Hands-on hardware engineer responsible for designing, validating, and industrializing power-electronics subsystems for residential and light-commercial solar energy storage products.
Key Responsibilities
• Design inverter, bidirectional DC-DC, auxiliary power, sensing, isolation, gate-drive, and protection circuits.
• Perform schematic design, calculations, simulation, component selection, derating, worst-case, SOA, loss, and thermal analysis.
• Support PCB layout for high-power, high-voltage, isolation, creepage/clearance, signal integrity, and EMC requirements.
• Own hands-on debug of critical hardware issues during board bring-up and system integration; perform structured RCA, implement corrective actions, and verify closure.
• Create design documentation and support design reviews, DFMEA, DFM/DFA/DFT, prototype builds, certification, and production launch.
• Collaborate with systems, firmware, mechanical, validation, compliance, quality, sourcing, suppliers, and manufacturing teams.

Preferred Experience
• Experience with ESS, grid-forming or grid-following inverters.




• Exposure to UL /IEC standards on grid compliance, EMC, safety, surge, and environmental & associated testing.

Success in This Role
• Robust hardware delivery against performance, efficiency, thermal, cost, reliability, and schedule targets.
• Effective bring-up, rapid closure of critical hardware issues through robust RCA, cost reduction and readiness for compliance and manufacturing.

7+ years of experience and Bachelor’s or master’s degree or Phd in Electrical/Electronics Engineering, Power Electronics, Energy Systems, or related discipline from a reputed institute (IITs, NITs, IISc, top global universities, or equivalent)...
• Experience in grid-tied inverters, battery energy storage, bidirectional converters, PFC, or similar power-conversion products.
• Solid knowledge of Si/SiC devices, gate drivers, magnetics, capacitors, sensing, protection, isolation, and thermal design.
• Hands-on use
