U005 - Design Zonal Routing Engineer
Summary
Designs zonal electrical routing for next-gen vehicles using CATIA Electrical, ensuring efficient harness placement and ECU integration while collaborating with autonomy and thermal teams.
In ALTEN we are hiring a Zonal Routing Engineer to design and optimize the electrical architecture of next-gen vehicles, focusing on zonal routing, harness placement, and ECU integration. You will ensure that electrical systems are space-efficient, interference-free, and aligned with vehicle-level requirements. This role requires a detail-oriented approach and strong collaboration with autonomy, thermal, and body systems teams.
🔧 Key Responsibilities:
- Develop zonal routing strategies for electrical harnesses, ECUs, and power distribution modules.
- Perform package studies to avoid interference with chassis, battery, and thermal systems.
- Create detailed schematics and 3D models of electrical routes using CATIA Electrical.
- Collaborate with autonomy, thermal, and body teams to align electrical designs with vehicle architecture.
- Document interfaces, assumptions, and risks for electrical system integration.
- Support prototyping and validation of electrical routing solutions.
Requirements
✅ Required Skills & Qualifications:
- 3–7 years of experience in electrical routing, harness design, or zonal architecture (automotive/EV preferred).
- Expertise in CATIA Electrical/3DEXPERIENCE (mandatory for 3D routing and harness design).
- Experience with harness design tools (Capital Harness, VeSys) and EMC/EMI compliance.
- Strong attention to detail and ability to manage complex electrical interfaces.
- Fluent English (technical communication with global teams).
- Willingness to relocate to the USA (visa support available).
- Management skills: Ability to coordinate with multiple teams, manage small projects, and mentor junior engineers.
🌟 Nice-to-Have:
- Experience with high-voltage systems (48V/800V) in EVs.
- Knowledge of autonomous vehicle electrical architectures.
- Familiarity with DFMEA (Design Failure Mode and Effects Analysis).
