## About the role

Join Redwood Materials to validate the high-voltage power electronics behind the world’s energy storage systems. You’ll design and run validation tests on components and assemblies operating at 400–2000VDC and 480–800VAC. You’ll work directly from schematics, Altium layouts, and datasheets to understand switching topologies, gate drive, isolation, protection, and thermal behavior, then use that understanding to build sharper tests. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

- Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics, or a related field
- 5+ years of technical experience in test engineering, hardware validation, or power electronics development
- Hands-on experience with high-voltage systems (400–2000VDC and 480–800VAC)
- Proficiency with Altium or similar EDA tools, fluency reading schematics, layouts, and component datasheets
- Comfort at the bench with oscilloscopes, probes, and general lab instrumentation
- Working knowledge of power conversion — switching topologies, gate drive, isolation, protection, and thermals
