Join a collaborative engineering team supporting the development of next-generation vehicle electrical and electronic systems. This role offers an excellent opportunity to work alongside experienced engineers while gaining hands-on exposure to vehicle development, electrical component integration, CAD design, and cross-functional engineering activities.

You will play an active role in supporting the design, packaging, validation, and implementation of vehicle electronic components throughout the development lifecycle. The ideal candidate is detail-oriented, proactive, technically curious, and eager to take ownership of assignments while building a strong foundation in automotive engineering.

What You'll Do

• Support engineers in the development, integration, and application of vehicle electronic and electrical components.
• Assist with electrical component packaging and vehicle integration activities using CATIA V5 in both 3D and 2D environments.
• Create, update, and maintain engineering drawings, wiring specifications, parts lists, and other technical documentation.
• Perform drawing comparisons, identify design changes, and prepare reports for engineering review.
• Coordinate part orders and support build events, prototype activities, and engineering evaluations.
• Assist engineers and technicians with ECU software updates, re-flashing activities, and vehicle configuration changes.
• Track, maintain, and follow up on open engineering issues, ensuring accurate documentation and timely resolution.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams including design, manufacturing, testing, suppliers, and project stakeholders to support development objectives.
• Support engineering investigations by gathering data, documenting findings, and helping implement corrective actions.
• Contribute to continuous improvement efforts by identifying opportunities to enhance engineering processes, documentation, and communication.

What We're Looking For

• Proficiency with Microsoft Excel, Word, PowerPoint, Outlook, and Teams.
• Experience using CATIA V5 in both 3D modeling and 2D drafting environments.
• Strong analytical, problem-solving, and organizational skills.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills with the ability to work effectively across multiple teams.
• Ability to manage multiple priorities while maintaining attention to detail and accuracy.
• Self-motivated with a strong willingness to learn, take initiative, and expand technical capabilities.
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced engineering environment with evolving priorities.
• Ability to work onsite at our Saline, Michigan office five days per week.
• Flexibility to support project deadlines, including up to 30% overtime when required.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience supporting vehicle development, mechanical design, or automotive engineering projects.
• Understanding of electrical systems, wiring harnesses, electronic components, or related vehicle electrical architecture.
• Experience creating or maintaining engineering documentation, specifications, or CAD data.
• Exposure to prototype builds, validation activities, testing, or manufacturing support.
• Familiarity with engineering problem-solving methodologies and issue tracking processes.
