Electronics Design Engineer

The role

You will design power electronics including inverters, battery management systems, and microgrid interconnect devices. You will own boards from schematic to production and validate them at high voltage and high current.

What you will do

• Own board designs end to end including specs, architecture, schematic capture, PCB layout, bring-up, and validation.
• Design and run high-voltage, high-current validation on inverter, battery, and BMS hardware.
• Debug complex interactions at the board and system level.
• Drive reliability and functional testing with the test and reliability teams.
• Take designs through DFM and into high-volume production with manufacturing.

Required qualifications

• Degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Physics, or a related field, or equivalent experience.
• 1+ years of hands-on hardware design experience.
• Analog and digital circuit design, including high-voltage or power supply design.
• PCB design in Altium and hands-on bring-up: probing, soldering, wiring, and debugging.
• Comfort with oscilloscopes, power supplies, function generators, and electronic loads.
• Python or similar scripting for test and data analysis.

Nice to have

• Power semiconductors (Si and SiC MOSFETs, IGBTs), gate drivers, and magnetics.
• Embedded firmware and microcontroller peripherals.
• CAN, LIN, or Ethernet networking.
• Basic control theory: sensor bandwidth, filtering, and loop stability.
• Electric motors, thermal design, or mechanical integration.
• Leadership on a Formula SAE, solar car, or similar hands-on engineering team.
