Electrical Technician III - Project Based

Autonomous Solutions

About The Position

This is a project-based employee role supporting the initial development phase of our autonomous vehicle platforms. Development phases of this nature typically span up to project completion (typically 2–4 years), though scope and duration are driven by business needs. JOB SUMMARY The Electrical Technician III supports the integration, testing, and troubleshooting of electrical systems used in ASI's autonomous vehicle platforms. This role bridges electrical assembly and engineering by supporting complex harness integration, diagnosing electrical issues, and assisting with validation of vehicle electrical systems. As a Level III technician, this position works extensively with wiring harness systems and electrical components installed on prototype and production vehicle platforms. The role collaborates closely with electrical engineers and assemblers to ensure electrical systems are properly integrated, tested, and operating reliably in both laboratory and field environments.
