We are committed to creating quality products that are safe, precise, and clean for the industries we serve. We are seeking an experienced Hardware Engineer to design and develop advanced power supply systems and related power electronics products for commercial, industrial, research, and military applications. The ideal candidate will be hands‑on, detail‑oriented, and capable of managing the entire product development lifecycle, from concept through design, testing, and production. Key Responsibilities Design, simulate and test AC/DC, AC/AC, and DC/DC power converters, electronic loads and other power electronic systems in the 100 W to 300 kW range and 3 V to 10 kV voltage range. Develop and implement control loops and regulation strategies using both analog and digital control (DSP/MCU-based). Design unipolar, bipolar, and bidirectional (4‑quadrant) power stages using linear and switching topologies. Power Supply Design & Development: Design and develop electronics circuits including Design Analysis, Schematic Capture and PCB design. Research, develop, design, direct fabrication and testing of power supplies, special assemblies and loads. Benchmark Breadboard & Testing: Perform benchmark on similar designs, build and troubleshoot breadboard concept and prototype. Record, analyze, and interpret test data, making necessary product modifications and conducting retests. Design Validation & Testing: Generate test plan and fixture. Produce test procedures and help with providing specifications for design and validation/verification reports. Collaboration & Innovation: Collaborate with firmware and embedded engineers to drive innovation for analog electrical design integrated DSP/MCU digital control systems. SMPS and latest materials innovation (Sic, Gan) in SMPS/PS. Technology Roadmap Contribution: Create Analog electrical design solutions and technical support to a variety of novel and complex projects throughout life cycle stages. Cross‑Functional Collaboration: Work closely with cross‑functional teams to define the best power supply topology, resolve technical issues that arise in the supply chain. Design Documentation: Prepare detailed design documentation, including schematics, BOMs, and test procedures, writing reports, give design review preparation and presentations. Compliance & Standards: Ensure designs comply with relevant safety and regulatory standards (e.g., UL, CE, ISO), EMI/EMC or Mil‑Std requirement. Qualifications Education: Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering or a related field. Experience: Minimum of 5 years of experience in power electronics design and validation. Technical Skills Proficiency in designing analog circuits and familiarity with digital electronics applied to power supplies control, hot‑swap circuitry, and PDN design. Experience with low voltage and high current power subsystems using DSP (e.g., MCU, SoC, ASIC, FPGA). Thorough understanding of power conversion principles (rectification, inversion, regulation, etc.) and basic converter topologies (buck, boost, flyback, etc.) Demonstrated experience designing power electronics or power supply design and its associated topologies preferred. Knowledge of operational, instrumentation and power amplifiers. Hands‑on experience (design verification, troubleshooting and bench work) The position requires technical skills, interpersonal skills, and personal initiative, ability to multitask, energy and enthusiasm, passion for analog electronics. Tools & Simulation Familiarity with schematic and PCB CAD tools (e.g., Altium, Cadence). Experience with simulation tools such as SIMPLIS, SIMULINK, ANSYS SIWave, Multisim, SPICE or equivalent. Knowledge of control theory, loop compensation, and magnetics design. Problem‑Solving Strong analytical skills to analyze and resolve power delivery‑related hardware issues. Preferred Qualifications Advanced Degree: Master’s or Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering with an emphasis in power electronics. Industry Experience: 7+ years in power delivery validation and design. Interface Expertise: Experience with power management interfaces (e.g., PMBus, I2C, SPI, GPIB, LXI). Architecture Familiarity: Familiarity with major power supplies architectures AC/DC linear, switch‑mode, AC/AC power conversion, power amplifier classes AB, B, D, G and battery‑based DC/DC. Automation Skills: Proficiency in using C, C++, Python for testing and automation/script development, DSP code programming. NPI Experience: Experience with New Product Introduction (NPI) hardware design and deployment cycle. This position requires on‑site presence.
