Electric Era is hiring an Electrical Engineer to join our team as we move quickly toward shipping units into the field. As a generalist, you’ll be expected to take a major part in owning everything electrical for our battery pack, and you can help shape our company culture along with our design.

Responsibilities:

• Develop, refine, and simplify system level requirements and translate them into circuits (on- or off-PCB) that integrate with our system architecture.
• Lead multi-disciplinary root-causing efforts to identify design problems and roll out effective solutions.
• Deliver cost-optimized designs for battery storage systems and EV charging stations that are manufacturable by our in-house team or by our suppliers, including architectures, system wiring diagrams, and PCB schematics and layouts.
• Contribute to documentation and testing for regulatory certification, and create or revise designs that comply with safety and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) requirements.
• Identify electronic part sources that reduce supply chain dependency and system cost.
• Specify and integrate commercial power and control components such as transformers, relays, and power supplies into purpose-built control systems.
• Create ISO 9001-compliant electronic manufacturing test systems.
• Collaborate with our site implementation team to enable efficient, compliant, and reliable charging stations.

Qualifications and Preferred Skills:

• Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering; Master’s degree is a plus.
• 2-6 years of professional experience, showing a strong portfolio of project work.
• Schematic entry and PCB layout - knowledge of Altium is a plus.
• Knowledge of bench power supplies, loads, multimeters, and oscilloscopes.
• Awareness of the principles of high-voltage safety.
• Knowledge of design for isolation and hi-pot testing.
• Thermal design for integrated circuits, power devices, and battery cells.
• A documentation mindset in schematic design and process execution.
• Passion for our mission to decarbonize the transportation industry.
• Strong verbal and written communication skills.
• Enthusiasm for taking on multiple roles and working across disciplines with a small team.
