You’ll be working with the product and engineering team.This team runs on coffee with an infectious passion to build products that have never been built before. Our Flexible Energy Stack consists of the e^pack (battery pack) and e^pump (charging station) which together unlock 15-minute rapid charging.Our philosophy: Break. Believe. Build.There’s no playbook for disruption. The only way to create a radical future is to continuously break, believe and build — You have to BREAK stuff, assumptions and the thumb rule. You have to BELIEVE in the process, in the team and through failures. You have to BUILD fast &amp; passionately and build to simplify. What you'll do: The Systems Engineer plays a critical role in defining, architecting, and integrating complex hardware products. This position bridges electrical, mechanical, firmware, manufacturing, and regulatory disciplines to ensure that all subsystems work together to deliver robust, reliable physical products that deliver product and business requirementsResponsibilities:<ul><li>Develop system architecture, including block diagrams, interface definitions, and cross-functional integration plans.</li><li>Work with mechanical, electrical, firmware, and software teams to ensure subsystem compatibility and alignment.</li><li>Conduct modeling and system-level analysis (thermal, power, reliability, controls, etc.).</li><li> Lead risk analysis, trade studies, and technical decision-making.</li><li>Own verification and validation (V&amp;V) planning, including defining system test protocols.</li><li>Support system integration during prototype bring-up and debug cross-disciplinary issues.</li><li>Maintain system documentation, requirement traceability, and regulatory compliance readiness.</li><li>Contribute to failure analysis (FMEA), field issue resolution, and continuous improvement of product robustness.</li><li>Ensure the cross compatibility of spec sheets (forward and backward) of products within the exponent ecosystem.</li><li>Manage the system engineering team and hire great talent that aligns with the values and direction of the company. </li></ul>The ideal candidate<ul><li>Has strong engineering fundamentals. </li><li>Has a strong analytical mindset to be able to drive objective, data driven decisions. </li><li>Bachelor's or master’s degree in electrical engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field.</li><li>Experience developing physical products (preference for EV experience)</li><li>Strong understanding of hardware–firmware integration.</li><li>Experience with requirements management and system-level documentation.</li><li>Familiarity with environmental, reliability, and compliance testing.</li><li>Excellent problem-solving and cross-functional communication skills. </li><li>Has experience managing people, specifically towards team management and building. </li></ul>What matters<ul><li>High ownership of work. </li></ul><ul><li>Quality of work</li><li>Hands on work and problem solving. </li><li>Approach towards problem-solving</li><li>Dissatisfaction towards mediocre work</li><li>Resilient attitude to bounce back after failing</li></ul>About usExponent simplifies energy for EVs.Co-founded by Arun Vinayak (Ather Energy's Founding Partner &amp; Former Chief Product Officer) and Sanjay Byalal (Former hardware strategic sourcing and cell strategy lead, Ather and Former Supply Chain Lead, HUL), Exponent focuses on solving two sides of the energy problem by building the e^pump (charging station) and e^pack (battery pack) which together unlock 15-min rapid charging.The 200+ strong team of passionate builders have a ton of EV experience and are currently looking for more builders to join one of the best EV teams in India to build &amp; scale Exponent.

We believe EVs have completed the 0 to 1 shift of driving better than conventional vehicles. However, for the industry to exponentially scale from 1 to 100, the underlying energy problem needs to be simplified.
