The Opportunity: Build the Readiness Engine Behind Ford’s Next Electrical Platform

We are forming a new capability to integrate Ford’s FNV3.X next-generation electrical architecture into test platforms—starting with electrical breadboards and test benches that represent the full vehicle electrical ecosystem (ECUs, harnesses, switches, lamps, and high-voltage content).
This role is not about hands-on assembly. It’s about building the system that makes assembly—and testing—possible. You will operate at the intersection of engineering intent and lab execution, removing friction so the VISE teams can build, power on, and iterate faster. There isn’t a fully defined playbook yet, which is exactly why this role matters: you will help create it.
 

We are looking for a hardware readiness owner who can lead part ordering and BOM validation end-to-end for platform breadboards and benches. You will drive alignment across D&R, feature/software engineering, and VISE lab build teams to ensure the right hardware shows up, matches the intended BOM, and is truly test-ready on release timing.

This is a high-ownership role for someone who is proactive, structured, and comfortable operating in a fast-changing scope environment.

We made history and now we work to transform the future – for our customers, our communities and our families. You'll see your work on the road every day, helping people move freely and pursue their dreams. At Ford, you can build more than vehicles. Come build what matters. Product Development uses design thinking & user experience methods to deliver breakthrough products and services that delight our customers. We bring innovative, exciting, and sustainable ideas to life. We have opportunities around the world for you to contribute to advancements in autonomy, electrification, smart mobility technologies, and more!
