AI-Native Electrical Engineer

About the Role

Join an energy technology team building high-voltage power systems. You will take early-stage prototypes through design, testing, and iteration to create deployable alpha hardware for design partners.

What You'll Do

• Turn lab-scale prototypes into structured, testable hardware systems ready for customer evaluation.

• Design high-voltage DC power conversion, switching, and distribution systems, including architectures using silicon carbide devices.

• Model and validate electrical, thermal, and system-level behavior with tools such as SPICE and PLECS.

• Lead hands-on lab bring-up, debugging, and characterization using high-power equipment.

• Use AI tools, including agents and language models, to accelerate design, testing, and iteration.

• Coordinate PCB fabrication, component sourcing, and packaging with external partners.

• Make pragmatic system-level tradeoffs across performance, thermal management, reliability, and manufacturability.

What We're Looking For

• At least 2 years of experience designing, prototyping, and testing power electronics systems.

• Experience taking hardware from prototype through simulation, bring-up, validation, and iterative improvement.

• Practical experience with electrical simulation tools such as SPICE or PLECS.

• A degree in electrical engineering or demonstrated aptitude in power electronics.

• Hands-on gate-driver design experience for fast-switching architectures.

• Strong system intuition and the ability to weigh electrical, thermal, and mechanical tradeoffs.

• Experience integrating AI tools, such as agents or models, into a technical workflow.

• Knowledge of high-voltage and high-power systems, including 800V-class architectures, SiC, or GaN; experience in EVs, charging, solar, or battery storage is useful.
