Responsibilities

• Own the full power electronics design lifecycle: topology, schematic, PCB, prototype, production, and field support — cradle to grave ownership, not handoffs
• Design and develop high‑power inverter and battery‑integrated systems up to 480VDC / 400ADC; multi‑kilowatt scale (systems up to 60kW)
• Lead hands‑on bench work including bring‑up, debugging, EMI mitigation, thermal management, and performance validation
• Design and specify AC/DC power supplies and conversion stages; working knowledge of both AC line‑side and DC bus‑side design is required
• Develop embedded control solutions using Microchip PIC/dsPIC, including firmware development and debugging
• Apply mechanical engineering sensibility to enclosure layout, thermal path design, and component integration
• Create test procedures, ensure compliance (NEC/UL/CSA), and support manufacturing, DFM, and field performance investigations

Requirements

• Experience in UPS manufacturing, DC power supply design, or industrial inverter/charger development is ideal
• Solar power electronics experience may be relevant depending on depth of power conversion involvement
• The ideal candidate is a self-directed tinkerer who takes things apart to understand them, builds prototypes with their own hands, and persists until the hardware works
• Design and specify AC/DC power supplies and conversion stages; working knowledge of both AC line‑side and DC bus‑side design is required
