Electrical Designer III - Project Based

Autonomous Solutions • Mendon, UT

8d • $30 - $40 • Hybrid

About The Position

This is a project-based employee role supporting the design, integration, and validation of ASI's autonomous reach stacker platforms. Development phases of this nature typically continue through project completion, often spanning two to four years, although scope and duration are determined by business and customer needs.

The Electrical Designer II supports the design, documentation, integration, and release of electrical systems for ASI's autonomous reach stacker platforms. This role creates and maintains electrical drawings, wiring diagrams, harness documentation, panel layouts, installation details, bills of materials, and related technical documentation needed to build, test, and support autonomous heavy equipment.

As a Level II designer, this position independently completes defined electrical design and documentation tasks while working under the guidance of electrical engineers and senior technical team members. The role supports the integration of sensors, computers, controllers, power distribution, communication networks, safety circuits, and vehicle interfaces required for autonomous reach stacker operation in container-handling and material-handling environments.
