Electronics Systems Engineer

Full job description

Oscilla Power, Inc. (OPI) is developing advanced wave-energy systems that support critical U.S. defense, maritime security, ocean intelligence and offshore power applications. We are seeking an Electronics Systems Engineer to join our growing team and take a leading role in designing and integrating the electronics and control systems behind these mission-driven platforms.

Our systems convert ocean motion into reliable electrical power for remote, autonomous, and persistent maritime operations. This role is an opportunity to help deliver a strategically important capability, working on electronics hardware that will be deployed in demanding real-world environments.

As an Electronics Systems Engineer at OPI, you will design, model, prototype, and refine the electronics and SCADA subsystems that enable our wave-energy devices to operate. You will collaborate closely with mechanical, electromechanical, and hydrodynamics personnel, contribute to system architecture, and own major subsystems from concept through field testing.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead the design and development of electronic and SCADA subsystems for wave-energy platforms supporting defense and maritime security missions
• Create and maintain one-line and three-line diagrams, schematics, board/panel layouts, and logic diagrams
• Define electronics component and subsystem specifications, and functional requirements
• Guide configuration and programming of PLCs, VFDs, generators, sensors, and motion-control hardware; coordinate work across internal engineers and external contractors.
• Serve as an internal technical authority for PLCs and electronics-electromechanical systems integration.
• Support installation, commissioning, and troubleshooting of prototype and field-deployed electronics systems.
• Work across engineering disciplines to solve complex technical problems and optimize system performance for mission-critical environments.

Required Qualifications

• US citizen or Permanent Resident.
• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical or Electronics Engineering (or related field).
• 5+ years of relevant experience in industrial automation, power systems, motion control, or related domains.
• Hands-on expertise with PLCs, VFDs, and motion-control systems
• Proficiency in electrical system diagramming and modeling.
• Experience with MATLAB Simulink and/or Simscape
• Strong communication skills and ability to work effectively in a multidisciplinary engineering team.

Candidates who meet most but not all requirements are encouraged to apply.
