  • Location: 300 Lincoln Centre (fully onsite)

  • Schedule: Monday to Friday / 9:00 am - 6:00 pm

  • Client is seeking an Electrical Engineer to support Design for Serviceability efforts, ensuring electrical and electronic systems are easy to diagnose, maintain, and repair.

  • The role focuses on evaluating diagnostics and vehicle troubleshooting documents.

  • The engineer will collaborate with cross functional teams and work closely with field technicians to develop and refine diagnostic strategies and tools that improve the serviceability and maintainability of Client products.

Responsibilities:

  • Establish relationships with Manufacturing, Validation, Product Development teams, to drive Serviceability requirements (Design for Serviceability) for every electronic control module and I/O.

  • Work closely with the Service Documentation team to develop diagnostic, programming, and repair procedures.

  • Evaluate electronic controls for part design interchangeability, HW/FW/SW compatibility, and bring-up requirements after replacement, in support of spare part and data file release strategy.

  • Collaboratively design, develop, and validate the on-board and off-board diagnostic test tools for reporting diagnostic codes/messages/alerts, associated I/O data parameters, and control functions for insourced and outsourced controllers.

  • Support wiring system serviceability (bundle routing, connectors, terminals, retention clips, etc) and schematic development for ease of troubleshooting and repair.

  • Work closely with engineering teams to integrate components and electromechanical systems.

  • Participate in requirements definition as it pertains to service, availability of the product, and reliability and report significant deviations for resolution.

Qualifications:

  • Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering with 2 to 4 years of related industry experience

Practice Questions

💡Technical Questions (3)
  • 1.How do you approach evaluating an electronic control module for hardware, firmware, and software compatibility when planning a spare part release strategy?
  • 2.Can you explain your experience with vehicle communication networking protocols and how they impact the design of on-board and off-board diagnostic tools?
  • 3.When reviewing an electrical schematic for serviceability, what specific elements do you look for to ensure the wiring system is easy to troubleshoot and repair in the field?
🎯Behavioral Questions (3)
  • 1.Tell me about a time you had to establish a relationship with a Product Development team to drive Serviceability requirements for a new design.
  • 2.Describe a situation where you had to work closely with field technicians to refine a diagnostic strategy or tool.
  • 3.Give an example of a project where you had to manage your tasks autonomously while coordinating with multiple cross-functional teams like Manufacturing and Validation.
🧩Situational Questions (2)
  • 1.You are evaluating a new electronic controller and realize that the bring-up requirements after replacement are overly complex, which will cause significant downtime for field technicians. The Product Development team is reluctant to change the design. How do you handle this?
  • 2.You discover a significant deviation in a wiring harness routing that violates serviceability requirements and makes a critical connector nearly impossible to access for repair. The vehicle is already in the Validation phase. What steps do you take?
