Lead Hardware Engineer | Electrical/Mechanical (ADAS) | Remote

Lead Hardware Engineer — Electrical/Mechanical (ADAS)Remote (USA) | Quarterly Travel | Full-TimeThe OpportunityOur client is seeking a Lead Hardware Engineer to build the next generation of automotive diagnostic and ADAS calibration equipment. This is a hands-on, highly visible role for a builder who connects electrical engineering, mechanical design, embedded controls, and manufacturing, and who'll become the technical owner.What You'll Own

• Own the electrical architecture (boards, harnesses, power distribution, batteries, and sensor interfaces) from schematic review through bench bring-up and failure diagnosis
• Specify and troubleshoot embedded/PC-based controls and sensor data-acquisition systems (CAN, USB, I²C/SPI, RS-232/485); write the Python/C/C++ utilities the job needs
• Guide the mechanical design of enclosures, mounts, and fixtures, and own the alignment tolerances that determine whether a calibration is accurate
• Apply DFM/DFA early, support pilot builds and production ramp, and partner directly with fabricators, molders, and contract manufacturers
• Root-cause field and manufacturing failures and feed what you learn back into the design
• Help stand up the hardware-development function itself — standards, supplier relationships, and eventually the team around you

• 6+ years developing electromechanical products, with real electrical depth and meaningful mechanical responsibility
• At least one physical product you personally carried from requirements through production and field support
• Hands-on bench skill — schematic/board review, harness fab, soldering/rework, confident with a DMM, scope, and logic analyzer
• Practical 3D CAD with real GD&T and tolerance-analysis capability
• A builder mentality: hands-on while setting direction, challenging suppliers, and developing others

Automotive & ADAS ExperienceThis role calls for an automotive-minded engineer who's comfortable around vehicle sensor systems and the tight tolerances that calibration work demands — someone who's worked close to ADAS hardware or vehicle electronics and picks up vehicle communication protocols quickly.
