About Airloom EnergyAirloom Energy is building the next era of resilient, utility-scale power. Our patented wind generation system replaces massive traditional turbines with a low-profile, roller-coaster-style track that uses small, adjustable wings to capture wind energy more efficiently, at lower cost, and in a fraction of the time. By dramatically reducing parts, mass, and construction timelines, Airloom is unlocking faster, more scalable clean energy deployment-designed to respect the land, the views, and the communities we serve. With headquarters in Laramie, Wyoming and a pilot system underway near Rock River, we're assembling a team to help bring this breakthrough technology to global scale.Position/Company Value Proposition:You will use your expertise in embedded principles and experience designing complex systems for aerospace and industrial applications to be a leader in the design of a utility-scale plant to demonstrate the scalability and cost effectiveness of Airloom's novel approach to wind energy generation.Position Key Skills:System Development: Design and develop electrical control systems for novel, lightweight wind turbine technologySoftware/Firmware Development: Develop and maintain C/C++ applications for real-time control, monitoring, and data acquisition, focusing on embedded systemsModeling & Simulation: Perform simulation and modeling of control algorithmsHardware Integration: Collaborate with mechanical and electrical teams to integrate sensors, actuators, and power electronicsTesting and Validation: Develop test plans, conduct engineering tests on prototypes, and analyze data to validate performance Position Qualifications:Bachelor's or Master's degree5+ years of related experienceDemonstrated capability with C/C++ programming for embedded and real-time systemsExperience: Experience with motor controllers, generator controls, and power electronics is highly relevant.Familiarity with Simulation Toolslike MATLAB/Simulink or similar modeling software.Demonstrated vehicle-level and systems-level knowledge to confidently execute to plan but also fill in the gaps or solve complex issues in real time.
