Groupe SEGULA Technologies SA in Mexico is seeking a Design Release Engineer (DRE) for Electrical & Electronics to own the full lifecycle of EECI components from concept through production release. The role combines engineering leadership with hands-on validation, including bench tests and vehicle-level validation, while allowing remote work and occasional travel to plants and suppliers in Mexico.
You will coordinate with system architects, drive DFMs with Tier-1 partners, manage ECOs in PLM,
We are seeking a highly skilled Design Release Engineer (DRE) – Electrical & Electronics (EECI) to lead the design, release, integration, and validation of complex vehicle electrical systems and electronic control units.
In this senior role, you will be responsible for end-to-end component ownership within the EECI scope (Electrical / Electronic Component Integration)—spanning electronic modules, wire harnesses, sensors, distribution boxes, and CAN/LIN network interfaces. You will work remotely while maintaining flexibility to travel to assembly plants and supplier locations across Mexico to support prototype builds, testing, and production launches.
End-to-End Component Ownership: Lead the complete engineering lifecycle—from concept definition and packaging through tooling, validation, production release, and running changes for assigned EECI components and electronic modules.
Architecture & Harness Integration: Collaborate with Electrical System Architects to integrate modules, sensors, power distribution systems, and complex wiring harness architectures into the vehicle platform.
Supplier Management & DFM: Direct Tier-1 electrical and electronic component suppliers through Design for Manufacturability (DFM) reviews, tool timing, functional requirements, and deliverable tracking.
Validation & DVP&R: Define and execute Design Verification Plans & Reports (DVP&R). Lead bench testing, hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing, and vehicle-level functional validation for low‑voltage (LV) and high‑voltage (HV) electrical systems.
On‑Site Plant & Launch Support: Travel to assembly plants in Mexico during prototype (TT/PP) and ramp‑up (MP1/MP2) phases to troubleshoot electrical interference, harness routing issues, line diagnostics, and assembly bottlenecks.
Issue Resolution & Quality: Lead root‑cause analysis (8D, 5‑Why, Fishbone) for electrical failure modes, DTC warnings, and manufacturing quality issues, managing Engineering Change Orders (ECOs/ECRs) in PLM systems.
