## Description

Join our team as an Electrical Design Engineer, helping champion the development of low voltage electrical systems/components across our motorcycle portfolio. This position will collaborate with a global engineering development team to develop and validate component designs and ensure electrical functions meet H-D performance, quality, and cost benchmarks. This role requires hands-on problem solving, design rigor, and strong organizational skills to drive successful development of a wide-range of electrical system components., * Develop electrical component designs and test plans with global engineering partner and approve designs for production.

 * Resolve technical issues by applying problem-solving techniques, collecting data, and facilitating cross-functional support from the Engineering and Test organizations.
 * Support vehicle-level system integration activities, regulatory homologation events, pre-production vehicle builds, and vehicle launch builds.
 * Decompose high-level requirements into system-level requirements across multiple motorcycle domains, which may include:
 + Powertrain and engine control functions
 + Lighting and electrical subsystem behaviors
 + Ride mode management and vehicle configuration strategies
 + Enhanced chassis control systems (ABS, traction, stability, braking)
 + Rider interface, sensor integration, and other embedded functions
 * Ensure that system requirements are traceable, testable, and aligned with program goals throughout the product lifecycle.
 * Collaborate with development and test teams to drive robust systems verification plan that meets program milestones for DV, PV, SOP.
 * Oversee component design decisions to ensure achievement of all program-level requirements with emphasis on simplification and optimization.
