About The Position

We are seeking an experienced Electrical Wiring Interconnection Systems (EWIS) Design Engineer to support an aircraft engineering work package in Greensboro, NC. The role focuses on detailed wiring and harness definition as well as physical 3D harness routing and installation using CATIA. The engineer will work from customer-provided Electrical System Schematic Diagrams (ESSDs), translating them into detailed, manufacturable harness designs. This is a harness-focused design position, not an electrical power or load analysis, electrical architecture, or initial ESSD development role. The desired engineer can support both wiring diagram and Harness Definition Report (HDR) development and 3D routing and installation. Prior aircraft OEM program experience is desirable, particularly for a potential on-site coordination assignment. The engineer will define conductors, wire IDs and lengths, connector pin-outs, terminations, and grounding points; generate and maintain manufacturing-ready HDRs; and coordinate revisions and resolve discrepancies between ESSD inputs, wiring diagrams, and HDR outputs. Using CATIA, the engineer will design aircraft harness routes and installations, create installation drawings, and coordinate integration with aircraft structure and adjacent systems. The position also supports manufacturing methods, harness fabrication and installation clarification, design changes, configuration control, technical reviews, and shop-floor issue resolution. Suitably experienced candidates may coordinate on-site work-package activities, deliverables, and customer communications.

Requirements

Hands-on aerospace EWIS/harness design experience, including wiring diagrams and harness definition documentation.
Experience with connector pin assignments, wire IDs, lengths, grounding, and harness configurations.
CATIA 3D electrical harness routing and aircraft installation design experience.
Ability to interpret ESSD inputs and translate them into detailed, manufacturable harness designs.
Experience collaborating with engineering, methods, and manufacturing teams.
Ability to work on-site in Greensboro.

Nice To Haves

Previous experience supporting aircraft OEM electrical harness design and integration programs.
Direct experience spanning both wiring diagram and HDR generation and CATIA 3D harness routing.
Experience with CATIA Electrical Harness Installation or comparable workbenches.
Knowledge of applicable aircraft OEM EWIS standards, FAA requirements, and technical work-package coordination.

Responsibilities

Develop detailed wiring diagrams from customer-provided Electrical System Schematic Diagrams (ESSDs).
Define individual conductors, wire IDs, lengths, connector pin-outs, terminations, and grounding points.
Generate and maintain Harness Definition Reports (HDRs) containing wire lengths, IDs, pins, grounds, and manufacturing-ready data.
Coordinate revisions and resolve discrepancies among ESSD inputs, wiring diagrams, and HDR outputs.
Design aircraft harness routing in CATIA, including physical paths, clearances, supports, clips, and attachment points.
Produce harness installation drawings and integrate routing with aircraft structure and adjacent systems.
Apply EWIS considerations for separation, protection, accessibility, maintainability, and installation feasibility.
Collaborate with structures, systems integration, and methods/manufacturing teams to resolve installation issues.
Support methods teams in preparing harness jig boards and fabrication instructions using wiring diagrams and HDRs.
Provide engineering clarification for harness fabrication, connectorization, installation, and clipping work instructions.
Support design changes, configuration control, technical reviews, and shop-floor issue resolution.
For suitably experienced candidates, potentially coordinate on-site work-package activities, deliverables, and customer communications.
