Power Electronics Engineer

Duration: Contract - 6 months

We are seeking a Senior Power Electronics Engineer to join our dynamic team. The ideal candidate will have strong experience in high-reliability power electronics design, including DC-DC converters, motor control, and power switching and a proven ability to deliver reliable, error-free designs for mission-critical aerospace and defense applications
.

• Architect and design high-reliability power electronics, including DC-DC converters, inverters, motor drives, and battery-management subsystems.
• Perform circuit design, simulation, component selection, schematic capture, and guide PCB layout with thermal and EMI/EMC considerations.
• Lead hardware bring-up, integration, debug, verification, and qualification activities.
• Develop and review specifications, conduct design reviews, and create test plans and verification documentation.
• Solve complex technical issues using structured root-cause analysis.
• Provide technical mentorship and design guidance to less experienced engineers.
• Collaborate with systems, software, mechanical, manufacturing, supply chain, and quality teams throughout the product lifecycle.
• Ensure designs meet aerospace and defense reliability, environmental, and performance requirements.

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or related discipline.
• 8+ years designing power electronics for aerospace, defense, industrial, or other high-reliability applications.
• Strong experience designing DC-DC power converters or related power conversion circuits.
• Proficiency with schematic capture and PCB design tools such as Cadence Allegro or Altium.
• Experience with simulation tools such as SPICE, MATLAB/Simulink, or Mathcad.
• Strong understanding of power semiconductor devices. MOSFET experience required; IGBT, SiC, and GaN are beneficial.
• Experience supporting hardware from architecture through qualification and production.
• Strong communication, collaboration, and technical leadership skills.

• Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Power Electronics, or related field.
• Experience developing electronics for harsh-environment or space applications.
• Experience with radiation-tolerant or radiation-hardened electronics.
• Experience with motor control, reliability analysis (FMEA/MTBF), or system integration.
• Experience mentoring engineers and leading technical design reviews.
