven ability to translate high-level system requirements into detailed hardware architectures. * Expertise in analog and digital circuit design, PCB schematic development, and embedded system bring-up. * Skilled in debugging hardware/software interfaces using scopes, logic analyzers, and embedded tools. * Experience with integration of electrical hardware into complex systems, ideally involving motors, sensors, actuators, and connectivity modules. * Familiarity with EMC/EMI design practices, thermal considerations, and regulatory testing. * Excellent documentation, organizational, and collaboration skills. * A strategic thinker who excels at articulating technical concepts and collaborating with diverse, cross-cultural teams. * Availability for regular onsite engagement in support of hardware testing and system validation. What Sets You Apart: * 15+ years in hardware systems engineering and embedded hardware design * Prior experience designing for forklifts, off-highway vehicles, or other rugged environments. * Exposure to C/C++ firmware development or firmware code reviews. * Experience with RF/antenna systems, telematics, or wireless module integration (GNSS, Cellular, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth). * Track record supporting regulatory compliance across multiple markets. Where and When You’ll Work: * This is an in-person role located at our Columbus, Indiana office—ideal for those who thrive in a hands-on, team-oriented environment. What Your Total Compensation & Benefits Package will look like: Salary - $133,600 - $171,200 per year. Compensation depends on the selected candidate’s education and experience. Relocation: This role may be eligible for relocation assistance. World Class Benefits: * Competitive Salary * Performance Bonus * Generous Paid Time Off and 13 Paid Holidays * Affordable Medical plans and no-cost Dental & Vision options * 100% 401(k) match up to 6% * Company-Paid Life Insurance, Short-Term Disability, and Long-Term Disability * Tuition Assistance Program * Employee Assistance Program (EAP) with access to mental health care, legal support, and financial guidance * Recognition and Kaizen (continuous improvement) Reward Programs * Meaningful opportunities for personal and professional development * Onsite Fitness Center & Occupational Health Clinic * Best in class work culture!
