Staff Electronics Hardware Engineer

Quick Facts

• Role: Staff Electronics Hardware Engineer (system-level embedded hardware)

Description

Join the Power Systems Innovation team to define, design, integrate, and validate next-generation system hardware solutions. In this role, you will develop, integrate, and validate system-level electronic hardware for new and existing products, with full ownership from requirements through release.

Responsibilities

• Create innovative system-level embedded hardware designs for next-generation energy products

• Lead specification, schematic capture, prototyping, and debugging of complex circuits and PCBAs

• Design digital circuits including processor/MCU support, memory, clocking, reset, and interface connectivity

• Implement and debug digital interfaces including CAN, UART, I2C, and SPI

• Interface digital subsystems with analog circuitry, including ADC and DAC integration

• Define and validate mixed-signal performance requirements such as signal conditioning, filtering, grounding, reference accuracy, noise coupling, and timing

• Perform hands-on board bring-up, hardware validation, and troubleshooting using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, protocol analyzers, and bench equipment

• Collaborate with firmware engineers on peripheral enablement and board bring-up; provide basic firmware-level debug support when needed

• Own PCB design quality with attention to signal integrity, EMI/EMC, manufacturability, and testability

• Generate design documentation and release packages (schematics, layout deliverables, BOMs, test plans, manufacturing outputs)

• Support design transfer to manufacturing and resolve hardware issues through validation and product ramp

Requirements

• BS/MS in Electrical Engineering or closely related discipline

• Senior level experience: 8+ years (BS) or 5+ years (MS) in electronics hardware/system design

• Strong digital and mixed-signal hardware design skills with commercial product development experience

• Demonstrated experience implementing and debugging CAN, UART, I2C, and SPI

• Experience interfacing analog and digital circuitry, including ADC/DAC integration

• Proven hands-on ownership of schematic capture and PCB layout

• Familiarity with embedded firmware development for hardware bring-up (register-level/peripheral configuration/debug support)

• Proficiency with ECAD tools such as Altium, OrCAD, KiCad, or Expedition/Xpedition

• Ability to troubleshoot complex system environments and drive issues to resolution

• Ability to independently own technical workstreams and deliver high-quality results on schedule

Benefits

• Base pay range: $110,000 to $151,000 (starting pay determined by skills, experience, education/training, work location, and market conditions)

• Eligible for bonus, equity, and benefits
