  • Design and validate precision analog and power circuitry for high-voltage electricity metering applications (up to 240 V).
  • Develop AC-to-DC power supplies, surge protection circuitry, measurement systems, and communications interfaces.
  • Build and debug prototypes; perform detailed characterization using lab and environmental test equipment.
  • Optimize designs for low noise, low RF emissions, manufacturability, and cost efficiency.
  • Perform root-cause analysis and support regulatory compliance, manufacturing test, and calibration strategies.
  • Partner with firmware, systems, mechanical, compliance, and manufacturing teams throughout the product lifecycle.
  • Participate in design reviews and help mentor junior engineers, fostering strong engineering practices and an inclusive team environment.

Requirements

  • 0-2+ years of experience in analog and power electronics design.
  • Bachelor’s Degree in Electrical Engineering or a closely related field.
  • Solid understanding of analog component behavior.
  • Hands-on experience using common electronics lab equipment.
  • Ability to work independently while collaborating effectively on cross-functional teams.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to clearly document designs and technical results.

Preferred Skills & Experience

  • Experience designing AC-to-DC power supplies and other high-reliability power circuits.
  • Familiarity with surge protection and over-voltage protection strategies.
  • Background working in technology or product-driven environments with a customer-centric mindset.
  • Interest in knowledge-sharing, mentoring, and contributing to inclusive engineering teams.

Benefits

  • Competitive benefit package including financial, social, health and wellbeing programs, paid vacation, 401k matching, employee stock purchase program, hybrid work schedule, and more!

Location

West Union, SC (Hybrid)

Why This Role Is Exciting

Hands-on design ownership for precision analog and power electronics
Impactful products used globally in utility and energy infrastructure
Exposure to the full product lifecycle—from early prototypes to production launch
A collaborative engineering culture that values mentorship, inclusion, and technical rigor
