Job description

About the role
As a senior embedded systems engineer, you will bring automotive-grade embedded engineering discipline to a greenfield product environment, owning firmware from architecture through production deployment across condition monitoring systems, power electronics, and grid-edge devices. Our integrated model of combining advanced engineering, tight supply-chain control, and exceptional service empowers you to build resilient solutions that restore reliability and control to the operators who keep the world energized.
What you'll do
  • Design and develop production-grade firmware for asset condition monitoring systems and high-power electronics platforms.
  • Own schematic review and hardware bring-up i.e. bridging hardware and software from early prototype through field deployment
  • Drive end-to-end product development cycles including requirements, architecture, implementation, validation, and deployment
  • Implement and maintain CAN, LIN, Modbus, IEC61850 etc communication stacks as required by system architecture
  • Apply automotive embedded architecture principles (ISO 26262, AUTOSAR) to power electronics and monitoring applications
  • Develop FPGA-based control and signal processing pipelines; write low-level peripheral drivers and RTOS application layers
  • Collaborate with hardware, power electronics, and product teams on system requirements and interface definitions
  • Participate in design reviews, FMEA, and qualification testing across product lines

Qualifications
  • First Principles Thinking
  • 4+ years of embedded systems engineering experience with at least one complete end-to-end product development cycle
  • Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field
  • Strong proficiency in C/C++; experience with bare-metal, RTOS-based (FreeRTOS, Zephyr), and embedded Linux environments
  • Hands-on automotive embedded experience: ISO 26262 functional safety, AUTOSAR architecture, or ECU development
  • Experience with automotive/industrial communication protocols: CAN, LIN, SPI, I2C, UART, Modbus, IEC61850
  • Proficiency with debugging tools: JTAG, oscilloscopes, logic analysers, and hardware bring-up workflows
  • Experience with version control (Git), build systems (Make/CMake), and Agile development practices
  • Strong debugging and problem-solving skills across hardware-software interactions
  • Excellent written and verbal communications in English

What we offer
  • Collaborative work environment
  • Challenging problems to solve
  • Competitive benefits including medical, dental, and vision
  • Equity package
