Senior Electrical Engineer – Secure Systems (EV Hardware)

Power Electronics Engineer Electrical Engineer 5-10 Years Exp
Job Location: Alameda, CA

Location: Alameda, California
Type: Full-time, On-site
Compensation: USD 160K–200K + benefits

Build What Actually Ships

We’re designing a new generation of affordable, connected, and secure electric motorcycles products that don’t just prototype well, but scale in the real world.

This is a place for engineers who want to build production-grade hardware, not just slides or simulations. You’ll work in a fast, technical environment with founders and engineers who’ve delivered real EVs from concept through manufacturing backed by long-term stability and a clear path to scale.

If you like getting things done and owning results end-to-end, you’ll fit right in.

What You’ll Own

You’ll design the brains and security backbone of our electric motorcycle platform, control electronics that keep systems reliable, connected, and tamper-proof.

This is a hands-on role, spanning schematic design, PCB layout, bring-up, validation, and production integration. You’ll collaborate closely with firmware, mechanical, and manufacturing teams to make hardware that works and keeps working in the wild.

Your Core Challenges

  • Architect and design mixed-signal embedded boards with secure microcontrollers, BLE/GPS/LTE modules, and power regulation.

  • Implement tamper-resistant and production-ready designs that thrive in tough environments.

  • Conduct board bring-up, debugging, and validation using oscilloscopes and logic analyzers.

  • Collaborate with firmware engineers to refine interfaces and testing.

  • Drive compliance and certification (EMC, safety, reliability).

What You Bring

  • 5+ years in electronic circuit and PCB design for embedded systems.

  • Mastery of schematic and PCB tools (Altium, KiCad, etc.).

  • Experience integrating wireless communication modules (BLE, GPS, LTE).

  • Strong understanding of DFM/DFT, power management, and mixed-signal design.

  • Skilled in hardware debugging and system validation.

  • US work authorization (no visa sponsorship).

Bonus Points:

  • Firmware experience (C/C++).

  • Background in automotive, EV, or rugged electronics.

  • Knowledge of secure elements, TPMs, CAN/LIN, or functional safety.

  • Experience in startup or early-stage hardware environments.

  • Passion for motorcycles, EVs, or building things that move.

Why Join

  • $160K–200K base + medical, dental, vision, and 401(k) match.

  • 20 days PTO + 11 paid holidays.

  • Work on real hardware, with full ownership and visible results.

  • Small, capable team solving meaningful technical problems.

  • See your designs ship, scale, and make a tangible impact on modern mobility.

Senior Electrical Engineer

Electrical Engineer 5-10 Years Exp
Job Location: Melbourne, Victoria

Are you the kind of engineer who thrives when tackling complex power challenges - and loves seeing your designs come to life across real communities?

Join a high-performing team where your technical expertise and initiative are not just valued - they shape how power is delivered across Victoria’s growing suburbs. You’ll take the lead on major projects within the Powercor network, ensuring designs are practical, compliant, and future-ready.

Here, you’ll work on projects that make a visible difference, surrounded by a supportive team that gives you both freedom and backing to do meaningful, technically challenging work.

About the Role

As a Senior Electrical Engineer, you’ll be responsible for designing, developing, and delivering high-quality electrical systems - from concept through to completion. Your proven experience with VEDN and VESI design standards, particularly within the Powercor network, will be essential as you help drive key projects forward and mentor junior engineers.

If you’re looking for a role where you can make an impact from day one, this is it.

What You’ll Do

  • Lead the design of electrical systems including power distribution, lighting, and controls

  • Deliver compliant, high-quality designs that meet Victorian standards and project specifications

  • Apply your hands-on VEDN and VESI design experience (Powercor network preferred, others also valued)

  • Oversee multiple projects, ensuring timely delivery and technical excellence

  • Provide mentoring, guidance, and technical leadership to junior engineers

  • Conduct electrical calculations and ensure system efficiency and safety

  • Liaise with clients, contractors, and internal teams to maintain project alignment

  • Select appropriate components and materials to meet performance and budget goals

  • Participate in interdisciplinary design meetings and reviews

  • Research emerging technologies and contribute to continuous improvement initiatives

  • Build and maintain strong client and stakeholder relationships

What You’ll Need

  • Minimum 5+ years of experience in Victorian URD and power distribution design

  • Proven VEDN and VESI design experience (Powercor network preferred)

  • Degree in Electrical Engineering or related discipline

  • Solid understanding of UG/OH electrical design and compliance requirements

  • Proficiency with AutoCAD, Revit, or similar CAD tools

  • Experience with SOC/PCN and Victorian electrical standards (desirable)

  • Strong stakeholder management and communication skills

  • Proficiency in MS Office and project tools (e.g., Wrike)

  • Current Victorian driver’s licence

Why Join?

  • Work on projects that shape Victoria’s power infrastructure

  • Join a high-performing team where your input is genuinely valued

  • Take ownership of your work - and see its real-world results

  • Continuous professional development and growth opportunities

If you’re ready to bring your expertise and engineering leadership to a team that values initiative and results - we’d love to hear from you.

Design Engineer – Solar And BESS

Electrical Engineer
Job Location: Melbourne, Victoria

What if your next project was also your launchpad into leadership?

You’ve probably heard promises like this before… and you’re still waiting.

The difference? This role is designed from day one with a clear pathway into leadership - not just a possibility, but a plan.

This is a career-defining opportunity. You will be the first renewable design engineer in the business, building a new function from the ground up. As projects scale, this role is intended to progress into a Team Leader position, heading up the Renewables Division and shaping the company’s future in clean energy.

Location: Melbourne, Victoria

This role gives you the chance to:

• Deliver projects that directly contribute to Australia’s renewable energy future.
• Be the first hire in a growing renewables function, with influence over how it’s built.
• Gain experience across the full lifecycle - from feasibility to commissioning.
• Develop your leadership skills and position yourself as a future Team Leader in the Renewables Division.

What You’ll Do

• Conduct site assessments, develop layouts, perform solar yield modelling (PVsyst), and size solar arrays, inverters, and BESS.
• Prepare grid connection applications (AEMO/DNSP), carry out grid studies (load flow, short circuit, fault level, harmonic, PSCAD), and ensure compliance with AS/NZS standards, DNSP rules, and safety requirements.
• Deliver concept, detailed, and IFC designs including SLDs, protection schemes, SCADA integration, inverter and MSB configurations, and civil interface coordination.
• Provide technical input during procurement and construction, resolve RFIs, support commissioning/testing, and produce O&M documentation.
• Establish design templates and QA processes, contribute technical expertise to proposals, and help mentor future engineers as the renewables team grows.

What You Bring

• Degree in Electrical Engineering (mandatory).
• Chartered Professional Engineer (CPEng) / NER / RPEQ preferred, or working towards. 3–5+ years of direct renewable design experience (solar farms, BESS, hybrid systems), ideally on the VEDN Network.
• Proven delivery of utility-scale projects (≥5 MW).
• Proficiency in PVsyst, DIgSILENT PowerFactory, ETAP, PSCAD, and AutoCAD.
• Strong knowledge of Australian Standards and DNSP requirements.
