ABOUT THE ROLE

If you want more than routine auto-electrical work, this is the role for you. You’ll work across a diverse range of custom vehicle builds such as heavy trucks, trailers, and light vehicles, fitting and commissioning complex electrical systems from wiring and lighting through to hydraulics, telematics, GPS, and CANBUS. Based in Hazelmere alongside an experienced fabrication and production team, you’ll be the go-to for everything electrical on vehicles that go out and work hard across WA. No two builds are the same, and your expertise shapes every one of them.

WHY THIS ROLE EXISTS

As TL Engineering’s custom vehicle builds become increasingly sophisticated, expert electrical integration has become central to what we deliver. This role exists to ensure every vehicle that leaves our workshop is wired, commissioned, and performing exactly to specification. From developing schematics and installing complex control systems, to diagnosing faults and supporting pre-delivery sign-off, you’ll work across the full electrical lifecycle of each custom build. It’s one of the most technically varied automotive electrical roles available in Perth – and you’ll have the backing of a team that values the skills required to do it properly.

WHAT YOU'LL OWN

- Install, wire, and commission electrical systems across heavy vehicles, trailers, and light vehicles
- Develop wiring systems and schematics to meet build specifications and customer requirements
- Install lighting systems, warning and beacon lights, reverse cameras, GPS, telematics, and battery and communication equipment
- Fit electrical systems associated with hydraulic equipment,



cranes, hoists, and tipping systems
- Diagnose and repair electrical faults using diagnostic equipment
- Modify existing electrical systems to meet specific customer requirements
- Conduct thorough testing, commissioning, and pre-delivery inspections on each build
- Perform preventative maintenance and maintain accurate documentation and job records
- Work collaboratively with fabrication, engineering, and production teams throughout each build

WHAT YOU BRING

- Certificate III in Automotive Electrical Technology or an equivalent trade qualification
- Hands-on experience working on heavy vehicles – light vehicle experience is also valued
- Confident reading and interpreting electrical schematics and technical drawings
- Proficiency using electrical diagnostic equipment for fault identification
- Working knowledge of CANBUS and vehicle electronic control systems
- Solid fault-finding and problem-solving ability – you work through it, not around it
- High attention to detail with a personal commitment to safety and quality outcomes
- Ability to work independently and as part of a collaborative production team

WHAT TL ENGINEERING OFFERS

established business with 55+ years of continuous operation and a strong forward order book

- A practical, experienced team who take real pride in what they build
- Competitive remuneration package commensurate with your experience
- On-site role at our Hazelmere facility
