  4. Collaborate on control strategies for power converters and inverters.
  5. Ensure design compliance with IEC61508, ISO26262, CISPR25.
  6. Manage cross-functional, multi-person projects and build key customer relationships.
  7. Drive new technical capabilities, project proposals, and business development.

Essential Requirements:
  1. Extensive experience in power electronics and magnetics technology (e.g., inverters, OBC, DC/DC, AC/DC) across sectors like automotive, aerospace, off-highway, commercial vehicle, defense, clean energy, or marine.
  2. Expertise in digital and mixed-signal control and interface circuits.
  3. Experience in noise attenuation and EMC design.
  4. Strong experience in simulation environments for power electronic and magnetic systems.
  5. Ability to lead development projects and build technical relationships with customers.
  6. Degree or equivalent in a relevant engineering discipline.

Desirable Skills:
  1. Familiarity with digital motor control schemes (e.g., IPM, SPM, ASM, SR) and control strategies (FOC, field-weakening, harmonic current injection, NVH, fault protection).
  2. Proven experience in power electronics hardware development in lab, rig, and final sector environments.
  3. Experience in PCB layout, mechanical system design, and manufacturing power electronics systems.
  4. Expertise in fluid systems, thermal simulation, and management in power electronics systems.
  5. Training in the safe use of high-power, high-voltage test equipment.

This role offers the opportunity to work in a dynamic, cutting-edge field with a global leader in electrified propulsion systems. If you meet the requirements and are ready for a challenging and rewarding role, we'd love to hear from you.
