Company

hirify.global recycles lithium-ion batteries, recovers and refines critical minerals, and develops proprietary energy-storage systems for large-scale applications including AI data centers.

What you will do

• Own the low-voltage electrical architecture for power-electronics products and system-controller PCB assemblies.
• Design MCU-based controller hardware, communication protocols, module synchronization, current-sharing, and startup/shutdown sequencing.
• Develop isolated current, voltage, and temperature sensing circuits, auxiliary power supplies, wiring, grounding, and interconnect strategies.
• Design protective circuits including breaker and contactor drivers, hardware interlocks, and emergency-stop loops.
• Lead electrical testing and validation, including power cycling, fault analysis, and performance characterization.
• Collaborate with Mechanical, Firmware/Controls, Systems, Compliance, Supply Chain, Manufacturing, and Reliability teams through production and certification.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s or master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, focused on embedded systems, controls, or power electronics.
• 3–5 years of electrical-engineering experience with system-level control architecture for power-conversion or energy-storage products.
• Hands-on experience with MCU selection, memory and peripheral budgeting, and system-level control for power converters.
• Experience with CAN and Ethernet communications for module, controller, grid, and BMS interfaces.
• Knowledge of protection coordination, hardware interlocks, emergency-stop loops, fault detection, and sequencing logic; proficiency with circuit simulation and CAD tools such as Altium Designer, LTspice, or Simulink.
• Experience laying out control PCBs in noise-sensitive, high-power environments and using oscilloscopes, logic or protocol analyzers, and signal generators; willingness to travel up to 10%.

Culture & Benefits

• Full-time employment with compensation based on experience.
• Hands-on work spanning concept development, laboratory validation, manufacturing, reliability, and industry certification.
• Cross-functional collaboration on high-power energy-storage products and AI data-center applications.
