Senior Pulsed Power Engineer Pulsed Power Engineering Lead

About Us

Eden is pioneering sustainable natural resource recovery by using electricity to enhance subsurface permeability. Our Electrical Reservoir Stimulation technology offers a precise water-efficient alternative to traditional hydraulic fracturing reducing environmental risks while maximizing resource extraction.

Backed by leading public and private institutions we have raised $24M including $14M in dilutive capital from industry leaders such as Anglo American and Helmerich & Payne along with climate-focused investors like the Grantham Foundation. Additionally we have secured $10M in non-dilutive funding primarily through four DOE ARPA-E grants that support our R&D in frontier industries.

Headquartered in Somerville MA and with an office in Houston TX Edens team of 16 experts specializes in geophysics geochemistry high-voltage engineering and subsurface tool design. We are actively demonstrating our next-generation permeability enhancement technology across diverse geologies worldwide collaborating with industry leaders in geothermal energy geologic hydrogen carbon storage and mining to redefine resource recovery for a carbon-neutral future.

Looking ahead we are preparing for field tests in cooperation with our supportive technical partners.

Your Impact

• Own design and development of nextgeneration pulsed power systems (Marx or related fast highvoltage architectures) delivering repeatable highenergy micro to millisecond pulses.
• Architect modular fielddeployable generator stacks (charging storage switching pulseforming measurement protection) for reliability waveform fidelity and rugged field operation.
• Run trade studies on switching topologies (spark gap solidstate hybrid) insulation schemes and energy delivery to balance rise time repetition rate efficiency serviceability and cost.
• Integrate highspeed diagnostics sensing and controls to monitor pulse shape energy and component health; iterate from lab and pilot data.
• Collaborate with geoscience teammates to connect pulse parameters with permeability gains and fracture geometry outcomes.
• Draft technical reports funding proposals stakeholder updates and safety / operations documentation.
• Establish and enforce rigorous HV/EHS protocols (arc flash interlocks grounding remote operation).
• Support field mobilizations: configure commission operate and troubleshoot systems (travel 1025%).

About You

• PhD or Masters (with equivalent depth) in Electrical / Pulsed Power / Power Electronics / HighVoltage Engineering (or closely related).
• 5 years designing building and testing highvoltage pulsed power systems (e.g. Marx generators pulseforming networks solidstate switch stacks) from concept to hardware integration.
• Strong command of: fast switching (spark gap solidstate or hybrid) capacitor energy storage insulation coordination pulse diagnostics (dV/dt dI/dt impedance matching) and protection.
• Demonstrated ability to make sound technical/economic decisions with incomplete data under time pressure.
• Experience creating and enforcing safety practices for highvoltage / highenergy lab or field environments.
• Collaborative lowego communicator comfortable working across hardware controls and geoscience domains.

Preferred but Not Required
