As a Senior Electronics Design Engineer, you will own and drive the board architecture for our interconnect products - from power-conversion, metering, and control architecture through verification and production. This is an ownership role, not a pure execution one: you will set technical direction, make the architecture and component-selection decisions, and partner closely with firmware, mechanical, manufacturing, and test engineering to bring robust, cost-effective products to market.
Essential Duties and Responsibilities
Own and drive the board architecture - partitioning, interface definition, component selection, and power architecture
Design analog, digital, and mixed-signal circuits: AC-DC power supplies, DC-DC converters, power management, signal conditioning, sensor interfaces, communications, and embedded control systems.
Design and validate AC voltage, current, and power measurement circuits, including revenue-grade metering, with attention to accuracy, calibration, and applicable standards.
Design high-power relay and relay-drive circuits for load switching, including coil drive, snubbing, contact protection, and coordination with embedded control.
Perform schematic capture, component selection, simulation, PCB design reviews, and hardware debugging.
Balance design tradeoffs across performance, cost, reliability, manufacturability, and schedule.
Apply functional safety and safety-critical design principles throughout, including DFMEA and compliance with standards such as UL 991.
Drive Design for Excellence (DFx) - Manufacturability, test, reliability, and cost.
Develop and execute verification and validation plans spanning bench, environmental, and system-integration testing.
Support new product introduction (NPI) through pilot builds, design verification, and production launch.
Support manufacturing and production at scale - resolving production issues and root-causing hardware failures across development, validation, manufacturing, and the field.
Work with suppliers to evaluate components and resolve technical issues.
Collaborate with firmware, mechanical, manufacturing, quality, and test engineering to deliver robust, cost-effective products.
Mentor engineers and provide technical leadership through design reviews, design standards, and architecture decisions.
Stay current with industry design trends and provide a roadmap for applying new technologies to our products.
Improve engineering processes, design standards, and documentation.
Minimum Qualifications
Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, or related discipline.
5+ years of experience in mixed-signal electronic hardware design & product development.
Experience designing products through full product development cycles and into production.
Strong background in analog and digital circuit design.
Hands-on experience with power-conversion design (AC-DC and/or DC-DC) and microcontroller-based embedded control systems.
Demonstrated experience owning and driving board-level architecture - defining partitioning, interfaces, and design tradeoffs - not solely executing schematic and layout to a given spec.
Knowledge of AC voltage, current, and power measurement, including revenue-grade metering and the associated accuracy and calibration considerations.
Knowledge of high-power relays and relay-drive circuit design for load switching.
Knowledge of functional safety and safety-critical design, including DFMEA and safety standards such as UL 991.
Ability to work with firmware, read and understand requirements, and modify firmware to support hardware bring-up and test, with hands-on use of UART and CAN bus monitoring tools.
Experience with schematic capture and PCB layout review using Altium Designer or similar PCB and schematic capture tools.
Experience debugging complex electronic systems using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and other laboratory equipment.
Preferred Qualifications
Master's or PhD degree in Electrical Engineering or related discipline.
7+ years of experience developing electronic products for high volume manufacturing.
Experience with a range of communication protocols (CAN, UART, SPI, I²C, Ethernet, USB) and related hardware.
Experience with hardware validation, reliability testing, and regulatory compliance.
Familiarity with simulation tools for analog, power, and signal integrity analysis.
Experience with Design for Manufacturability (DFM), Design for Test (DFT), Design for Reliability (DFR), and Design for Cost (DFC).
Familiarity with automated test development and fault injection techniques.
Strong analytical and troubleshooting skills with the ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills and the ability to work effectively on cross functional teams.
Experience with renewable energy, battery systems, power electronics, or RF design is strongly preferred, given the residential energy focus of our products.
