Manager, Power Electronics Engineering

Description

We are seeking a Manager of Power Electronics Engineering to lead a team of 10–15 electrical engineers developing next‑generation inverter systems for grid applications.

This role combines technical leadership with team management
. You will be responsible not only for guiding engineers, but for driving system‑level design decisions and ensuring that our products perform reliably in the field.

You will own the development of power converter platforms and their integration into multi‑megawatt systems (~5 MW scale), working across hardware, controls, and system integration disciplines.

• Lead and develop a team of 10–15 electrical engineers working on power converter design and integration
• Drive the design and architecture of grid‑connected inverter systems at the multi‑megawatt scale
• Ensure successful integration of inverter platforms into larger systems (BESS, solar plants, data centers)
• Provide technical leadership in power electronics, including converter design, PCB implementation, controls, protection, and system‑level electrical integration (fusing, cabling, grounding, and interconnects)
• Collaborate cross‑functionally with firmware, mechanical, manufacturing, and field engineering teams
• Guide engineering tradeoffs with a focus on performance, reliability, cost, and manufacturability
• Lead design reviews, verification & validation efforts (DVT), and product release processes, ensuring designs are thoroughly tested, meet requirements, and perform reliably under real‑world operating conditions
• Mentor engineers and elevate the technical capabilities of the team

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering (PhD a plus)
• 8+ years of experience in power electronics or related field
• 3+ years of experience leading engineering teams or technical groups
• Strong expertise in:
  • Power converter design (DC/AC, DC/DC, inverter systems)
  • Medium‑voltage and high‑power applications
  • Grid‑connected systems and standards
  • PCB design and layout considerations for high‑power/high‑frequency systems
  • Balance‑of‑system design including protection, cabling, grounding, and interconnects
• Experience designing or integrating megawatt‑scale power systems
• Experience leading or overseeing design validation testing (DVT), system test plans, and failure/root‑cause analysis
• Solid understanding of system‑level design, including controls, thermal, and protection considerations
• Experience with applications such as energy storage, solar PV, or grid infrastructure
• Strong analytical and problem‑solving skills with a hands‑on engineering mindset
• Ability to communicate clearly and work effectively across disciplines

• 401(k) with company matching
• Medical, dental, and vision insurance
• Disability and life insurance
• Flexible Spending Account (FSA)
• Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
• Paid Time Off (PTO)
• Tuition reimbursement
