Electrical Engineer

Perform all aspects of automotive harness development using Siemens Capital CAE harness design tools. Reference or import harness data from Catia v5/v6 to extract 3D routing. Reference or import logical network data from EAZ to extract connectivity and electrical characteristic aspects of existing harness designs.

Logical Architecture & System Design

• Logical wiring architecture models developed in Siemens Capital
• Power and ground distribution
• Signal and communication networks (Direct, CAN, LIN, Ethernet, FlexRay)
• Functional connectivity definitions between ECUs, sensors, actuators, and loads
• Logical signal lists and port definitions with complete electrical attributes
• System-level design validation outputs (completeness, connectivity consistency, rule compliance)

Physical Harness Design

• Physical harness designs in Siemens Capital
• Equivalent in scope and engineering intent to CATIA/EAZ designs
• Harness topology and routing definitions
• Bundle structure, splices, branches, and breakouts
• In-vehicle routing intent by zone (body, IP, doors, engine bay, rear)
• Connector and terminal assignments with correct cavity usage and keying
• Wire and cable definitions including gauge, color, material, shielding, and twist rules

Capital-Generated Manufacturing Outputs

• 2D harness drawings suitable for manufacturing and supplier release
• Harness and vehicle-level Bill of Materials (BOMs)
• Wire lists and cut-length reports
• Connectivity and net reports
• Splice and joint tables
• Shielding and grounding reports
• Change-controlled design datasets for release management

End-to-End Harness Execution Packages

• Complete end-to-end Capital execution
• Logical design → physical harness design → manufacturing outputs
• Production-ready harness datasets
• Align to active vehicle development programs
• Validation- Capital outputs meet OEM production release requirements
