Job Description

Our mission is to move humanity off of fossil fuel heating. 20% of US global warming emissions come from homes (that's more than cars!). The largest driver of home emissions is burning fossil fuels for heat. To stop climate change, over 80M US homes need to transition from combustion to efficient, electric heat pumps over the coming decades.

We believe for this to happen the world needs fantastic products that are easy and desirable to purchase. Today's heat pumps lack great design, make limited use of software, and are difficult and stressful to adopt. We are building a next generation, beautifully designed, smart home heating and cooling system that is 10x better than what is on the market today.

Role

Quilt is hiring a Mechatronics Hardware Engineer to play a key, cross-functional role in both ensuring the quality of our current product line and developing our next-generation products. 

We are looking for an enthusiastic builder who thrives at the intersection of mechanical, electrical, and software engineering. The ideal candidate will be passionate about hardware development and writing software to validate hardware and sensor performance.

Minimum Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics, or equivalent experience.
  • Strong hardware prototyping skills. Proven record of projects using Arduino, Raspberry Pi, or equivalent.
  • Some experience designing, debugging, and validating embedded systems
  • Some experience writing Python scripts to interface with hardware
  • Strong problem-solving and analytical skills, with the ability to develop tests to debug complex issues and propose effective solutions.
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to work effectively in cross-functional teams.
  • Able to self-guide, identify problems and propose & implement solutions, to move towards a shared goal.
  • Passion for electrification and home automation.
  • All jobs at Quilt Data
