  • Proficiency in schematic capture and PCB layout tools - we use KiCAD
  • Experience with communication protocols: CAN Bus, Ethernet, ModBus, I2C, SPI
  • Understanding of embedded systems and controller integration - we use STM32
  • Familiarity with design techniques for harsh environments (vibration, temperature, EMC/EMI)
  • Basic Linux experience and comfort with automated testing concepts
  • Knowledge of wire harness design and routing principles
  • Experience with EMC/EMI mitigation techniques
  • Nice to have: Safety-critical system design experience (ISO 26262, EN 50126/8/9, or similar)
  • Ability to thrive in fast-paced, high-pressure startup environments
  • Proactive self-starter who can execute with minimal supervision
  • Passion for clean energy and sustainable transportation
  • Bonus: Experience with battery electric vehicles, BMS systems, or locomotive/rail applications
