Full Job Description
We are designing and developing a distributed battery storage system to pair with solar panels that are quick and easy to install. The system is simple, robust, reliable, and easy to manufacture at scale. The system will include highly efficient DC-DC conversion, solar MPPT, power distribution, no moving parts, and efficient cable management to make everything plug and play in the field.
We are seeking a skilled Power Electronics Test Engineer to test, debug, and validate the DC-DC, AC-DC, and bidirectional power converters used in our distributed battery storage system paired with solar generation.
The ideal candidate will work closely with power electronics design, systems, and software engineers to develop high-performance power conversion and scalable product.
Responsibilities
Design, execute, and document comprehensive verification and validation test plans for distributed battery storage systems, DC-DC converters, AC-DC stages, and solar MPPT power hardware.
Good understanding of power electronics conversion and control.
Review schematics and PCB layouts to assess testability.
Good root-cause analysis on hardware bugs, power component failures, and control anomalies during rapid prototyping and test cycles.
Utilize oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, power analyzers, electronic loads, differential probes, and programmable power supplies to safely perform high-power testing.
Able to develop functional test benches and automated verification tests for power electronics conversion systems.
Good technical writing and communication skills, with the ability to convey complex concepts clearly.
