Job Description

Today, our intelligent microinverters, which turn sunlight into an affordable, safe, reliable, and scalable source of energy, work with virtually every solar panel made, and when paired with our award-winning smart battery technology, we engineer one of the industry's best-performing clean energy systems. To date, we have installed more than 36 million microinverters on more than 1.5 million homes across 130 countries.

Like our customers, our innovative teams are also worldwide, making Enphase Energy a truly global company. We are one of the fastest growing and most dynamic energy companies in the world. Nimble and acutely focused on developing ground-breaking solar energy management technology, each of our teams have a shared goal of creating a carbon-free future.

At Enphase we are also committed to diversity and inclusion. Developing cutting edge technology requires a workforce as diverse as the populations we wish to serve. We are a values-driven company that puts people and their power at the center of our shared energy future.

As we work towards our vision for a solar-powered planet, we need visionary and talented recent graduates to join our team as Systems Engineer Interns.

We are looking for broad skill sets - engineers interested and capable of contributing on several of many possible topics. These include embedded software, bare metal firmware, hardware design, control systems, test automation, system requirements and architecture, wireless communication, and others.

Responsibilities:

• Address system-level challenges for Enphase's microgrid products

• Focus on system-level control design

• Software implementation, testing, and requirements definitions

Minimum Qualifications:

• Pursuing a BS, MS, or Ph.D. in a relevant engineering major, such as electrical, computer, mechanical, software, or a formal systems engineering program.

• MCU working knowledge (programming boards, using bootloaders, register maps, map files, read schematics)
• Programming – C, C++, and/or Python with some experience writing test scripts
• Precise documentation skills - attention to detail and ability to organize and record test findings
• Communication protocols – IP, SPI, UART, CAN, Modbus, PLC, and others
• Bench skills - lots of hands-on experience with experimentation and instrumentation such as metering, scopes, power supplies, and power simulators

What would make you stand out?

• Solar, energy storage, and microgrid products and projects

• Prior bench-test experience in a development laboratory (not production QA/QC) up to 600VAC

• Basic Power Electronics courses including electrical grid knowledge and reactive power

• Awareness of utility interconnection standards including “smart inverter” fail safe regulations, power export and reverse power flows
