Firmware Engineer - Power Electronics

The role This role is for a venture-backed hardware startup in San Francisco building high-performance power conversion systems. A new product is coming to market, and this hire owns the software side of it, from the control loops running on the microcontroller through the test infrastructure that proves the hardware works. This is firmware that lives close to the metal. You'll write Rust for parts with tight memory and timing budgets, work against real switching hardware, and debug with a scope as often as a debugger. The bar is high. The ideal person takes ownership and executes, and when they hit a wall they go find the way through it. What you'll do Write Rust firmware for resource-constrained microcontrollers Design and validate high-frequency power electronics control loops Design and bring up the software integration for the hardware test suites Work on test fixtures for the manufacturing line Must-haves Experience in Rust programming Understanding of firmware fundamentals Ability to learn quickly Resilience Pay: $123,579.05 - $170,826.39 per year Benefits: Stock options Work Location: In person
