Sr. Power Electronics Engineer

1AP is looking for a Senior Power Electronics Engineer to lead the design and development of advanced power conversion systems from concept to production

The ideal candidate will have a strong background in power conversion topologies, digital control implementation, and product development, along with a proven ability to drive projects from initial design through validation and deployment. This is an opportunity to work in a fast-paced environment where innovation and problem-solving are at the core of what we do.

• Leadpower electronics design in support of new product development.
• Work effectively with cross-functional teams to resolve early (architectural) and late (lab,test& validation) challenges on fast timelines.
• Design and implement control algorithms for DC/DC,AC/DCand DC/AC conversion circuitry
• Develop off-line and on-line simulation models used for early algorithm validation
• Collaborate with firmware engineers for control algorithm implementation
• Collaborate with other engineers for control and hardware validation on hardware prototypes
• Some travel is expected.
• Other duties as needed.

• Master of Science (MS) degree in Electrical Engineering from an accredited university.
• Minimum of 7 years of work experience inpower electronicsdesign, analysis,test, and troubleshooting.
• Minimum of 3 years of industry work experience as power electronics technical lead.
• Experience in powertopologies such as LLC, DAB, multi-levelconverters including PFC (single phase and three phase) and associated soft switching techniques.
• Experience in modelling power converter designs using simulation tools such as PSIM,Matlaband Spice.
• Experience in implementing digital control designs in microcontrollers, DSPs and/or FPGAs.
• Strong experience in advanced modulation strategies used for loss minimization, including those for soft-switching (ZVS/ZCS).
• Strong experience in feedback loopcontrollers’ design and their stability and performance optimization.
• Experience in planning and implementing HW and FW verification during product development, to ensure the design meets specifications and requirements.
• Expertise in power circuit analysis, such as worst-case circuit analysis, failure method effectiveness and criticality, and reliability.
• Extensive hands-on experience with lab instruments such as oscilloscopes, RLC analyzers, impedance analyzers, spectrum analyzers, electronic (AC/DC) loads, and signal/power generators.
• Ability to analyze and optimize circuits and designs for cost.
• Demonstrated self-starter with the ability to handle multiple tasks simultaneously in a fast-paced global design and manufacturing environment.
• Demonstrated the ability to transition from theoretical to implementation-based thinking.
• Experience studying emerging technologies and applying them in innovative ways.
• Very strong analytical skills and detail-oriented.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skillsto work in a fast paced environment.

• Extensive industry experience designing successfulpower electronicsproducts from concept through schematic, layout, manufacturing,test, and deployment as project leader.
• Experience with full product development process including EMI/EMCtesting, certification processes, failure analysis, etc.
• Experience working with x-functional teams: mechanical, software, and test.
• Knowledge of industry standards such as UL 1741, IEEE 1547 and NEC code for renewable energy is a plus.
