Requirements

What we're looking for

  • Education: Technical or higher engineering degree (Electrical, Electronic, Mechanical, Mechatronic) or equivalent higher vocational training with demonstrable experience.

  • Electrical Knowledge: Solid foundation in electricity and interpretation of electrical diagrams and schematics.

  • 3D and 2D Design: Experience in cable harness design using 3D CAD tools (such as CATIA V5/V6, NX, SolidWorks Electrical, or Creo) and generating detailed drawings.

  • Material Management: Experience in creating product structures (BOM) and liaising with electrical component suppliers.

  • Skills: Organizational ability, quality orientation, and resolution of complex technical problems.

Nice to have

  • Specific Tools (Highly Valued): Proficiency in Siemens CAPITAL Harness and CAPITAL Logic (or tools from the Capital suite).

The role

We are looking for a Cable and 3D Routing Design Engineer to join our mechanical hardware/equipment development team. You will be responsible for bringing our products' electrical systems to life, transforming logical schematics into optimized, safe 3D physical integrations ready for the manufacturing phase.

If you are passionate about electromechanical design, pay attention to detail, and have experience connecting the virtual world of CAD with the physical reality of cable harnesses, we want to meet you!

What you'll do

  • 3D Design and Routing: Develop 3D routing of cable harnesses in complex equipment environments, ensuring compliance with specifications.

  • Electrical Interpretation: Analyze and work closely with electrical and logic schematics for their correct translation into the 3D model.

  • Material Selection: Define and select the optimal wiring components (connectors, terminals, heat-shrink tubing, cable ties, cable types, etc.).

  • Technical Documentation: Generate 2D manufacturing drawings (formboard / nailboard), detail views, and precise bills of materials (BOM).

  • Interdisciplinary Collaboration: Coordinate with mechanical engineering teams.
