About the role
- We are looking for a Digital Power Electronics Firmware Engineer to develop embedded firmware for the advanced power conversion systems at the heart of our autonomous defense platforms.
- You will work at the intersection of firmware and power electronics, developing control systems for DC-DC converters, power distribution, and energy management that enable efficient, reliable operation in demanding field environments.
Responsibilities
- Design and implement embedded firmware in C/C++ for digital control of power electronics systems, including DC-DC converters, voltage regulation, and power distribution.
- Use simulation tools such as SPICE and MATLAB/Simulink to model, validate, and optimize control systems prior to hardware implementation.
- Partner with electrical engineers to bring up and validate power electronics hardware
- perform lab debugging and validation under various load conditions.
- Backed by our founders' successful exits from two previous ventures acquired for a combined $180M in 2022, we are committed to ensuring that the groundbreaking technologies we develop will have a real-world impact.
Requirements
- 3+ years of experience in embedded firmware development with power electronics systems.
- Experience with digital control of DC-DC converters, inverters, or power management systems
- strong understanding of analog and digital power systems.
- Proficiency in C/C++ for embedded systems and experience with microcontrollers such as STM32, TI C2000, or similar.
- Familiarity with implementing control algorithms such as PID loops (including anti-windup), as well as PWM and phase-shift control for power topologies.
- Familiarity with simulation tools including SPICE, MATLAB, and Simulink.
- Experience with digital power control loops and compensation techniques.
- Experience with battery systems or energy management systems.
- Experience implementing advanced digital control techniques, including PID tuning, anti-windup strategies, and PWM/phase-shift modulation for power systems.
