## About the role

Base is hiring an Electronics Design Engineer to design the power electronics inside our home batteries: inverters, battery management systems, and microgrid interconnect devices. You'll own boards from schematic to production, bring them up on the bench, and validate them at high voltage and high current. You'll work closely with mechanical, firmware, test, and reliability engineers to get designs into high-volume manufacturing. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- Power semiconductors (Si and SiC MOSFETs, IGBTs), gate drivers, and magnetics
- Embedded firmware and microcontroller peripherals
- CAN, LIN, or Ethernet networking
- Basic control theory: sensor bandwidth, filtering, and loop stability
- Electric motors, thermal design, or mechanical integration
- Leadership on a Formula SAE, solar car, or similar hands-on engineering team
