A Preevision job typically involves working with PREEvision, a model-based tool used for designing and managing automotive E/E (electrical/electronic) architectures. Professionals in this role use PREEvision to develop wiring diagrams, network communication designs, and system architectures for vehicles. They often collaborate with design engineers and software developers to ensure efficient and optimized electrical systems. This job is common in the automotive industry, particularly in companies focusing on systems engineering and embedded software development.
A PREEvision Engineer is typically responsible for creating and managing E/E architectures using the PREEvision tool, defining system components, and ensuring compliance with automotive standards such as AUTOSAR. Daily tasks often include collaborating with systems engineers, software developers, and project managers to align architecture models with project requirements. They also review models for consistency, perform updates based on design changes, and help resolve integration challenges. This role offers a dynamic workflow where communication and precision are key, and it provides significant opportunities to impact the efficiency and reliability of new vehicle systems.
To excel in a PREEvision Engineer role, candidates should have a solid background in electrical engineering, automotive systems, and experience with embedded systems design. Proficiency in the PREEvision tool suite for E/E architecture modeling and familiarity with standards like AUTOSAR are typically required. Strong analytical skills, attention to detail, and collaborative communication are important soft skills in this position. These abilities ensure accurate system modeling, effective teamwork, and successful implementation of complex automotive electrical architectures.

As an EDS Integration Engineer for the Advanced EV Team, you will be at the forefront of defining the "nervous system" for our next-generation Model e products. You will be responsible for the end-to-end vehicle-side electrical wire harness design and physical integration, serving as a critical link between architectural theory and vehicle reality. This role is essential to the development of a Software-Defined Vehicle (SDV), where you will optimize the intersection of hardware, software, and mechanical packaging. You will collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure the harness architecture is efficient, manufacturable, and robust, while remaining hands-on during lab-car and vehicle "bring-up" phases to troubleshoot and validate your designs.
Minimum Requirements:
Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics Engineering, or a related technical field.
5+ years of experience in EDS design and development within the automotive, aerospace, or complex robotics industries.
5+ years of hands-on experience with professional EDS ECAD tooling (e.g., Mentor Capital, Zuken E3, or Vector Preevision).
Proven experience in a mass-production environment, taking a product from initial concept through Job 1/launch.
Deep understanding of Electrical Engineering fundamentals (Ohm's Law, voltage drop, thermal management, and circuit protection).
Preferred Requirements:
Advanced EV Expertise: Experience with High Voltage (HV) DC power distribution and the challenges of integrating diverse voltage architectures.
Data Integrity: Familiarity with high-speed data requirements, including shielding, twisting, and connector selection for Automotive Ethernet or LVDS.
Prototyping Skills: Experience with vehicle instrumentation (data loggers, current clamps, oscilloscopes) in a controlled lab or test-track environment.
Agile Mindset: Familiarity with Confluence and Jira for task management in a fast-paced, iterative development cycle.
Complexity Management: Demonstrated ability to manage high-variant harness architectures and "feature-to-pin" mapping.
Analytical Rigor: Experience performing DFM (Design for Manufacturing) and DFMEA (Design Failure Mode and Effects Analysis) to ensure long-term reliability.
Communication: Strong written and verbal communication skills with an eagerness to work cross-functionally in a dynamic, high-performing team environment
