Hi weareecobee.

ecobee introduced the worlds first smart Wi-Fi thermostat to help millions of consumers save money conserve energy and bring home automation into their lives. That was just the beginning. We continue our pursuit to create technology that brings peace of mind into the home and allows people to focus on the moments that matter most. We take pride in making a meaningful difference to the environment all while being part of the exciting connected home revolution.

In 2021 ecobee became a subsidiary of Generac Power Systems. Generac introduced the first affordable backup generator and later created the category of automatic home standby generator. The company is committed to sustainable cleaner energy products poised to revolutionize the 21st century electrical grid. Together we take pride in making a meaningful difference to the environment.

Why we love to do whatwe do:

Were helping build the world of tomorrow with solutions that improve everyday life while making a positive impact onthe planet. Ourproducts and serviceswork in harmonytoprovide comfort efficiency and peace of mind for millions of homes and businesses. While were proud of what weve done so far theres still a lot we can doand you can be part of it.

Join our extraordinary team.

Were a rapidly growing global tech company headquartered in Canada in the heart of downtown Toronto with an office in Leeds UK and remote ecopeeps in the US. We get to work with some of North America and UKs leading professionals. Our colleagues are proud to bring their authentic selves to work confident that what we do is grounded in a greater purpose. Were always looking for curious talented and passionate people to join our team.

Wholl You Be Joining

Our Hardware team is made up of engineers with a wide variety of specialties skill sets backgrounds and experiences ranging from HVAC control to RF design digital logic avionics test fixtures embedded software development PCB layout and power electronics. They aim to bring their wide experience to the cross-functional squads that they are a part of with a focus on collaboration learning development.

As a Senior Electrical Engineer your responsibilities will include bringing new electrical products and systems from concept into production ensuring designs are manufacturable reliable and compliant with industry standards. This role bridges electrical design and manufacturing driving projects from concept through mass production with a focus on quality cost and schedule.

Working in the Hardware Engineering department your involvement in product development will go far beyond circuit design as you will also be tasked to invent creative and novel ways to create incredible products. Your understanding of the often-conflicting demands of industrial design manufacturability thermal management battery life signal integrity and user experience will enable you invent beautiful and eloquent solutions to impossible problems. A strong technical background in the schematic design of a wide range of domains including high speed digital design analog instrumentation RF systems and high-voltage power supplies will enable you to quickly translate designs from schematics to manufacturing.

To create reliable and lasting products for our customers it is also important that Design for Manufacturing Design for Assembly and Design for Test are core to the development cycle. Working closely with engineers from other teams including embedded test fixtures manufacturing and mechanical engineering you will engage in collaborative engineering discussions ranging from system architecture to RF protocol development production test philosophy antenna design thermal management mechanical design and even industrial design (to name a few). Your valued insights will be instrumental to the cooperative effort that is cornerstone to ecobee product development.

This role follows a hybrid schedule requiring four days per week in the office to support collaboration and flexibility to work remotely for the remainder of the week.
