Role Description
We are seeking a creative, hands-on Senior Research Engineer to lead ambiguous sensing and measurement problems with real-world impact.
You will become an expert in how our grid sensor signals behave in the real world. You will investigate sensing issues and performance via exploratory data analysis, hardware simulation, and bench debugging, design improvements, and validate improvements using test infrastructure you develop. You will define sensing requirements, develop measurement-chain improvements, and help mature new sensing capabilities.
This position focuses on measurement performance, validation, and technology transfer rather than product design and implementation.
