- Create/develop electrical schematics, BOM, assembly drawings, and other design documentation using industry-standard CAD tools and develop component and product specifications
- Perform circuit simulation and analysis to verify performance, efficiency, reliability, and safety
- Define power architecture and system-level electrical requirements
- Complete/support PCB layout activities
- Build, debug, and validate prototypes
- Develop and execute design verification plans.
- Support regulatory certification activities including UL, IEC, CSA, CE, and other applicable standards (UL/IEC 60730, et al)
- Conduct root cause analysis and implement corrective actions for design-related issues.
- Support new product introduction (NPI) and production launch activities
- Work closely with manufacturing teams to resolve production and quality issues.
- Evaluate component obsolescence and identify alternative solutions
- Participate in design reviews, failure analysis investigations, and continuous improvement initiatives
- Collaborate with software, mechanical, and project leadership throughout product lifecycle.
- Interface with suppliers and customers on technical matters
- Mentor junior engineers and provide technical leadership in power electronics design
Required Qualifications
