About The Position: Senior Hardware Design Engineer – Design & Development Lead
Statcon Electronics India Limited is seeking a highly experienced and technically strong Hardware Design Engineer to lead the Design & Development function for advanced power electronics systems. The ideal candidate will possess 10+ years of experience in Power Electronics hardware design, preferably from IITs/NITs/BITS and with exposure to MNC work culture. This leadership role involves complete ownership of analog and digital hardware design, SMPS topologies, magnetics, and embedded circuit integration for mission-critical applications in power conversion.Note: This is a hands-on engineering leadership role — we expect the leader to actively contribute to technical development and not just manage teams.

Key Responsibilities:

• Lead the hardware design and development for high-performance power electronics systems, including DC-DC converters, UPS, 3-phase chargers, and resonant converters (LLC).
• Design and develop advanced SMPS topologies with deep understanding of Boost, Flyback, PFC, Half/Full Bridge, and Resonant architectures.
• Design, simulate, and validate analog and digital circuits, ensuring signal integrity, stability, and robustness.
• Collaborate with firmware and mechanical teams for embedded system integration and product optimization.
• Design and specify magnetic components (transformers, inductors) for high-efficiency power conversion.
• Provide guidance to PCB designers, ensuring proper layout for thermal management, EMC compliance, and electrical safety.
• Conduct hardware debugging, root cause analysis, failure analysis, and design improvements for reliability and manufacturability.
• Interface with customers to translate specifications into actionable product designs and ensure end-to-end delivery.
• Ensure detailed documentation, BOMs, design files, test reports, and compliance with industry standards (CE, IEC, etc.).
• Mentor junior engineers and contribute to a culture of innovation, efficiency, and knowledge sharing.

Qualifications & Skills:

• B.Tech in Electrical / Electronics / Power Electronics from IIT/NIT/BITS (IITs strongly preferred).
• Minimum 10 years of hands-on experience in hardware design for power electronics systems.
• Experience working in or with Multinational Companies (MNCs) and global work environments.
• Expertise in analog and digital circuit design, simulation tools (LTspice, PSpice, MATLAB/Simulink).
• In-depth knowledge of SMPS, power topologies, and magnetic design.
• Strong understanding of embedded circuit integration and microcontroller hardware requirements.
• Experience in PCB design review, thermal design, EMI/EMC design techniques.
• Familiarity with hardware testing equipment (oscilloscopes, power analyzers, logic analyzers).
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office, documentation tools, and reporting practices.

Preferred Skills:

• Experience in Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) and Design for Manufacturability (DFM).
• Knowledge of embedded software basics, allowing close collaboration with firmware teams.
• Familiarity with product certifications and regulatory compliance.
• Strong communication, presentation, and cross-functional leadership skills.
• Ability to manage multiple projects with a high attention to detail and innovation mindset.

What We Offer:

• Leadership role in cutting-edge power electronics development.
• Competitive salary and performance incentives.
• Opportunities for growth and innovation in a dynamic work environment.
• Collaboration with national and international clients and teams.
