2. System Programming & Calibration: Configure, calibrate, and program electronic control units (ECUs), displays, and safety systems following component replacements or software updates.
3. Schematic Interpretation: Read, analyze, and accurately interpret complex electrical wiring diagrams, circuit schematics, and technical network architecture maps.
4. Hydraulic Integration: Diagnose and repair electrical faults directly impacting hydraulic control systems, including electronic proportional valves, solenoids, pressure sensors, and joysticks.
5. Harness & Component Repair: Rebuild, repair, or replace damaged wiring harnesses, connectors, fuse panels, alternators, starter motors, and electronic sensors to OEM standards.
6. Documentation & Reporting: Maintain accurate records of all electrical modifications, software versions, and diagnostic logs using the company’s asset management

Skills and Competencies:
1. Technical Expertise: Deep knowledge of DC electrical systems (12V/24V), CAN-bus networks (J1939), multiplexing, and electronic control topologies.
2. Hydraulic Proficiency: Strong fundamental understanding of fluid power principles, electro-hydraulic valves, and how electrical signals drive hydraulic functions.
3. Analytical Thinking: Exceptional problem-solving skills with the ability to trace multi-system faults across complex mechanical, hydraulic, and electronic interfaces.
4. Precision Tools: Proficient in using specialized diagnostic laptops, electronic scanners, communication adapters, and precision testing equipment.
5. Safety & Compliance: Thorough understanding of electrical safety protocols, lockout/tagout procedures, battery handling safety, and electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection.

## Requirements

- Education: Diploma or certification in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, Automotive Electrics, or a related technical field.
- Experience: Minimum of five years of hands-on experience as an auto-electrician working specifically with heavy construction equipment (e.g., excavators, wheel loaders, articulated haulers).
