Senior Electrical Drafter

Responsibilities

• Prepare detailed harness assembly drawing packages in Zuken E3, ensuring drawings contain all information required for manufacturing and installation (wire lists, connector callouts, labels, notes).
• Define and maintain best practices for: 3D harness routing and packaging in NX, 2D harness assembly drawings in Zuken E3, Manufacturing-ready documentation and release quality.
• Review and approve CAD models and harness assembly drawings for correctness, clarity, completeness, and manufacturability.
• Act as an escalation point for complex routing, packaging, and documentation challenges; partner closely with EWIS and EE engineers to ensure accurate translation of design intent.
• Optimize drafting workflows, automation, and data consistency across NX, Zuken E3, and PLM/configuration management systems.
• Interface with manufacturing and integration teams to prevent documentation-driven build and service issues; incorporate build feedback into standards and deliverables.
• Train, mentor, and enable the drafting team on tools, standards, and processes; raise overall quality and throughput.
• Support design reviews by proactively identifying CAD, routing, and documentation risks and driving resolution.

Qualifications

• Experience: 7-12+ years of CAD and harness documentation experience with sustained technical leadership.
• Expert proficiency with Siemens NX and Zuken E3 (or equivalent toolsets), including standards management and library/template ownership.
• Deep knowledge of EWIS/harness design principles, manufacturability, and configuration control (redlines/ECOs/release discipline).
• Demonstrated ability to review and approve complex harness routing and documentation with high quality and minimal oversight.
• Strong cross-functional communication skills and ability to drive alignment between engineering and manufacturing.
• Working knowledge of industry standards such as IPC/WHMA-A-620; familiarity with ABYC and ABS standards is a plus.
• Ability to mentor others and improve team practices, tooling, and documentation quality at scale.
