• Competitive Base Salary!
• Strong Benefits package!
• Flexible Work Schedules!
• Accelerated Career Growth!

Combine people leadership with strong subject‑matter expertise in power electronics, including power stage architecture, analog controls, magnetics, thermal design, and EMI/EMC performance. You will lead the electrical engineering function, oversee PCB engineering, and provide organizational management for the mechanical engineering team, which operates with a high degree of independence. You will partner closely with firmware, test, manufacturing, quality, and applications teams to deliver robust products that meet efficiency, thermal, cost, schedule, and reliability targets.

• Lead and develop the electrical engineering team, with oversight of PCB engineering and organizational management responsibility for the mechanical engineering team.
• Set technical direction for power electronics architecture, design methods, and hardware platforms, aligning execution with company priorities, product roadmaps, and business goals.
• Architect and review power stages for servo drives and AC/DC conversion topologies, including component selection, derating, efficiency, thermal performance, and reliability.
• Guide design of gate drive circuits, sensing (current/voltage), protection, and analog front‑end conditioning for accurate control and safe operation.
• Oversee development and tuning of analog control loops and filters for power conversion and servo amplifier functions; ensure stability across operating conditions.
• Drive differential and common‑mode filtering strategies to meet EMI/EMC goals, and lead collaboration on grounding, shielding, layout, and packaging constraints.
• Oversee auxiliary and bias power supply design (isolated/non‑isolated) supporting both power and control domains.
• Establish expectations for loss, thermal, and derating analysis; drive cooling requirements and verify design margin through test.
• Lead design reviews, risk assessments, sustaining engineering decisions, and design standards to improve product quality, manufacturability, and development consistency.
• Perform trade studies and provide analytical guidance for internal and external stakeholders on cost, performance, risk, and schedule impacts.
• Own staffing, prioritization, and execution across the electrical and PCB engineering functions, while coordinating management oversight of the mechanical engineering team.
• Partner with manufacturing and applications engineering to support bring‑up, debug, root‑cause analysis, and customer escalations as needed.

• Minimum 10 years of electrical engineering and power electronics design experience (15+ years preferred), including industrial motor drives and/or power conversion products, with prior technical leadership or people management experience.
• Strong background in analog closed‑loop control design (stability analysis, compensation, filtering) for industrial power supplies and motor drives.
• Experience with mixed‑signal power electronics up to ~800 V and ~500 A, including protection, sensing, and safe operating area considerations.
• Hands‑on design of linear and switching power supplies (on‑board and offline; isolated and non‑isolated) and associated magnetics/components.
• Proficiency with analysis and simulation tools such as SPICE and at least one of MATLAB/Simulink or Mathcad to model power circuits and control loops.
• Ability to lead electrical and PCB hardware development, including design reviews, cross‑functional coordination, and execution, while providing organizational oversight for the mechanical engineering team.
• Ability to lead PCB layout constraints and reviews for high power density and low EMI…
