What You Will Be Doing

As a Senior Electrical Systems Engineer, you will be at the center of bringing our next-generation fusion machine hardware to life. You’ll own the integration of electrical subsystems into a cohesive, reliable system, ensuring that power, control, and communication networks work seamlessly together. You’ll design and deliver the electrical harnesses that connect our machines, manage the interfaces between disciplines through clear requirements and ICDs, and work directly with suppliers to bring critical hardware into production. This role blends detailed hands-on engineering with system-level ownership, ideal for engineers who thrive at both detail and system scales. You will report to the Electrical Engineering Lead, and this is an onsite role located at our Everett, WA office.

Lead the design, documentation, and validation of electrical harnesses, ensuring manufacturability, reliability, and compliance with standards

Collaborate with and manage harness suppliers—delivering build packages, reviewing prototypes, and qualifying production deliveries

Work hands-on in the lab during system bring-up, debugging integration issues, and validating end-to-end functionality

Partner with cross-functional teams to ensure subsystem designs align with top-level system goals and requirements

Drive continuous improvement in integration processes, test strategies, and documentation practices
