AI-Native Electrical Engineer

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.
