Staff Electrical Engineer

Staff Electrical Engineer

SirenOpt® provides metrology and manufacturing intelligence solutions that accelerate sustainable and smart manufacturing of advanced coatings, thin films and nano-scale materials, with demonstrated use cases across battery, semiconductor, aerospace, electronics and many other industries. Micro- or nano-scale materials enable many high-growth industries, including lithium, sodium and solid-state batteries, solar cells, carbon sequestration and conversion technologies, optical devices, quantum devices, displays, adhesives, medical implants, semiconductors, packaging materials, and many others.

SirenOpt is pioneering a paradigm shift in advanced materials characterization by leveraging cold atmospheric plasma, machine learning and predictive analytics to non-destructively create uniquely distinctive, multifaceted material fingerprints in real-time. SirenOpt transforms current measurement blind spots into rich multi-layered material insights, which enable intelligent performance-centric decision-making. SirenOpt thus accelerates R&D and process optimization, enhances product performance, and delivers higher production quality to maximize value in both standalone (benchtop) and integrated (in-line) applications.

We are seeking a highly skilled Staff Electrical Engineer. As an early-stage member of the SirenOpt team, you will be able to make a real impact on next-generation technologies. The ideal candidate will learn new concepts quickly and take pride in the quality of their work. We expect that you will solve a wide range of technical challenges efficiently and creatively. Some of these problems may lie outside your core areas of expertise, so technical curiosity and a self-starting attitude are critical for success.

This role offers an exciting opportunity to be at the forefront of technological innovation, working with cutting-edge systems in a collaborative and dynamic environment. If you are a driven and skilled engineer looking to make a significant impact on advanced material science industry, we encourage you to apply.

In this role you will:

• Heavily contribute to the electrical design and validation of the cold atmospheric plasma-based metrology system.
• Interface with a small, cross-functional project team to research, develop, and validate new concepts for low-temperature plasma-based metrology.
• Closely interact with both small and large clients to iterate on the design based on their feedback, paying close attention to integration speed
• Create and maintain technical design documentation (e.g., requirements, wiring diagrams, schematics, and test reports)

You have:

• B.S./M.S./PhD in Electrical Engineering or related field with 5+ years of electrical design experience.
• Vast experience with High Voltage PCB designs (above 5kv) from electron optic or electron beam companies.
• Experience with full PCB design cycle, from concept, through schematics, layout Manufacturing, bring-up, testing and SW/HW integration.
• Experience with mix-signal PCB designs that include analog, digital and high voltage components.
• Experience with DfX processes, SRD, CDR, DDR, etc.
• Experience working in multidiscipline environment, collaborating closely with Project, system, SW, Mechanic and Algo engineers.
• Demonstrated the ability to adapt to new technical challenges and excited to work in a fast-paced, multi-disciplinary environment.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills

Nice to have:

• Experience with regulatory compliance (CE, UL, etc.)
• Prior exposure to high-precision, high-throughput industrial designs for material handling, metrology, and/or process automation applications are a plus.
• Experience with metrology equipment and sensors, particularly those used for metrology of advanced materials
• Experience in developing and optimizing prototypes and embedded PCBs, including FPGA design with VHDL/Verilog for signal/image processing in real-time data acquisition.
