  • Passive component design and optimization in power electronics systems
  • EMC and Lightning design, analysis, and testing for low voltage and high voltage electronic systems
  • Lead new designs from conception into production while working with a multidisciplinary team
  • Start to finish ownership of hardware – from specification to design, prototype, reliability validation and manufacturing
  • Requirements capture, topology trade-study and performance modeling
  • Schematic, layout and PCB assembly design and review
  • Design and carry out prototype verification tests for proof of concept
  • Analyze test data and reports to verify functional and performance specifications
  • Troubleshoot and execute root cause analysis on prototype and production designs

Requirements:

  • Electrical Engineering Degree or equivalent experience
  • 8+ years of relevant electrical system and circuit board design experience
  • Sound knowledge and hands-on experience in traditional and modern power electronic technologies including (not limited to): Inverter technology for variable speed motor drive (MOSFET, rectifiers and gate driver PWM technologies)
  • Passive power devices, e.g. inductors, capacitors, resistors and transformers

  • Motor drive and power converters (AC-DC, DC-DC, DC-AC) control technologies
  • Motor control and commutation methods for various types of three phase motors
  • Microcontrollers and processors
  • Sensor technology and implementation
  • Gate drive design for wide bandgap devices (SiC and GaN)
  • Experience with 1-10kW inverters at 400V-1000V
  • Experience in using schematic capture and circuit simulation software (e.g. Altium Designer or Xpedition)
  • PCB layout experience
  • Experience performing circuit design analyses such as worst-case circuit analysis, fault analysis, and reliability analysis
  • Experience in design for test and design for high volume manufacture
  • Mastery of all types of lab instruments: oscilloscope, EMC analyzers etc.
  • Excellent organizational and communication skills

Nice to have:

  • Hands on experience with DO-160G testing and DO-254 development
