  • Customer support and lifecycle engagement
  • Support customers through the design and development lifecycle, including simulation, prototyping, and performance validation

  • Lead technical discussions with customer engineering teams to evaluate their system needs, identify design constraints, and propose actionable solutions

  • Experience managing external vendors for custom motor projects
  • Experience or familiarity with various motor topologies (e.g., IPM, PMa-SynRM, VFMMs)
  • Excellent time management skills with a proven ability to meet deadlines
  • Effective written and verbal communication skills that adapt to the audience (e.g., internal vs. customers)
  • Our pay and benefits

  • Salary : $110,000 - $140,000 annually, depending on experience, education, and skills
  • Equity position in Niron via stock option grant
