Job
Description
As a Power Electronics Engineer, you will be responsible for designing, developing, and testing power electronic systems and components used in railway applications. You will work closely with cross-functional teams to deliver innovative solutions that meet the demanding requirements of the railway industry. Your role will involve both theoretical analysis and practical implementation, with a focus on reliability, efficiency, and safety. Key Responsibilities: Design and simulate circuits & topologies using design tools such as MATLAB, PSPICE, and ANSYS. Essential to have hands on experience in three phase circuit topologies e.g. Inverters, rectifiers and power supply circuits, DC-DC Converters e.g. buck, fly back. Select & Carry out device characterization of power modules (Si IGBT/MOSFET/SiC/Diode). Estimate power losses and predict thermal stress for various semiconductors using internal design tools or multi-physics simulation tools. Design magnetic (Transformers, Inductors) for various power converter topologies using tools like MATHCAD & PSPICE and realize design samples through vendor interactions. Design, simulate & realize analog/digital circuit (Operational amplifiers, logic gates etc.) perform various types of analyses and select appropriate components considering thermal & safety aspects. Guide team on carrying out EMC Tests as per relevant standards, debug and resolve EMI/EMC issues. Support design verification & product validation test activities as per applicable IEC/UL Standards. Review & provide guidance to the younger team members in design, prototyping, realizing and testing of the product. Work with a multi-disciplinary development team comprising of mechanical, embedded electronics, supply chain and product owners to deliver products. Lead activities like DFMEA and adhere Danfoss processes for product development. Work closely with supply chain to create test instruction for PCBAs & Units for production process control. Work with manufacturing & global suppliers to test & qualify components and assemblies during prototype development and resolve issues as needed. Qualifications: Bachelors or Masters degree in Electrical Engineering, Power Electronics, or a related field. Minimum of 10 years of experience in power electronics design and development, preferably in the railway or transportation sector. Hands-on experience with power converters, inverters, and motor drives. Skills: Proficiency in simulation tools (e.g., MATLAB/Simulink, PSpice, MATHCAD). Strong understanding of electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and thermal management. Knowledge of railway standards and regulations is a plus. Excellent problem-solving skills and attention to detail. Strong communication skills and ability to work effectively in a team environment.
