Senior Electrical Engineer

Job description

**ABOUT US** Aeris Technologies, Inc., a subsidiary of Project Canary, develops and commercializes advanced, laser-based gas analyzers for trace gas monitoring across environmental, industrial, laboratory, and field applications. Aeris instruments deliver high-precision, real-time measurements of greenhouse gases, atmospheric pollutants, and natural gas leak indicators, helping customers collect reliable data in fixed, mobile, handheld, and aerial configurations. As part of Project Canary, Aeris supports a broader climate technology platform that helps energy companies improve and report on their emissions footprint. Project Canary combines high-fidelity sensors, data from multiple technologies and sources, and proprietary analytics to deliver actionable insights that help operators stop leaks faster, reduce risk, streamline reporting, and differentiate their operations for key stakeholders. Aeris’s technology brings lab-grade gas sensing performance into the field, supporting applications in environmental monitoring, industrial safety, air quality, research, and emissions measurement. **ABOUT THE ROLE** The Senior Electrical Engineer will join the Engineering team at Aeris Technologies, based out of our office in Hayward, CA. This role will focus on the electrical design and development of our next generation of high-precision, ultra-sensitive trace gas analyzers. The ideal candidate will have experience designing electronics for laser-based gas spectroscopy systems, with a deep understanding of MIR/NIR lasers, optical detection chains, and the exceptional signal fidelity required for trace gas measurement. Working closely with cross-functional engineering teams, this person will own the electrical architecture from concept through production, helping drive new product development and continuous improvement of existing systems. We're looking for an engineer who enjoys solving difficult technical problems and is energized by building products that move from concept into production. The ideal candidate combines deep technical expertise with curiosity, collaboration, and a practical approach to engineering, helping turn complex optical systems into reliable products that customers depend on.
