Wiring harness build board with routed looms and connectors — Integrity Staffing Group
Integrity Staffing Group recruits Wiring Harness Engineers for automotive OEMs, Tier 1 suppliers, and machine builders across Metro Detroit.
A harness release that slips holds up every prototype build queued behind it, and a routing or connector error found at the build becomes rework on hardware someone already paid for. We screen harness candidates on the authoring tool your program runs, the packaging constraints they have worked inside, and the standards your customer audits against.

What a Wiring Harness Engineer does on your program

Wiring Harness Engineers design the electrical architecture that physically ties a vehicle or a machine together: schematics, connector and terminal selection, routing and packaging through the build, and the harness BOM your supplier quotes and builds to.
Typical responsibilities we hire for
  • ›Harness schematics and wiring diagrams
  • ›Connector, terminal, and splice selection
  • ›Routing, bundling, and electrical packaging
  • ›Harness BOM management and ECN/ECR
  • ›Prototype builds and continuity validation

Automotive Staffing — FAQ

Harness design is a narrower bench than plant-floor engineering, so we scope a realistic timeline with you at intake rather than quote a number before we understand the seat.

How long does it take to place a Wiring Harness Engineer in Metro Detroit?
Harness design is a narrower bench than plant-floor engineering, so we scope a realistic timeline with you at intake rather than quote a number before we understand the seat.
Which harness design tools do you screen for?
Siemens Capital and Capital HarnessXC, Zuken E3.series, CATIA Electrical, Creo Cabling, NX Routing, and AutoCAD Electrical. We verify the tool rather than take it off the resume.
Do candidates know IPC/WHMA-A-620 and USCAR standards?
We screen for both where the role calls for them, along with SAE requirements and the APQP, PPAP, DFMEA, and DVP&R paperwork your customer expects with the release.
Contract or direct hire for a harness engineer?
Both, plus employee hosting. Contract fits one program's release schedule; direct hire fits ongoing ownership of the electrical architecture.
