When you join Caterpillar, you're joining a global team who cares not just about the work we do – but also about each other. We are the makers, problem solvers, and future world builders who are creating stronger, more sustainable communities. We don't just talk about progress and innovation here – we make it happen, with our customers, where we work and live. Together, we are building a better world, so we can all enjoy living in it. Caterpillar’s Resource Industries Electrification Solutions (RIES) team is developing key technologies to help our customers build a better, more sustainable world! Our products will help shape the future of electrified mine sites around the world. As DET Sr. Engineer, you can be a part of that journey with us by providing world-class product development of innovative solutions such as Cat® Dynamic Energy Transfer (DET).

It can also charge a machine’s batteries while operating with increased speed on grade, improving operational efficiency and machine uptime. The innovative Cat DET system provides the industry with options to support both near-term and long-term sustainability strategies. You will have a pivotal role to work with Caterpillar team members in a critical and fast-paced product development function to deliver solutions that make our customers successful with sustainable site solutions.

This role is part of a high-paced high-performing team working to mature production-ready designs at a system level.
