Introduction

Saab UK is part of Scandinavia's largest defence company, bringing together the best of Swedish and British innovation. Saab offers world-leading solutions and services in defence, aviation, space, and civil security to keep people and society safe. Our UK presence has been growing at pace, meaning we can offer a wide range of opportunities for personal fulfilment and career growth.

  • General knowledge of power switching devices - MOSFETs, Si-IGBT (Wide-Bandgap desired)
  • Experience with the design and optimisation of gate-drive circuitry
  • High Frequency Transformer and Magnetics design
  • A good understanding of thermal management techniques for through-hole and surface mount devices
  • The ability to use modelling and simulation to facilitate design and prototyping
  • Good knowledge in both digital and analogue design concepts
  • Design for LVD/EMC Compliance
  • Development of requirements specifications and test procedures
  • System level integration and testing
  • Experience of filter design and implementation

Desirables:

  • High Voltage Experience up to 5kV
  • Thermal modelling experience
  • Motor design and control (BLDC, PMSM, Induction, Axial/Radial Flux)
  • Embedded, FPGA, CPLD
  • Serial Comms Protocol: Ethernet, SPI, I2C, CAN, CAN-FD

General accountabilities and responsibilities:

  • To use personal judgement and initiative to develop effective and constructive solutions to challenges and obstacles in day to day activities and procedures within the specified role.
  • To maintain personal ability in, and appropriate use of, all relevant IT (Information & Technology) and other systems required to adequately perform the role.
  • To act ethically, with integrity and in the best interest of the business at all times.
  • To maintain a professional and supportive relationship with team members and other departments in order to deliver business and delivery objectives or deadlines.
  • To carry out any other duties as detailed by your Supervisor or Manager from time to time.
  • To keep good time management to minimise any wasted time and maximise productivity and effectiveness.
