Senior Design Engineer - Power Electronics

Key Responsibilities

• Design and develop power conversion circuits and modules (AC-DC, DC-DC, DC-AC converters, inverters, and protection circuits) based on system-level specifications and requirements.
• Perform detailed schematic capture, PCB layout guidance, and component selection for high-efficiency power circuits.
• Perform simulation, analysis, and optimization of power stages, switching topologies, thermal performance, and EMI/EMC characteristics using tools such as LTspice, PLECS, and MATLAB/Simulink and hardware testing to validate designs.
• Support EMI/EMC mitigation, thermal management, and protection strategy implementation.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams (firmware, mechanical, testing, manufacturing) to ensure seamless integration and validation of designs.
• Support prototype bring-up, lab testing, and power bench measurements while driving root cause analysis and iterative debugging during validation, field trials, and production ramp-u
• "Generate and maintain comprehensive technical documentationincluding schematics, BOMs, layout files, design reports, validation records, and change logs—to ensure traceability and design integrity throughout the development lifecycle
• Support and participate in design reviews, DFMEA/DFM activities, and failure analysis investigations, contributing to the refinement of design standards and continuous improvement of engineering practices
• Adhere to relevant industry standards (IEC, UL, ISO 26262, IS,OCPP+) and assist in preparing documentation for compliance and certification.
• Ownership of design deliverables with strong communication skills, fosters effective collaboration across multidisciplinary teams, and maintains a commitment to continuous learning and engineering excellence.

Required Qualifications & Experience
