Manager, Electrical Systems and Modeling
Archer is seeking an experienced engineering leader to manage the Electrical Systems and Modeling team responsible for the architecture, requirements, modeling, and simulation of electrical power systems for Archer's next-generation eVTOL aircraft. You will lead a team of engineers ensuring system safety, efficiency, and regulatory compliance across HV/LV power systems, electric propulsion integration, and power electronics.
Key responsibilities include defining and architecting the HV/LV power system accounting for safety, redundancy, isolation, and grounding. You will develop requirements for electrical subsystems, including inverters and rectifiers integrated within electric engines, generators, actuators, and auxiliary power systems. Leading power system modeling and analysis, managing technical engagement with suppliers, and driving cross-functional collaboration to ensure cohesive system integration are also essential aspects of the role.
The ideal candidate will possess a Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Power Systems Engineering, or a related discipline, with over 8 years of experience in electrical system design for EV, aerospace, or similar high-reliability applications. A minimum of 3 years of demonstrated people management experience is required. Strong background in systems engineering practices, experience with requirements management tools such as Polarion or DOORS, and proficiency with electrical system modeling tools like MATLAB/Simulink, PLECS, or LTspice are essential. Proven ability to lead teams through ambiguity and competing priorities, along with strong technical communication and stakeholder management skills, are also necessary.
At Archer, we aim to attract, retain, and motivate talent with the skills and leadership needed to grow our business. We drive a pay-for-performance culture and reward performance that supports the Company's strategy. For this position, we are targeting a base pay range of $172,800 - $227,600. Actual compensation offered will be determined by job-related knowledge, skills, and experience.
