Electronics Design Engineer

Austin, TXfulltimemidAdded yesterday

About this role

Base seeks an Electronics Design Engineer to lead end-to-end development of distributed energy storage systems, from schematic design through manufacturing and field deployment. You'll own inverter, battery, and interconnect device designs while collaborating across mechanical, firmware, and test teams in a fast-paced startup environment.

What you'll do

  • Design and validate energy storage systems including inverters, batteries, and microgrid interconnect devices from specifications through production
  • Perform schematic capture, PCB layout using Altium, board bring-up, and oversee reliability and functional testing
  • Execute high voltage and high current validation testing for inverter, battery, and BMS designs
  • Debug complex component interactions and system-level failures
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams (mechanical, firmware, test, reliability) to support high-volume manufacturing
  • Evaluate and select power semiconductors and circuit topologies for performance and cost efficiency

What they're looking for

  • Digital and analog circuit design
  • High voltage and power supply design
  • PCB design (Altium) and board bring-up
  • Embedded firmware and microcontroller knowledge
  • Power semiconductor design (MOSFETs, IGBTs)
  • Lab equipment proficiency (oscilloscopes, function generators, power supplies)
  • Automotive networking (CAN, LIN, Ethernet)
  • Control theory and sensor bandwidth fundamentals
