Daanaa is a Vancouver-based fabless power electronics and semiconductor company on a mission to build a simpler, efficient future in energy generation, storage, distribution, consumption, and management. The company is in the early commercialization stages of deep‑tech power conversion and control technologies, offering innovative solutions to OEMs in multiple industries, including solar energy, electric vehicles, and data centers. Daanaa’s value is derived from its transformative Power Transaction Unit (PTU) that consolidates power electronic functions—from bi‑directional conversion and amplification to management, transfer, diagnostics, and control—into a single, high‑power‑density, high‑efficiency, low‑profile, scalable, reliable, and safe module. We are growing here at Daanaa and we’re looking to add a Senior Firmware Engineer to lead real‑time control architecture and embedded firmware development for advanced power electronics systems. This role is responsible for control‑loop design, hardware optimization, system bring‑up, and establishing best‑in‑class firmware development practices. Power Control Architecture: Lead the design and implementation of real‑time control loops (PID, resonant, state‑space, etc.) for power converters and inverter topologies. Optimize PWM strategies and sensing architectures to ensure stable operation across all load conditions. System Modeling & Simulation: Develop and validate control algorithms using MATLAB/Simulink or PLECS prior to deployment. Translate theoretical models into efficient, production‑grade C/C++ or HDL implementations. Hardware Optimization & Bring‑Up: Own firmware‑hardware integration, optimizing interactions with MCU peripherals, ADCs, PWMs, sensors, and actuators. Drive system bring‑up, debugging, and performance tuning using electronic lab equipment. Protection & Compliance Systems: Design ultra‑fast interrupt‑driven protection mechanisms for over‑voltage, over‑current, and thermal events. Ensure firmware compliance with relevant industry standards and safety regulations. Design Methodology & Quality Standards: Establish coding standards, conduct deep technical code reviews, and implement best‑in‑class firmware development, validation, and deployment practices. Mentorship & Technical Leadership: Mentor junior engineers, lead complex debugging efforts, and set the technical bar for firmware excellence across the team. 5–9 years of experience designing, validating, and productizing firmware for power electronics systems, battery management systems, or inverter platforms. Deep knowledge of switching topologies (Buck, Boost, LLC, PSFB) and inverter modulation techniques. Expertise in discrete‑time control theory, compensator design, and frequency‑response analysis within embedded systems. Expert‑level proficiency in C/C++ (and assembly where needed) for real‑time embedded applications. Strong experience with MCU peripherals for power applications (high‑resolution PWM, ADCs, analog subsystems). Experience using Verilog/VHDL to implement time‑critical logic in FPGA/CPLD environments. High proficiency in RTOS configuration and deterministic communication stacks (CAN, Modbus, Ethernet). Comfortable working in high‑power lab environments and debugging EMI, noise, and transient behavior using high‑bandwidth instrumentation. Practical experience designing firmware to international safety and compliance standards. Ability to make thoughtful technical trade‑offs and clearly communicate decisions across Hardware, Product, and leadership teams. Daanaa’s compensation package is based on a pay‑for‑performance philosophy that recognizes exceptional individual and team performance. The typical salary range for this position is from $120,000–$140,000 annually.
