Electronics Engineer - Part-Time

Xsquare is seeking a detail-oriented Electronics Engineer to join our hardware team on a part-time basis. This role is critical in transitioning our autonomous forklift designs into a formalized, production-ready ecosystem. You will be responsible for digitizing schematic designs, managing complex cable harnesses, and ensuring our Bill of Materials (BOM) is flawless within the 3DEXPERIENCE platform.

Key Responsibilities

• ECAD Design & Integration: Capture and refine schematic designs and intricate cable harnesses using Solidworks Electrical.

• Data Synchronization: Migrate and manage design data within the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, ensuring seamless integration between electrical and mechanical 3D environments.

• Component Management: Audit existing designs to identify missing or incorrect part numbers. Research and update the database with accurate specifications and manufacturer data.

• Production Readiness: Generate comprehensive BOMs (Bill of Materials), manage version control (check-in/check-out processes), and assist in formalizing physical assembly designs.

• Iterative Maintenance: Collaborate with the troubleshooting team to update electrical designs in real-time as hardware modifications are made during testing.

Qualifications & Skills

• Education: Degree in Electrical/Electronics Engineering, Mechatronics, or currently enrolled in a relevant program (for interns).

• Software Expertise: * Essential: Proficiency in Solidworks Electrical (2D/3D).

  • Platform: Experience with or a quick ability to learn Dassault Systèmes 3DEXPERIENCE.

• Technical Knowledge: * Understanding of cable harness routing and connector selection.

  • Familiarity with industrial electronics, sensors, and power distribution.

• Attributes: High attention to detail (specifically regarding part numbers and documentation) and the ability to work independently in a fast-paced robotics environment.

Bonus Points (Highly Desirable)

• Embedded Systems: Experience with embedded C/C++ coding.

• Microcontrollers: Hands-on experience with STM32 or similar ARM Cortex-M architectures.

• Protocols: Familiarity with communication protocols such as CAN bus, UART, I2C, or SPI (crucial for forklift sensor/actuator integration).
