• Abstract: We present exact solutions for the non-equilibrium steady states of a class of dissipative spinless fermionic systems with arbitrary Hamiltonian pairing terms, global charging energy interactions, and uniform single particle loss on every site. Our exact solution is found by generalizing the coherent quantum absorber technique to fermionic systems, and our result establishes the existence of hidden time-reversal symmetry in driven-dissipative fermionic models. The steady state exhibits a first order phase transition in the particle density, with the resulting jump discontinuity in density persisting even for finite dissipation rates. A mean-field description of the model exhibits a bistable regime that encompasses the first-order transition line yet which fails to accurately predict its precise location via a Maxwell construction. We also show that the model's hidden time-reversal symmetry results in an Onsager symmetry of certain two-time correlation functions.
