Saronic Technologies is seeking an Electrical Build Engineer to lead electrical build and integration efforts for autonomous surface vessels (ASVs) used in maritime defense operations. This cross-functional role bridges electrical engineering, EWIS (Electrical Wiring Interconnection Systems), mechanical engineering, and production teams to ensure vessel electrical systems are successfully integrated, tested, and delivered from development through full-rate production.
Key responsibilities include owning vessel-level electrical integration for assigned ASVs from design through installation, test, and commissioning. You will define electrical verification activities at key build milestones to catch integration issues early, maintain vessel-level EWIS CAD organization to ensure harness routing and installation documentation are accurate and buildable, and review electrical engineering packages to identify production readiness concerns before they impact the build.
You will support troubleshooting of vessel electrical systems including harness connectivity, power distribution, communications, sensors, actuators, and system-level integration issues. Additional duties include supporting electrical checkout, device bring-up, and verification activities such as pin-to-pin checks, continuity testing, power-up testing, functional system testing, and firmware flashing. You will coordinate with mechanical and EWIS teams to define brackets, clamps, penetrations, and cable-management features required for successful harness installation.
Other responsibilities include identifying and resolving non-conformances, leading root cause analysis, managing Engineering Change Orders (ECOs), participating in design reviews, supporting documentation and technical writing for regulatory bodies and client presentations, managing CAD models to document construction changes, and supporting sea trials and at-sea testing of ASVs as needed.
Requirements:
- Bachelor's degree or greater in Electrical Engineering, Electrical Engineering Technology, Mechanical Engineering, Marine Engineering, Ocean Engineering, or related field
- Strong understanding of electrical system integration including power distribution, wiring, harnesses, connectors, sensors, actuators, and electronic equipment
- Experience interpreting electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, harness drawings, interconnect diagrams, and engineering documentation
- Experience with electrical troubleshooting and test methods including continuity testing, pin-to-pin verification, power-up testing, and system-level fault isolation
- Experience with electrical wiring interconnection systems (EWIS) including harness routing, installation, termination, protection, support, and documentation
- Familiarity with 3D CAD and electrical routing tools; experience with Siemens NX or similar systems preferred
- Familiarity with maritime industry standards including ABS and U.S. Coast Guard regulations
- Experience working in a shipyard or onboard ships
- Strong communication skills across engineers, technicians, production teams, quality teams, and leadership
- Comfortable working in an industrial shipyard environment
