Re:Build Manufacturing is revitalizing America's manufacturing base through an advanced, end-to-end manufacturing platform serving aerospace and defense, electrification, medical, energy, and robotics sectors. Re:Build Battery Solutions, a division focused on lithium-ion battery pack design, development, and manufacturing, is seeking an Electrical Engineer to play a pivotal role in designing and developing advanced battery systems.
In this role, you will define system architecture for high- and low-voltage distribution, create electrical schematics for battery pack systems including sensors, contactors, fuses, connectors, and control electronics, and select and integrate electronics hardware such as current sensors, power electronics, and microcontrollers. You will perform thermal and power dissipation analyses to ensure reliable operation across environmental and load conditions, support circuit design and validation through simulation and bench testing, and ensure safety and compliance with standards like ISO 26262 and UL.
You will support all phases of the program lifecycle—from concept design through prototyping, validation, and launch—working cross-functionally with mechanical, software, program management, and manufacturing teams. Additional responsibilities include developing validation test plans, analyzing data, troubleshooting electrical issues, and communicating technical findings to customers, suppliers, and internal leadership.
The position is based at the Pittsburgh, PA plant. Re:Build offers employee ownership and profit-sharing at all levels, comprehensive benefits including medical, dental, vision, retirement, and paid time off, and the opportunity to contribute to strengthening the US battery value chain.

- 4+ years of engineering experience in automotive, aerospace, industrial, or related sectors
- Strong proficiency in electrical system design and schematic capture
- Knowledge of electronics hardware thermal management and power dissipation analysis
- Experience with component selection and integration for high-voltage and low-voltage systems
- Familiarity with high-voltage safety standards, EMC/EMI practices, and grounding/shielding
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills
- Strong problem-solving skills and ability to work in fast-paced, cross-functional environments
- Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering or related discipline with strong emphasis on practical application and systems design
- U.S. citizen, national, permanent resident, or lawfully admitted refugee/asylee (export control requirement)
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS:
- M.S. or Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering or related discipline
- Hands-on experience with battery management systems (BMS), control algorithms, or embedded electronics
- Background in functional safety (ISO 26262) or equivalent standards
