Ready to Power a Smarter World with us?

Generac Home is hiring for a Senior Electronics Design Engineer. In this role as part of the Home Interconnects & Interconnect Controls teamyou will be responsible forinterconnecting sources and loads across Generac's product portfolio. We owncontrolsand hardware that tie generators, energy storage, transfer switches, load-management devices, and metering together into a coordinated home energy system.

As a Senior Electronics Design Engineer, you will own and drive the board architecture for ourinterconnectproducts-from power-conversion, metering, and control architecture through verification and production. This is an ownership role, not a pure execution one: you will set technical direction, make the architecture and component-selection decisions, and partner closely with firmware, mechanical, manufacturing, and test engineering to bring robust, cost-effective products to market.

Essential Duties and Responsibilities:

• Own and design and validate analog, digital, and mixed-signal circuits for power conversion, power management, embedded control, communications, sensor interfaces, and precision AC voltage, current, and power measurement, including revenue-grade metering and calibration.

• Perform schematic capture,componentselection, simulation, PCB design reviews, and hardware debugging.

• Apply functional safety and safety-critical design principles throughout, including DFMEA and compliance with standards such as UL 991.

• Drive Design for Excellence (DFx)-Manufacturability, test, reliability, and cost.

• Support manufacturing and production at scale-resolving production issues and root-causing hardware failures across development, validation, manufacturing, and the field.

• Work with suppliers to evaluate components and resolve technical issues.

• Collaborate with firmware, mechanical, manufacturing, quality, and test engineering to deliver robust, cost-effective products.

• Mentor engineers and provide technical leadership through design reviews, design standards, and architecture decisions.

Minimum Qualifications:

• Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, orrelateddiscipline.

• 5+ years of experience in mixed-signal electronic hardware design&product development.

• Experience designing products through full product development cycles and into production.

• Hands-on experience with power-conversion design (AC-DC and/or DC-DC) and microcontroller-based embedded control systems.

• Demonstrated experience owning and driving board-level architecture-defining partitioning, interfaces, and design tradeoffs-not solely executing schematic and layout to a given spec.

• Knowledge of AC voltage, current, and power measurement, including revenue-grade metering and the associated accuracy and calibration considerations.

• Experience with schematic capture and PCB layout review

• Experience debugging complex electronic systems using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and other laboratory equipment.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Master's or PhD degree in Electrical Engineering or related discipline.

• 7+ years of experience developing electronic products for high volume manufacturing.

• Experience with a range of communication protocols (CAN, UART, SPI, IC, Ethernet, USB) and related hardware.

• Experience with hardware validation, reliability testing, and regulatory compliance.

• Familiarity with simulation tools for analog, power, and signal integrity analysis.

• Experience with Design for Manufacturability (DFM), Design for Test (DFT), Design for Reliability (DFR), and Design for Cost (DFC).

• Familiarity with automated test development and fault injection techniques.

• Strong analytical and troubleshooting skills with the ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously.

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills and the ability to work effectively on cross functional teams.

• Experience with renewable energy, battery systems, power electronics, or RF design is strongly preferred, given the residential energy focus of our products.

This position includes a comprehensive benefit package that includes medical, dental and vision plans; life, long-term disability, flexible, spending and health savings accounts, accrued paid time off, eight paid holidays, 2 floating holidays and 401(k) retirement benefits.
