A Bachelor's or Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics, Industrial Engineering, or a related technical field is required. Deep expertise in General Assembly processes and equipment, including robotic applications (e.g., Kuka, Fanuc), conveyance systems, nut running, fluid fill, and sealing, is essential. Proficiency in CAD software (e.g., SolidWorks, CATIA, AutoCAD) and strong project management experience are also necessary.
Harbinger offers a comprehensive benefits package, including 100% employee-covered health, dental, and vision insurance, early-stage stock options, robust retirement savings plans (401k, HSA, FSA), generous paid time off and parental leave, an annual vacation bonus, wellness and fertility benefits, a cell phone stipend, and complimentary meals.
Joining Harbinger provides an opportunity to be part of a pioneering team dedicated to transforming the commercial electric vehicle industry. The company fosters a culture of innovation and collaboration, offering significant growth opportunities as it scales production to meet the growing demand for medium-duty EVs and hybrids.
