About the role
About the Role
Join a hardware engineering team taking early-stage prototypes toward deployable alpha systems for initial design partners. This hands-on role focuses on building high-voltage power electronics and using AI-enabled workflows to accelerate development.
What You'll Do
Develop prototype systems into structured, testable hardware suitable for customer use.
Design 800V-class DC power conversion, switching, and distribution systems using modern semiconductors such as SiC.
Model and validate electrical, thermal, and system behavior with SPICE, PLECS, or similar tools.
Bring up, debug, and characterize hardware in the lab using high-power equipment.
Use AI tools, including agents and language models, to speed up design, testing, and iteration.
Coordinate PCB fabrication, component sourcing, and packaging with external partners.
Balance performance, thermal management, reliability, and manufacturability in system-level design decisions.
What We're Looking For
At least 2 years of experience designing, prototyping, and testing power electronics systems; relevant experience may range up to 10 or more years.
Experience taking hardware from prototype through simulation, bring-up, validation, and iteration.
Hands-on experience with gate-driver design for fast-switching architectures.
Familiarity with SPICE, PLECS, circuit design, high-voltage DC systems, and SiC or GaN devices.
A degree in Electrical Engineering or demonstrated aptitude in power electronics.
Strong intuition for electrical systems and the ability to reason across electrical, thermal, and mechanical tradeoffs.
Experience integrating AI tools into engineering workflows.
Experience in EVs, EV charging, solar, battery storage, or other high-voltage, high-power switching applications is useful.
Must be authorized to work in the United States without visa sponsorship.
Compensation & Benefits
Base salary range: $110,000 to $250,000 annually. Visa sponsorship is not available.
Location
On-site in Detroit, Michigan. Candidates must be located in or willing to relocate to Detroit.
