About Us
Eden is pioneering sustainable natural resource recovery by using electricity to enhance subsurface permeability. Our Electrical Reservoir Stimulation technology offers a precise, water-efficient alternative to traditional hydraulic fracturing, reducing environmental risks while maximizing resource extraction.
Backed by leading public and private institutions, we have raised ~$24M, including $14M in dilutive capital from industry leaders like Anglo American and Helmerich & Payne, along with climate-focused investors like Grantham Foundation. An additional $10M in non-dilutive funding has been secured, primarily through four DOE ARPA-E grants supporting our R&D in frontier industries.
Headquartered in Somerville, MA, with an office in Houston, TX, Eden's team of 20 experts specializes in geophysics, geochemistry, high-voltage engineering, and subsurface tool design. We are actively demonstrating our next- permeability enhancement technology across diverse geologies worldwide, collaborating with industry leaders in geothermal energy, geologic hydrogen, carbon storage, and mining to redefine resource recovery for a carbon-neutral future.
Looking ahead, we are preparing for surface and subsurface field tests in early-to-mid 2025, supported by our supportive technical partners.
About the Job
The Electrical Engineer will work in a laboratory environment with Eden’s Senior High Voltage Engineer and Edens interdisciplinary R&D team to design, build and optimize high voltage pulse power devices for electrical reservoir stimulation. Investigating the impact of electrical parameters will support the efforts relevant to the geothermal-, mining-, geological H2-, and CO2 sequestration industries. This role requires fundamental knowledge of electrical engineering principles, AC and DC circuit analysis, electrical measurement techniques, breadboarding, and soldering.
Tasks:
•Work closely with the Senior High Voltage Engineer to develop lab scale and field scale pulse power devices.
•Support the engineering team in the optimization of electrical stimulation parameters.
•Perform electrical stimulation experiments on both laboratory prepared and natural rock samples.
•Design and build low voltage control circuits for pulsed power devices.
•Design and build electrical noise suppression systems (Faraday’s cages, voltage suppression systems).
•Assist the geomechanics team in measurements of electrical properties of various mineral samples.
•Prepare and present project updates, technical presentations, and reports for team members.
Requirements
Minimum Qualifications:
•B.S. in Electrical Engineering or equivalent.
•Prior experience performing electrical measurements with oscilloscopes.
•Prior breadboarding and soldering experience.
•Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
•Strong communication and time management skills.
•Experience in fabrication is a bonus.
•Experience working with and building high voltage circuitry is a bonus (Marx Generators, Inductive adder circuits, pulse transformers).
•US or Green Card holder.
Qualifications:
•Mechanical fabrication experience (knows how to use hand tools and limited power tools like a hand drill, drill press etc.).
•High voltage experience (>1 kV) (Marx Generators, Cockcroft-Walton Generator, Inductive adder circuit, Tesla Coils).
•Experience with electrical properties of materials.
•Electrodynamic/electrostatic simulation experience.
Benefits
• Medical, dental, and vision insurance
• Vacation – Federal holidays off, Thanksgiving holidays, Christmas and New Year, 10 additional workdays per year (2-weeks) vacation time
• Sick days, bereavement time
• Bonuses based on the size/impact of contracts, patents, awards, etc.
