Power Electronics Hardware, Design Engineer

Yesterday Shanghai, China

Position Summary

We are seeking a innovative Power Electronics Hardware Engineer to join our core R&D team. You will lead the main topology design, component selection, and validation of power electronic converters for new power systems, guiding the product until its successful mass production. You will be a key contributor to achieving high performance, high reliability, and cost competitiveness in our products.

Key Responsibilities

1. Main Circuit Design and Simulation:

  • Responsible for the design, evaluation, and innovation of main power conversion topologies (e.g., AC/DC, DC/DC, DC/AC stages).
  • Use simulation tools (e.g., PSPICE, LTspice, Saber, PLECS) for circuit simulation, including loop stability analysis, switching process analysis, and loss analysis, providing a theoretical basis for designs.
  • Lead the design, calculation, and technical liaison with suppliers for key magnetic components (e.g., transformers, inductors).

2. Component Selection, Validation, and Lifespan Analysis:
  • Responsible for the selection, evaluation, and testing of key components such as power semiconductors (IGBT, SiC MOSFET, GaN HEMT), capacitors, and magnetic components.
  • Develop component validation test plans, and perform in-depth analysis of device characteristics, reliability, and potential failure modes.
  • Conduct board-level power consumption and thermal analysis, collaborating with Structural/Thermal engineers to ensure system thermal design meets targets.

3. Board Design and Debugging:
  • Lead or deeply participate in schematic design, and define PCB layout rules (especially for high-voltage, high-current, and sensitive signal sections).
  • Guide Layout engineers to complete PCB design, ensuring it meets safety, EMC, thermal, and manufacturability requirements.
  • Independently perform hardware board-level debugging, locate and resolve hardware issues, and conduct comprehensive validation of prototype performance and reliability.

4. Safety & EMC Design and Compliance:
  • Strictly implement safety standards (e.g., UL 1741, IEC 62109) in hardware design, ensuring compliance with requirements like creepage and clearance distances.
  • Consider EMC from the design source, formulate and implement EMC design schemes, and lead pre-compliance testing and troubleshooting/rectification during formal certification tests.

5. Test Validation and Production Transfer Support:
  • Develop detailed hardware test plans, and execute design verification, system verification, and reliability testing.
  • Analyze test data, write test reports, and be responsible for the completeness and accuracy of hardware design documentation.
  • Support New Product Introduction (NPI), resolve hardware technical issues during pilot and mass production, and drive product design optimization and cost control.
