About the Role

We are looking for a Hardware Integration Engineer to help design and integrate the next generation of Base Power’s residential battery storage, inverter, and microgrid interconnect device (MID) systems. This role requires strong electrical engineering fundamentals and hands-on experience with complex energy storage hardware. You’ll play a critical role in building safe, reliable, and scalable hardware systems that power homes and communities.

Responsibilities

Design and integrate battery management systems (BMS), inverters, and MID hardware for residential energy applications.
Develop and maintain system architecture and electrical schematics for multi-component energy systems.
Conduct testing, validation, and troubleshooting of integrated hardware systems.
Partner with software teams to ensure seamless hardware/software integration and control algorithm development.
Support regulatory compliance and product certification processes to meet industry standards.

Requirements

BS/MS in Electrical Engineering (or related field) with 3+ years of hardware development experience, ideally in energy storage or power systems.
Electrical engineering fundamentals: circuit analysis, analog/digital electronics, high-voltage design.
Power electronics: DC-DC/DC-AC converters, inverters, switching power supplies, grid-tie systems.
Battery systems: Li-ion/LiFePO4 technologies, BMS design, charging algorithms, safety systems.
Software: embedded programming (C/C++, Python), communication protocols (CAN, Modbus).
Physics background in electromagnetics, thermodynamics, and measurement principles.
PCB design tools (Altium Designer, KiCad).
Circuit simulation tools (LTSpice, MATLAB/Simulink).
Test equipment operation.
Familiarity with UL 1741, IEEE 1547, NEC standards.
