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.
