Quaise Energy is unlocking Earth's deep heat to deliver clean, reliable, baseload energy at scale - almost anywhere in the world. As both a technology innovator and project developer, Quaise builds and operates solutions that harness superhot geothermal energy far below the surface, enabling power generation that can rival the output of today's most efficient fossil fuel and nuclear plants. Leveraging millimeter wave drilling, developed after more than a decade of research at MIT, Quaise's mission is to make superhot geothermal a backbone of the modern energy system, offering affordable, zero-carbon power and true energy independence for communities and nations everywhere. Quaise is seeking a self-driven, energetic, and experienced Electrical or Electronics Engineer to join our team in pursuing the world's most abundant source of clean energy by developing cutting-edge high temperature electronics for downhole logging and measurement telemetry tools. The ideal candidate will have the ability to identify requirements from a simple set of end objectives, lead and participate in electrical design and integration efforts, and contribute to technology development for geothermal applications, which involves researching, designing downhole circuits, collaborating, learning, sourcing, integrating, implementing, performing design-of-experiments, analyzing results, and building on lessons learned. Essential functions (Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform these essential functions.) Design, simulation, development, implementation, verification and validation of analog, digital, and power electronics-based systems & components used in downhole applications where the systems must withstand harsh environments and exhibit high reliability . Apply traditional downhole tool practices for innovative MMW (millimeter wave) drilled well and SHR ( Super-Hot Rock) geothermal products . This monitoring may be done while drilling with MMW or after drilling, in the thermal well's media for support of geothermal plant operations . Work with a multidisciplinary team of mechanical engineers, RF scientists, and drilling operators to deliver effective tools for drilling activities. Coordinate fabrication, installation and testing activities to ensure products and systems conform to engineering design and specification . Provide technical support to field operators, scientists, and engineering as it relates to electrical systems . Conduct lab experiments, design test plans and procedures, execute tests, and write detailed reports. Lead high temperature electronics tests and experiments, contributing to the development of downhole tool technology. Design and develop custom electronic circuits, including analog, digital, mixed signal systems and downhole power generat ion , with a focus on signal conditioning, filtering, control logic, digital signal processing, and power supplies. Utilize software tools to design circuits, create schematics, design PCB layouts, and run simulations. Fabricate and test working prototypes by wiring, soldering, and assembling electrical components, and develop packaging for finished designs. Performs other related duties as assigned. Additional related fields: Experience working within high voltage safety environments Experience with design of high voltage assemblies (air, solid, and oil dielectrics ) HV modulation protection circuits, high voltage/power sensors and interfaces, high isolation designs, opto-sensors , optical communication devices.
