Job Description:
Full‐Time Position
COMPANY OVERVIEW
MagCanica, Inc., a leading global provider of non‐invasive torque sensor systems for high performance powertrains, is actively seeking new members to join our San Diego based team as we expect continued growth during 2023 and beyond. Since the Company’s inception, MagCanica has focused its efforts on the development and commercialization of its non‐contact torque sensor technology which is used to measure torque on high performance powertrains across the motorsport, aerospace, and energy sectors. MagCanica is the global market leader in motorsport torque sensing and powertrain performance monitoring across a variety of automotive racing series including Formula 1, Formula E, World Endurance Championship (WEC) Hypercar, IMSA GTP, NASCAR, and Cross‐Country Rally Car. Additionally, MagCanica provides hardware, support services, and technology to the US Navy as well as Sikorsky Aircraft and Vericor Power Systems. Leveraging its leading position worldwide in motorsport torque measurement, and solving some of the most challenging torque measurement problems facing the automotive, aerospace, and energy industries, MagCanica is poised to expand further in its existing markets as well as into new markets such as high‐performance sports cars and electric and autonomous vehicles.
JOB DESCRIPTION & TYPICAL TASKS
The primary role of the Electrical Hardware Engineer will be to help upgrade the electrical hardware in MagCanica’s product line and the associated test and validation equipment. This role will require expertise and execution on the detailed sub‐system level, and also on the broader systems‐level perspective. Such a breadth and depth of perspective will empower the Electrical Hardware Engineer to use his or her knowledge of analog, digital, and mixed signal fundamentals to design, develop, test, and validate a combination of new product designs, process improvements, and in‐house calibration hardware platforms. This will include design specification, design analysis, prototype testing and validation, in‐house characterization and validation, directing final product manufacture, and release to clients both internal and external. To accomplish this, the Electrical Hardware Engineer will have to communicate effectively in order to relay his or her expertise to a very multidisciplinary group of Mechanical, Embedded Software, and Test Engineers. The Electrical Hardware Engineer will need to effectively explain his or her electrical hardware perspective to team members less familiar with the topics, while also understanding and integrating the expertise brought to bear by the other engineering disciplines. Additional tasks may include: hardware‐interface level development of embedded software in the C language, meeting with customers and suppliers to communicate design requirements, applications engineering of customer installations, and failure analysis.

Skill Requirements
Educational Requirements
A Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering is preferred but outstanding applicants having a Bachelor’s degree will be seriously considered. Two to four year of professional engineering experience are preferred, but outstanding applicants without prior experience will also be considered.
The Type of Person We Are Looking For
We are looking for self‐motivated and committed engineers who have the ability to learn quickly and possess outstanding technical and interpersonal skills. Our approach to engineering is highly interdisciplinary and involves a unique combination of theory and execution. This means carrying out rigorous analysis and experimentation, and then actually building and testing functional hardware. It also means constantly pushing the boundaries and seeking continuous optimization and improvement in the product line and associated processes, with a solution‐oriented approach and a can‐do attitude. We are looking for individuals who are both very well‐organized and highly flexible. Such candidates can fulfill multiple roles, and can work effectively even with limited supervision, while at the same time thriving in a dynamic multidisciplinary team environment. Successful candidates will have a strong attention to detail, a genuine concern for outstanding quality, and the ability to interact positively and effectively with clients and colleagues from all over the world.
