Job description

Electric Era was founded to actualize the transition to a 100% renewable energy powered world. We are a high tech, high intensity company founded and operated by engineers on a mission to revolutionize the world's electric vehicle charging infrastructure.

The Job & Role:

We do things differently at Electric Era. If you’ve ever wanted to really own software engineering design decisions and take control of your designs all the way through to implementation we have that here. Everyone, from our junior engineers to our CEO, has a strong ownership mentality. We have a small, lean, hard-charging team; we can’t afford not to have people obsessed with owning engineering outcomes.

If you want your stuff to see the light of day fast, we have that here. No miles of red tape or bureaucracy. If it’s important, it happens. If it’s easily messed up, it’s simplified, then given a process. If the process is onerous, it’s deleted. We don’t have time to sit around, so you can guarantee that things move fast.

The best idea wins; everyone can and is expected to contribute to good system design, to challenge bad requirements and decision decisions, and always move the puck forward.

Electric Era is looking for strong embedded software engineers that want everything described above. You will be part of a world-class team that owns the complete product life cycle deliverable from ideation, development, implementation, testing and troubleshooting real problems in the field.

The Responsibilities:

Developing embedded software for bare metal microcontrollers and embedded Linux platforms

Designing, building, and supporting software architectures across our stack, including but not limited to development in:

Reliable and resilient remote OTA software update strategies

Buildsystems and test infrastructure for unit and integration testing of firmware

Inter-device communication methodologies (using CAN, Ethernet, and serial protocols)

Telemetry systems to enable remote observability

Implement control systems for liquid cooling systems and high-power power electronics up to megawatt-class systems

Support safety-critical systems through UL certification

Build systems and work closely with hardware engineers to enable rigorous environmental testing of our charging systems

Take ownership of formal code review, test, and acceptance criteria for embedded software

Manage software deliverables through production and into the field, participating in on-call rotations and supporting your product in a real-world environment

Preferred Qualifications & Skills:

5 to 7+ years of consumer/industrial electronics, aerospace, or automotive embedded systems or programming experience

Strong understanding of Linux kernel development, including Yocto-based buildsystems

Proficient in C/C++ and Python (Golang, Typescript, and Rust are also helpful)

Ability to understand and implement drivers for a variety of ASICs

Capability to manage complex and multidisciplinary software projects, including requirements capture, implementation, verification, and validation

Experience with supporting in-field products, including remote diagnosis of embedded systems

Experience with supporting products through UL 1998, IEC 61508, or ISO 26262 certification

Strong understanding of security infrastructure, including PKI and chain-of-trust systems on microcontrollers and embedded Linux systems

Strong verbal and written communication skills and hard driving attitude
