Enphase Energy Careers

Description

• Own, define, architect, implement and execute the automation of either FW DVT or System DVT using Python and other scripts and languages.
• Define and document test strategy, test plans and test architecture.
• Provide technical leadership to junior engineers on automating and executing DVT.
• Execute functional, performance and compliance DVT of FW and SYS DVT manually as required.
• Work with FW, HW and System Engineering teams to gather detailed requirements and plan test strategy and test plan ahead of test cycles.
• Understand consumer behaviors and design engineering requirements and conduct DVT for both ends of the DVT spectrum.
• Collaborate with HW, FW and other teams to help reproduce and debug issues without getting biased with design details but exhibit independence in DVT.
• Use productivity tools like JAMA for creating and maintaining test cases and test runs linked with requirements; report issues through JIRA and track them to closure.
• Follow the process as required for the given test cycle and make sure KPIs like test execution rate and defect leakages are met.
• Device test coverage to ensure Enphase products qualify only after meeting quality, performance, safety and reliability benchmarking.
• Be a DVT engineer who protects Enphase customer interests by living in 'customer's shoes'.
• Develop test automation system to enable FW/System testing automatically and continuously improve test execution rate by increasing automation and reducing manual tests.

• BS in Electrical/Electronic engineering with 8+ years of experience or MS with 5+ years of experience or PhD 3+ years of experience in design/ verification/ test of connected (IoT) Power converter / Energy storage products and automating test cases. 
• Must have 3+ years of experience in automating DVT that involve testing target hardware/system along with associated instruments like AC/Grid simulator, AC/DC loads, Analog signal and GPIO triggers, oscilloscope, power meters, etc., using Python or other scripts.
• Good understanding of basic electrical engineering concepts, including circuit theory and Electrical Power system.
• Good communication skills.
• Analytical, decision making and leadership skills.
• Ability to work effectively within a team.

• Expertise in DVT of BMS (Battery Management Systems) for Lithium-Ion Battery (or similar solid / semi-solid battery) for safe and reliable operations.
• Expertise in DVT of grid tied inverters for consumer and/or lite commercial applications. Experience with solar integrated application including MPPT is a plus.
• Experience with testing and automate testing products with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and Cellular with or without involving cloud application.
• Must have thorough understanding and experience in new product development/introduction processes that involve iterative process method like Agile with use of Tools like JAMA, JIRA (or similar tools) and DMS (data management system) like Arena.
• Experience through the various stages of firmware / hardware design, implementation, test, production, and maintenance.
• Must have experience in collaborating with other functionals like mechanical, hardware, firmware development teams, system engineering, product manager, production industrialization team, field service technicians, cloud/mobile App developers, product security and reliability. 
• Knowledgeable in worldwide electrical advanced grid functions and faults conditions.
• In-depth familiarity with AC grid simulators and solar panel simulators.
• In-depth familiarity with high volume product development, industrialization, and maintenance.
• Experience through the various stages of embedded software or firmware design, implementation, test, deployment, field upgrade and maintenance is a plus.
• Experience in testing products using mobile App, using cloud Apps, testing product cyber security features is a plus.
