We're looking for a Power Electronics Engineer focused on the design and integration of power electronics used in high-performance fan, compressor, and turbomachinery development who can own performance, drive power-density improvements, and shape next-generation system architectures.
What You'll Do- Design, simulate and analyze power electronic systems and drive systems.
- Develop the controls architecture, identify sensor needs and software requirements of power conversion devices.
- Analyze systems with respect to electrical, harmonic, and thermal behavior.
- Support prototype fabrication, instrumentation, testing, and qualification activities.
- Support system integration of power electronics with high performance machines. Collaborate with mechanical, thermal, controls, and electrical engineers to ensure performance aligns with system-level requirements.
What You'll BringRequired- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering.
- 5+ years of engineering experience designing power electronics hardware, preferably in Aerospace & Defense Industry.
- Experience with high power inverter and gate drive circuitry for motor drives.
- Experience designing for high-voltage (270 VDC - 600 VDC) environments.
- Proficiency with simulation tools and basic programming skills in C and MATLAB.
- Strong EE fundamentals and circuit design experience in power electronics, analog and digital circuits with FPGA-based and/or microcontroller-based embedded systems.
- Ability to move from concept through hardware validation.
- Clear written and verbal communication skills.
- U.S. Citizen (due to program requirements).
Preferred- Experience in EMC design and validation.
- Experience with PMAC and BLDC motor drives.
- Experenice with FOC sensor and sensorless control.
- Familiarity with aerospace standards: MIL-STD-704, MIL-STD-461, DO-160.
- Familiarity with AS9100D development environments and structured design reviews
Tools You'll UseAltium Designer, MATLAB & Simulink, SPICE-based tools, PLM/PDM systems, ERP/MRP (Deltek Costpoint or similar), MS Office/Teams/SharePoint.
Work Environment & EligibilityOffice and laboratory environment with test facility exposure; ability to occasionally lift up to ~25 lbs; travel ~10-20% for customer meetings or test support.
