As an EV Charging and Vehicle-To-Grid (V2G) Principal Systems Engineer, the successful candidate will lead the architecture and development of new charging systems and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) bidirectional charging. The candidate will also be participating in the architecture of several charging systems developed at Enphase Energy, including the development of new connectivity methods and new metering.  

In this role the successful candidate will:  

• Develop Single- and three-phase AC/DC bidirectional  power systems, and integrate the same with PV inverters and EV charging systems
• Use his/her rich experience in the EV charging domain to drive the architecture and development of new systems, including EV connectivity, metering and V2G applications.
• Develop system requirement and cascade requirements to specific components for all charging control systems in response to solar, micro-inverters, battery, energy management, and typical EVSE’s and charging-related components and/or demands using a requirements management tool.
• Implement an energy transfer strategy with hardware and software that is within the bounds of ISO15118 standards
• Author the systems requirement document (SRD) along with architectural documents including but not limited to the interface documents, sequence diagrams and integration plans. 
• Lead the integration efforts once prototypes are made available in the systems engineering labs, including communication and power testing efforts, to make sure that the design meets the initial design.
  Report on progress to management, orally and in presentation form. 
• Will establish relationships with key partners that are relevant to the domain. 
• Execute validation, system management, FMEA, and diagnostic requirements for the management of EVSE.
