Harness Engineer II-III

Position: Harness Engineer II-IIILocation: Centennial, CO or Long Beach, CAOnsite: Up to 20% travelContract to hire: 5 months Hourly Rate: 43-79/hrSalary: $90,000–$165,000 base salaryEquity + benefitsDay-to-Day ResponsibilitiesThe Electrical Engineer II–III, Harness will support the design, development, fabrication, and integration of electrical harness assemblies for spacecraft and defense applications. This individual will create 3D harness routing while accounting for bend radius, signal separation, packaging, and vehicle integration constraints; develop 2D detailed drawings, electrical interconnect diagrams, and schematics; define point-to-point power and data connections; select appropriate piece parts and materials; and generate harness Bills of Materials. The engineer will work closely with senior harness engineers, electrical and mechanical engineering teams, supply chain, procurement, production, quality, and vehicle integration teams to support harness fabrication and resolve design or integration issues. They will also contribute to design best practices, standardized engineering data packages, manufacturability, integration, and reusable harness solutions while receiving opportunities for increasing design ownership.
