Hardware Engineer

With electric vehicles expected to be nearly 30% of new vehicle sales by 2025 and more than 50% by 2040, electric mobility is becoming a reality. ChargePoint (NYSE: CHPT) is at the center of this revolution, powering one of the world’s leading EV charging networks and a comprehensive set of hardware, software and mobile solutions for every charging need across North America and Europe.

We bring together drivers, businesses, automakers, policymakers, utilities and other stakeholders to make e-mobility a global reality.

Since our founding in 2007, ChargePoint has focused solely on making the transition to electric easy for businesses, fleets and drivers. ChargePoint offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to create an all-electric future and a trillion-dollar market.

At ChargePoint, we foster a positive and productive work environment by committing to live our values of Be Courageous, Charge Together, Love our Customers, Operate with Openness, and Relentlessly Pursue Awesome. These values guide how we show up every day, align, and work together to build a brighter future for all of us.

Join the team that is building the EV charging industry and make your mark on how people and goods will get everywhere they need to go, in any context, for generations to come.

At ChargePoint, we are building the future of electric mobility. As a Staff Hardware Engineer, you will serve as a key technical leader shaping the architecture and system-wide design of our next-generation EV charging hardware. You will tackle our most complex electrical engineering challenges, influencing hardware roadmaps and driving innovations that scale across North America and Europe.

You will own the system-level electrical architecture and lead the design of advanced PCBA solutions across our product portfolio. Acting as a domain expert, you will set technical direction, evaluate complex tradeoffs, and guide systems from conceptual block diagrams through to volume manufacturing. In your first 6–12 months, you will establish key architectural patterns, partner with cross-functional leadership (software, mechanical, thermal), and mentor engineering teams to elevate our hardware reliability and feature integration.

• Architect and own the system-level electrical design and Printed Circuit Board (PCB) strategies for next-generation charging platforms.
• Lead the development of complex board-level architectures, defining block diagrams, sub-components, and circuit-level implementations.
• Drive technical direction for the integration of embedded processors, high-speed interfaces, power electronics, analog sensing, and motor control.
• Partner with cross-functional leadership across software, mechanical, and thermal domains to define system boundaries and seamless integration strategies.
• Optimize global hardware designs for extreme reliability, cost-efficiency at scale, and advanced feature capabilities.
• Oversee the end-to-end lifecycle of critical systems, from discrete circuit conceptualization to volume manufacturing and global deployment.
• Establish rigorous testing, validation, and documentation standards to ensure robust performance and margin-to-limits across the engineering org.
• Mentor and provide technical guidance to junior and mid-level hardware engineers, elevating the overall technical bar and design practices of the team.
• Evaluate and select emerging hardware technologies, tools, and components to keep ChargePoint at the forefront of the EV industry.
• Resolve the most complex system-level hardware escalations and field deployment challenges.

• 8-12 years of experience engineering and architecting complex electronic products successfully placed into…
