About the role:
Enphase is seeking Embedded Firmware Engineers to join our engineering and technology teams. These engineers will be responsible for firmware development for Enphase Ensemble series of energy generation and storage products. This engineer will create intellectual property and demonstrate it with prototype designs. This engineer will transition work from conception to engineering to production, while collaborating with teams in California, Texas, India, and New Zealand.
This position is within our Firmware Engineering group, where you will work with a small team to develop fully functional prototypes to demonstrate new advanced operation and control for autonomous grid connection, management and regulation. You will be working in a multi-site team and expected to interface across multiple functions.
What you will be doing:
-
Design and implement embedded firmware on an RTOS or bare-metal, for the Enpower™ smart switch and a new combiner product in the Ensemble™ eco-system.
- Work with the marketing and hardware teams to specify the requirements of new products.
-
Design and implement algorithms and state machines for the smart switch (to select power sources) or the load controller (to manage loads).
- Ability to carry a design task from concept to implementation.
-
Working with cross functional teams to test and troubleshoot issues.
- Self-motivated individual with the ability to work under minimal supervision
Who you are and what you bring:
- BE/BTech/MS/MTech in electrical engineering, electronics and communication, Instrumentation, computer engineering, or computer science

Minimum 3 to 8 years of hands-on experience in firmware development and debugging in ARM based microcontrollers.
-
Good understanding of C/C++ programming, RTOS concepts and microcontroller internals required.
-
Experience in working on large embedded systems with communication interfaces like CAN, SPI, I2C, UART desired.
-
Familiarity with functional safety analysis, or control theory (such as PLLs, PID, distributed control, stability analysis) desired.
-
Familiarity with development tools such as Keil, GCC, GDB, Eclipse, GNU Make, etc desired.
- Familiarity with git, Jira and Confluence desired.
-
Good written and verbal communication skills required.
- Basic knowledge of Solar, energy storage, and microgrid products desired.
