About Pulsenics

Pulsenics is catalyzing novel breakthroughs for electrochemical technologies that decarbonize our planet. Pulsenics’ innovation is the first to apply advanced spectroscopy techniques to industrial electrochemical applications, at scale, to target the industry’s energy waste problem. Our mission is to change how the industry, making up 15% of the world’s GDP, uses its energy.

“Pulsenics” means “Pulse Generation.”

True to its name, our proprietary hardware injects non-disruptive electrical pulses into an electrochemical system to extract a unique signature for its State-of-Health. When combined with our Data Management Software, this untapped data unlocks fundamental insights that lead to the most energy efficient operations, at scale.

Pulsenics hardware and software is currently being used by customers around the world to improve electrochemical system design and performance. Pulsenics’ customers run diverse electrochemical systems ranging from fuel cells and batteries to wastewater treatment and metallurgy.

At Pulsenics, you will have the opportunity to have a direct impact on the development of our next generation hardware and software products, alongside our world-class team of innovators and engineers!

Responsibilities:

• Lead the hardware development of 10kW to 100kW converters, inverters, battery chargers, and variable frequency drives from conceptualization, simulation, hardware design, control development and testing.
• Provide guidance and review of PCB and system level design to ensure high performance of the power electronics systems.
• Demonstrate expertise in designing with MOSFETS, IGBT, SiC, and GaN devices.
• Work independently on small projects or as part of a large multi-discipline team on larger projects, including working with both in-house inter-discipline engineers and partners to provide our clients the highest quality service and products.
