As a Senior Power Electronics Engineer, you will own the electrical design of high-current solid-state switching platforms that power mission-critical environments. Your work will directly influence the reliability, protection strategy, and performance of systems where failure is not an option. You will lead detailed schematic design for SCR/thyristor-based switching architectures, shaping protection strategies, fault response behavior, and thermal performance at the system level.

This role blends deep technical expertise with cross‑functional leadership, partnering with firmware, mechanical, manufacturing, and compliance teams to bring robust, UL‑certified power platforms to market.

• Contributing to system-level architecture and electrical subsystem definition for high-current solid-state switching equipment
• Owning detailed power and control schematic design for SCR/thyristor-based switching platforms
• Designing and optimizing critical circuits including:
• Isolated gate drive and firing circuits
• Snubber networks and dv/dt protection
• Fault commutation and semiconductor protection mechanisms
• Performing thermal analysis and Safe Operating Area (SOA) evaluations for high-power semiconductor modules
• Conducting short-circuit, overload, fault current, and protection coordination studies
• Reviewing PCB layouts for high-current routing, creepage/clearance compliance, isolation integrity, and EMC performance
• Supporting high-current validation and lab testing activities (up to 1600A)
• Participating in cross-functional design reviews and providing technical guidance to firmware, mechanical, and manufacturing teams
• Supporting compliance-driven development and UL certification efforts for low-voltage power electronics products

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering (Master’s preferred)
• 7+ years of hands‑on experience in industrial power electronics design
• Deep expertise in SCR/thyristor-based solid-state switching systems
• Experience developing industrial power electronics equipment such as inverters, converters, or static switching systems
• Familiarity with UL requirements and NEC guidelines for low-voltage power equipment
• Proficiency with schematic design tools such as Altium Designer or OrCAD
• Experience reviewing PCB layouts in high-power applications
• Working knowledge of EMC/EMI mitigation techniques in power electronics

• Experience supporting products through UL certification or compliance testing
• Familiarity with simulation tools such as MATLAB/Simulink, PLECS, or LTspice
• Background in redundant or high-reliability power architectures
• Experience with FPGA/DSP-based control platforms for power switching applications

• Safety:
  Proactively fosters a culture of safety in high-power development and testing environments
• Inclusion:
  Appreciates and respects individuals from diverse backgrounds, identities, and values
• Speed:
  Operates with urgency in mission-critical product development timelines
• Innovation:
  Continuously improves system robustness, protection strategies, and design efficiency
• Judgment:
  Exercises strong technical decision-making in high-risk, high-current design scenarios
• Accountability:
  Owns design integrity, validation outcomes, and product reliability
• Competitive salary and performance bonus
• Paid time off
• 401(k) retirement plan with company match
• Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance
• Collaborative, high-performance workplace
