Job Description

Job Description – Senior Power Electronics Design (P4)

Role overview

Lead the end-to-end development and integration of advanced power electronic systems for renewable energy, and industrial automation. system architecture, cross-functional collaboration, and adherence to global safety and performance standards. Resolve complex system-level challenges - including thermal, EMI/EMC, and functional safety - while mentoring engineering teams and fostering a culture of innovation, quality, and continuous improvement throughout the product lifecycle.

Key Responsibilities

Development and integration of power electronic systems - including AC-DC, DC-AC, and DC-DC converters, inverters, renewable energy platforms, and industrial converters.

Work on electrical engineering lifecycle: Requirements Architecture Detailed Design Prototype Validation Certification Production support

Define system architecture, topology, requirements, and interface specifications for industrial power converters, charging platforms, high-voltage drivetrain systems.

Guiding designs from concept to mass production.

Collaborate cross-functionally across hardware, software, mechanical, integration, testing, production, supply chain and project management teams to ensure seamless product development and successful delivery within time.

Ensure compliance with relevant international safety and performance standards.

Troubleshoot and resolve complex system issues related to system behaviour, thermal management, electromagnetic compatibility/interference (EMC/EMI), and power quality.

Lead detailed design reviews and ensure comprehensive validation and verification coverage across system interfaces and critical performance metrics, including hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing where applicable and safety assessments.

Ensure the product meets quality, cost and timeline requirements.

Oversee the creation and maintenance of detailed technical documentation, including schematics, Bills of Materials (BOM), specifications, test protocols, validation reports, and production drawings.

Provide mentorship to junior engineers while fostering a culture of knowledge sharing and driving continuous improvement in engineering processes and best practices.
