Overnight Embedded Systems Engineer information

What is an overnight embedded systems engineer?

Overnight Embedded Systems Engineers are professionals who specialize in designing, developing, and troubleshooting embedded systems during overnight or late-night shifts. These engineers work on hardware and software components that are integrated into devices such as industrial machines, medical equipment, or consumer electronics. Overnight shifts are often necessary in industries that require 24/7 support for critical systems or to ensure that projects with tight deadlines stay on track. Their responsibilities may include debugging, firmware updates, system testing, and responding to urgent technical issues that arise outside of standard business hours.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an overnight embedded systems engineer?

To thrive as an Overnight Embedded Systems Engineer, you need a solid background in embedded systems design, programming (C/C++), and hardware-software integration, often backed by a degree in electrical engineering or computer science. Familiarity with tools like oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, real-time operating systems (RTOS), and version control systems such as Git is typically required. Strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and effective communication are essential soft skills, especially when working independently or during off-hours. These abilities ensure the engineer can efficiently identify and resolve issues, maintain system reliability, and support continuous operations during overnight shifts.

What are some unique challenges faced by overnight embedded systems engineers, and how can they be managed effectively?

Overnight Embedded Systems Engineers often encounter challenges such as limited real-time support from colleagues or external vendors, as most teams operate during standard business hours. This requires strong problem-solving skills and the ability to work independently when troubleshooting system issues or deploying updates. Effective documentation, clear communication with the day team through shift handovers, and leveraging remote collaboration tools can help ensure continuity and minimize disruptions. Additionally, maintaining a healthy work-life balance is important, as overnight shifts can impact sleep patterns and overall well-being.

Job description

Magna-Power Electronics (MPE), a Flemington, New Jersey based electronics manufacturer, we believe that world-class engineering starts with a great team. We’re incredibly proud of the culture we’ve built, one that truly supports our people and has earned us award-winning workplace recognitions.

Now, as we continue to grow, we’re looking for a Embedded Systems Engineer to join our family. At MPE your expertise won't just sit on a shelf; it will power the future. You’ll be diving into exciting, globally impactful projects, shaping everything from electric vehicle powertrains and next-generation semiconductor fabrication to particle accelerators, cutting-edge energy research, and national defense. If you're looking for a place where your work matters and your team has your back, you've found it.

Role Summary

As a Power Electronics Embedded Systems Engineer within Magna-Power’s R&D team, you will design and integrate sophisticated control architectures for multi-kilowatt programmable DC power supplies. You will be responsible for the full development lifecycle—from modeling advanced control algorithms to implementing ultra-reliable firmware and validating high-voltage hardware—directly impacting the performance and reliability of our next-generation power solutions.

Key Responsibilities
  • Develop and tune high-bandwidth closed-loop control models (PI/PID, state-space) in MATLAB/Simulink for real-time power conversion.
  • Architect and implement deterministic bare-metal C firmware for TI C2000 MCUs, including low-level drivers (PWM, ADC, CAN, Ethernet).
  • Design mixed-signal and high-voltage 2- to 4-layer PCBs using Altium Designer, prioritizing signal integrity and DFM.
  • Perform hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) validation and lab debugging using oscilloscopes, power analyzers, and differential probes.
  • Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to ensure regulatory compliance (UL/IEC/CE) and support volume production sustainment.
Requirements
  • Education: BS in Electrical Engineering, Power Electronics, or related field (MS preferred).
  • Experience: 5+ years in power electronics engineering with a focus on switching converter design.
  • Control & Modeling: Proficient in MATLAB/Simulink for control loop modeling and auto-code generation.
  • Embedded Systems: Expert in bare-metal C programming for TI C2000 or equivalent 32-bit real-time MCUs.
  • Hardware Design: Hands-on experience with Altium, PCB bring-up, and laboratory communication protocols (SCPI, Python).
Perks & Benefits

In addition to your competitive compensation, Magna-Power provides a comprehensive total rewards package designed to help you thrive:

  • Health & Wellness: Medical, Dental, and Vision coverage.
  • Financial Future: 401(k) plan with a competitive company match, plus Life/Supplemental insurance, Critical Illness & Accident plans, and FSA options.
  • Work-Life Balance: Generous accrued paid time off to unplug and recharge, and a steady work schedule (Monday-Friday Only).
  • Continuous Learning: Tuition reimbursement programs, certifications, conferences and additional learning opportunities to fuel your ongoing professional development and technical mastery.
  • Relocation Package: Reimbursement Stipend for relocation costs provided for eligible new hires (US Domestic Only).
An Inclusive Place to Build Your Career

We don't just build world-class products; we build exceptional careers. If you are driven to learn and innovate, you will find unlimited growth potential here.

Innovation demands diverse perspectives and minds. Magna-Power Electronics is a proud equal opportunity employer committed to an inclusive, welcoming workplace. We proudly consider all qualified candidates regardless of race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, or protected veteran status. Should you require accommodations due to a disability at any time during the hiring and/or assessment process, we will make all reasonable efforts to accommodate your request.
