Full Job Description
The Role
We are seeking an AI-native electrical engineer who enjoys designing real hardware, modeling complex electrical systems, and turning concepts into validated prototypes. You will work across simulation, circuit design, gate-driver development, protection and sensing, and high-power lab testing. This role also involves collaboration with embedded controls, thermal/mechanical engineering, and system-level modeling.
AI driven development has enabled much faster prototyping cycles. The team is focused on leveraging modern tooling to move as quickly as possible. This includes managing agents, training models and taking AI to places it has not historically been.
What You'll Do
Design and prototype power conversion, switching, and distribution circuits for DC systems, including 800-V-class architectures
Develop gate driver circuits for fast-switching, modern semiconductor devices
Perform modeling and simulation across electrical, thermal, and system domains (SPICE and similar tools)
Implement protection and sensing circuitry for current, voltage, temperature, and fault conditions
Conduct iterative hardware bring-up, characterization, and validation using high-power lab equipment
Optimize PCB and mechanical layouts for switching performance, thermal reliability, EMI/EMC, and manufacturability
Collaborate with embedded and controls engineers to integrate digital control interfaces (MCUs, DSPs, FPGAs, or similar platforms)
Design hardware that supports dynamic power routing and rapid reconfiguration under real-time control
Participate in design reviews, documentation, component selection, reliability assessments, and structured test planning
Work cross-functionally with system architecture, thermal/mechanical engineering, and compute/power infrastructure teams to ensure system-level integration
Help shape lab workflows, test procedures, and engineering practices for high-voltage development
What We're Looking For
3+ years of experience designing, prototyping, and testing power electronics systems
Extreme familiarity with the latest AI development approaches (Claude, Codex, Agents, Agent Harnesses)
Strong foundation in high-voltage or high-power converter topologies and semiconductor behavior
Hands-on experience with gate-driver design and fast-switching architectures
Proficiency with simulation tools (SPICE variants, PLECS, PSIM, or similar platforms)
Confidence working with high-power and high-voltage lab equipment
Experience debugging challenging electrical issues across switching, timing, sensing, and protection domains
Ability to drive designs from schematic layout prototype validated hardware
Comfortable working in a small, high-ownership environment with fast iteration cycles
Bonus Points
Experience with medium- or high-voltage DC systems from EV, industrial power, telecom, renewable, or data center environments
Exposure to embedded or digital control architectures and real-time control systems
Familiarity with high-current interconnects, bus bars, thermal/mechanical integration, insulation coordination, and creepage/clearance design
Background in reliability engineering, derating analysis, safety reviews, or power-system compliance standards
Experience with lab setup, equipment selection, or building new testing workflows
Prior startup, R26D, or zero-to-one hardware development experience
Compensation
The base pay range for this role is $110,000 - $250,000 per year.
