Job Description:

VVater is seeking a highly skilled and innovative Electrical Engineer to join our team, primarily on the Research and Development Team, focusing on our Farady Reactor technology and the Advanced Low Tension Electroporation (ALTEP) process. This role involves a multidisciplinary approach, requiring knowledge of electronics, power electronics, electrical systems, chemical processes, material properties/design, and mechanical engineering. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in electrical and electrochemistry and a passion for developing cutting-edge solutions in water treatment and related applications.

Key Responsibilities:

Design, develop, and optimize electrical systems for the Farady Reactors and ALTEP process, focusing on scalability, efficiency, and reliability.

Design and develop low-voltage power systems, circuit boards, and control systems.

Create detailed electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, and technical documentation.

Conduct experimental research, including lab-scale testing, pilot-scale studies, and data analysis, to validate and refine electrochemical and mechanical designs.

Perform calculations, simulations, and analyses (e.g., thermal, electromagnetic) to optimize system performance and reliability.

Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams (R&D, mechanical, chemical, software) to integrate system components and ensure seamless functionality.

Troubleshoot and resolve technical challenges related to reactor performance, electrical systems, electrode materials, and chemical processes.

Contribute to improving electrode design, power delivery, and process control to enhance efficiency, minimize energy consumption, and reduce operational costs.

Oversee prototyping, testing, and validating electrical subsystems, analyzing performance data to guide design improvements.

Develop and document standard operating procedures (SOPs), design protocols, and safety guidelines for installing, operating, and maintaining electrical systems.

Stay updated on the latest technologies, techniques, and best practices in electrical, electroporation, and related fields to drive innovation.

Present technical findings, progress reports, and recommendations to management, partners, and external collaborators.

Support scale-up initiatives and field deployments, working with production teams, vendors, and contractors as needed.

Adhere to all safety protocols, quality standards, and regulatory requirements, ensuring compliance throughout the project lifecycle.

Qualifications:

Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Electrochemical Engineering, or a related field; a Ph.D. is a plus.

Preference will be given to candidates with Electrical Engineering degrees.

Proven experience in various types of electrical systems, frequencies, and exposure to harmonic systems, including designing power supplies.

Proven experience in various material science, physics, and other benefit industries.

Proven experience in electrochemical research, reactor design, or related electrochemical systems, ideally in water treatment or a similar application.

Familiarity with electrode materials, power…
