At NewOrbit Space, our mission is to engineer the lowest orbiting satellites on Earth to rapidly advance global connectivity and insight. We are currently building satellites that can operate at an altitude of just 200 km - one-third that of conventional satellites. Thanks to our propulsion system AURA, we can compensate for the atmospheric drag at ultra-low altitudes. We are seeking an experienced Wireless Power Electronics Engineer to help us design, build and test resonant inverters for our satellite propulsion system AURA-X. You should be capable of developing and taking ownership of the full (end-to-end) development cycle of power electronics, ensuring the success of our upcoming satellite launch.
Job Responsibility:
Design and prototype advanced power electronics circuits and PCB layouts
Develop DC-DC and DC-AC converters, power conditioners, and other power supplies for inductively coupled plasma sources
Conduct modelling, control design, and stability analysis for power electronic converters
Test and validate power converters against simulations, considering EMI/EMC, reliability, and efficiency
Collaborate with a multidisciplinary team to integrate power electronics into various satellite subsystems
Requirements:
Advanced degree in Electrical Engineering, Power Electronics, or a related field
At least 3 years of experience in power electronics design (including academic research, e.g., PhD)
Strong fundamental knowledge of analogue and digital circuits
Proficiency in tools such as CST/Maxwell/COMSOL, LTSpice, TINA-TI, MATLAB/Simulink
Experience with multiple converter topologies (DC/DC, class E and class D inverters)
EMI/EMC compliance, control theory, and closed-loop feedback systems
Control architectures, algorithms, and power control for converters and drives
Reliability analysis, including stress analysis and FMECA (Failure Modes, Effects, and Criticality Analysis)
Nice to have:
Power electronics for space applications
High-voltage power electronics (up to 5kV)
Thermal modelling and electro-magnetics (design, test, and simulation)
Development of power electronics for wireless power transfer systems, radio frequency generators, etc.
