Hardware Electronics Engineer

About Us

Daanaa is a Vancouver-based fabless power electronics and semiconductor company on a mission to build a simpler, efficient future in energy generation, storage, distribution, consumption, and management, for generations ahead. The company is in the early commercialization stages of deep tech power conversion and control technologies, offering innovative solutions to OEMs in multiple industries, including solar energy, electric vehicles, and data centers.

Daanaa's value is derived from its transformative Power Transaction Unit (PTU) that consolidates power electronic functions—from bi-directional conversion and amplification to management, transfer, diagnostics, and control—onto a single, high-power-density, high-efficiency, low-profile, scalable, reliable, and safe module. At Daanaa, we are building a world of Energy Untethered™.

We are growing here at Daanaa and are looking for an Hardware Electronics Engineer to support the design, development, testing, and validation of our next-generation power electronics and semiconductor hardware. In this role, you will execute PCB design and layout, support prototype bring-up and hardware validation, troubleshoot electrical issues, and contribute to reliable, manufacturable hardware designs through commercialization.

What You'll Do

• Develop and modify electrical schematics and PCB layouts, including component selection, placement, routing, library management, and design revisions.
• Apply sound electrical and PCB design practices related to signal integrity, grounding, creepage, clearance, EMI/EMC, and manufacturability.
• Support prototype board bring-up and execute electrical characterization, verification, and validation using oscilloscopes, DMMs, power supplies, electronic loads, and other laboratory equipment.
• Analyze and document test results, measurements, and hardware performance to support engineering decisions and design improvements.
• Troubleshoot electrical and electronic issues at the component, PCB, and system level, identifying root causes and implementing corrective actions.
• Support component selection, design reviews, engineering changes, PCB revisions, hardware releases, and manufacturing documentation.
• Collaborate with senior engineers and cross-functional teams across hardware, firmware, mechanical, systems, manufacturing, and suppliers.
• Contribute to improving hardware reliability, performance, quality, and manufacturability through the product development lifecycle.

What You'll Bring

• 3+ years of hands-on experience in electrical or hardware engineering, with experience in PCB design, hardware development, testing, or troubleshooting.
• Strong foundation in schematic capture, PCB layout, analog and digital electronics, power electronics, component selection, and electrical design principles.
• Hands-on experience with PCB design tools and translating engineering requirements and schematics into accurate, manufacturable hardware designs.
• Practical experience with prototype bring-up, electrical testing, and characterization using laboratory equipment such as oscilloscopes, DMMs, power supplies, and electronic loads.
• Strong troubleshooting and root-cause analysis skills, with the ability to use schematics, datasheets, measurements, and test data to diagnose and resolve hardware issues.
• High attention to detail and a strong commitment to design quality, accuracy, documentation, and manufacturability.
• Ability to take ownership of assigned work, execute accurately and on schedule, and progressively operate with greater independence.
• Strong communication and collaboration skills when working with senior engineers and multidisciplinary teams.
• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, or a related engineering discipline.
• Experience with power electronics, power conversion, semiconductors, automotive, renewable energy, or other complex electronic systems is an asset.
