Wiring / Integration Engineer (Avionics)

Be the Hands That Build Our Aircraft

This is not a desk job. We are looking for a hands-on engineer who will be the master builder of our aircraft's electrical nervous system. You will be on the shop floor, physically installing avionics components and bringing our flight control systems to life. Your mission is to take electrical schematics and turn them into flight-ready, high-reliability wiring harnesses. From crimping a pin and mounting a flight computer to integrating an 800V power bus, your work is the critical link between design and flight.

About The EPlane Company

The ePlane Company is at the forefront of India's urban air mobility revolution. Incubated at IIT Madras, we are a deep-tech startup dedicated to designing and building the world's most compact electric flying taxi. Our mission is to make door-to-door flying a reality, drastically reducing commute times and decongesting our cities for a cleaner, greener future. We're a passionate team of engineers, designers, and visionaries working on cutting-edge technology, and we're looking for brilliant minds to help us take flight.

Roles And Responsibilities

As the Avionics Wiring / Integration Engineer, you will be responsible for the end-to-end physical fabrication, installation, and integration of the aircraft's electrical systems. You will :

• Build Flight-Ready Harnesses : Perform all hands-on electrical work, including high-reliability soldering, mil-spec crimping, splicing, shield termination (e.g., solder sleeves), and full connector assembly (including pin insertion / extraction and backshell installation).
• Install and Integrate Components : Lead the physical installation, rack mounting, and securing of avionics components (LRUs, FCCs, sensors, antennas, and cockpit displays) on our integration labs (SIL / HIL) and the aircraft itself.
• Fabricate & Route Harnesses : Manage the looming, routing, and securing of all wiring harnesses using lacing cord, P-clamps, and other aerospace-grade hardware to protect from chafing and vibration.
• Read and Interpret : Be the expert in translating 2D / 3D electrical documentation into physical hardware. You must be able to fluently read schematic diagrams, wiring diagrams, and harness fabrication drawings.
• Ensure Electrical Integrity : Implement and verify all electrical bonding and grounding plans for the airframe, including surface preparation and resistance checks.
• Test, Validate, and Troubleshoot : Conduct continuity checks, isolation tests (using a megohmmeter), and perform initial power-on functional tests of installed components. Be the first line of defense to find and fix wiring faults.
• Provide Design Feedback : Provide direct, hands-on feedback to engineers, including redlining wiring diagrams and drawings to reflect as-built configurations and suggest manufacturability improvements.
