We are seeking a Senior Electrical Engineer to drive electrical design and component-level cost optimization across battery, energy storage, and industrial products. This role will turn the electrical architecture into detailed component, interface, and verification requirements, carry out cost-reduction work from analysis through validation, and work closely with distributed engineering teams.
Responsibilities
• Carry out electrical design work within the defined architecture, owning assigned subsystems and component areas.
• Develop component, interface, and verification requirements from system and architecture requirements.
• Identify, evaluate, and recommend lower-cost alternatives for switches, sensors, and electrical isolation components, supported by technical and cost analysis.

• Prepare and present design work in design reviews, and take part in peer reviews.
• Work directly with mechanical, systems, manufacturing, supply-chain, and validation engineers to resolve technical issues.
• Work with nearshore engineering teams on deliverables, and help make sure documentation is ready for release.

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, Mechatronics, or a related field.
• Hands-on experience with sensors, harness interfaces, BOM optimization, and component selection. Exposure to electrical architecture development is a plus.
• Ability to work independently on complex technical problems and support or mentor junior engineers.
• Strong working knowledge of sensors, switches, heaters, pumps, DC/DC converters, power distribution, and harness interfaces.
Salary Range
• $130,000 - 160,000
