The Role The
Sr Electrical Engineer
is responsible for the design, development, and validation of medium‑voltage electrical systems and components used in Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) and commercial electric vehicle (EV) platforms. The role focuses on component design, development, validation and system integration of components such as inverters, converters, wiring harnesses, transformers, charging systems and power distribution equipment. Senior EE will work on the development of both EV‑related systems and energy systems. The vehicle systems include new electric drive systems for heavy‑duty vehicles, including trucks, buses, boats, trains, port equipment, airport GSE, and other commercial vehicle systems. CSI also develops a line of BESS products to support transportable vehicle charging and grid support at temporary power locations. Strong experience in heavy‑duty vehicle systems and BESS functions such as grid charging, grid forming and following, export power, AC‑grid interaction, hybrid energy architectures, and compliance with industry standards such as UL1973, UL9540/UL9540A, and UL508 is required.
Key Responsibilities
Design, develop, and validate medium‑voltage (12–2000V) electrical subsystems for use in EV power platforms and stationary energy solutions.
Specify and integrate components including inverters, converters, power distribution units, transformers, AC‑DC and DC‑DC power modules, charging systems, lithium and sodium batteries, power distribution panels, harnesses, and connectors.
Ensure all designs comply with relevant industry standards and certifications, including UL1973, UL508, UL9540A, and applicable grid codes.
Conduct electrical system‑level calculations including load flow, short‑circuit, fault protection, thermal analysis, and grounding strategies.
Interpret AC grid requirements and apply system‑level knowledge to the integration of CSI products into customer applications.
Create and maintain technical documentation, including schematics, interface specifications, wiring diagrams, test plans, and validation reports.
Support testing and commissioning activities, including field validation, issue troubleshooting, and system optimization.
Participate in cross‑functional collaboration with mechanical, software, and controls engineers, as well as suppliers and customers.
Support cost estimation, BOM development, and trade‑off analysis for component selection and system design.
Provide mentorship and technical guidance to junior engineers and technicians as required.
Maintain awareness of emerging industry standards, energy technologies, and competitive systems.
Qualifications
Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or related field required; Master’s or higher degree preferred.
Minimum 5 years (7–10 desired) of professional experience in medium‑voltage electrical system design or energy system integration.
Knowledge of high‑power electrical systems for both mobile and stationary applications.
Experience working with battery energy storage systems (BESS), microgrids, and high‑power vehicle charging systems.
Knowledge of medium voltage 600–1000V safety and design standards.
Experience with commercial EVs, heavy‑duty vehicle electrification, or mobile power systems.
Exposure to renewable energy systems (solar, wind, generator hybrid).
Familiarity with UL certification processes, including UL1973, UL9540A, and UL508.
Proficiency in electrical design tools and simulation platforms (e.g., AutoCAD Electrical, PLECS, Simulink, MATLAB).
Physical Job Requirements
Position requires access to and use of a computer terminal, hands‑on operation of laboratory test and prototyping equipment, and some lifting of test equipment and battery modules.
Location This position is on‑site in Livermore, CA.
Travel Some travel to visit suppliers, customers, and CSI locations as needed.
Hours, Benefits & Compensation
Compensation Range:
$150k – $200k, depending on experience and qualifications.
Medical, dental, and vision insurance.
401(k) with company matching.
Paid time off.
Office Hours:
8:00 AM – 5:00 PM (Monday–Friday).
