Job description

About SmartD Technologies

Founded in 2018, SmartD is seeking to disrupt the established century-old industry of electrical motor control. We are a Series A-funded team of innovators based in downtown Montreal, scaling a product that will save energy and be used by millions.

With strategic partners on board and a clear vision, we are focused on execution and bringing real value to our customers. If you are an expert in testing and troubleshooting complex electronic designs, passionate about power electronics, and want to work with a small, dedicated, and effective team, we invite you to join our mission.


The Impact of This Role

At SmartD, we value individual initiative and technical execution. As a Power Electronics Designer, you will be a \"hands-on\" expert bridging the gap between design and high-performance reality. You will:

  • Drive Disruption: Assist the hardware team in designing and improving inverter systems utilizing Wide Bandgap (WBG) technology and high-frequency electronic boards.
  • Enable Sustainability: Directly improve product efficiency by optimizing for Low THDi and Low common mode voltage, ensuring our VFDs set new standards for energy saving.
  • Lead Technical Outcomes: Take ownership of the testing lifecycle—from writing comprehensive testing plans to troubleshooting complex EMI/EMC issues and interfacing with software teams to ensure optimal system integration.


What You Bring

  • Technical Expertise:
  • Deep knowledge of Inverters, WBG, VFDs, and Filters.
  • Expertise in hardware board design mixing high power and high frequency.
  • Proficiency in Power Electronic troubleshooting and EMI/EMC mitigation.
  • Familiarity with motor control is considered a strong asset.
  • Experience:
  • 5+ Years of experience in Inverter/VFD design and electronic troubleshooting.
  • 5+ Years in electronic board design.
  • A proven \"hands-on\" track record in a lab or industrial environment.
  • Language: English (Professional) is required; French is considered a valuable asset.
  • Mindset: A dedicated problem-solver who thrives in a fast-paced startup environment where your voice is heard and your work has a tangible impact.


Benefits & Work Environment

  • Health & Security: Comprehensive coverage including Extended Health Care, Disability Insurance, and Life Insurance.
  • Time Off: 4 weeks of paid vacation (PTO) from day one.
  • Flexibility: A flexible schedule and hybrid work environment focused on results.
  • The Lab Advantage: We spend the majority of our time at our 425 rue Guy office. We believe hardware is a team sport; for power electronics, being hands-on in the lab is essential for the rapid troubleshooting and testing that drive our innovation.
  • Commute: Conveniently located a 10-minute walk from Lucien-L'Allier (Orange line) and with immediate access to bus lines 35, 36, and 71.


Our Hiring Process

We respect your time and maintain a transparent, 3-step process:

  • Introductory Call (20 min): A general discussion via Google Meet to align on interest and fit.
  • Technical Discussion (30 min): A technical deep-dive with the Department Head via Google Meet.
  • On-Site Interview (1 hour): An in-depth technical meeting with your future colleagues and a tour of our lab.
