Full Job Description
We are looking for an experienced Power Electronics Engineer to help us design and test critical hardware to power our Humanoid. Responsibilities: - Develop conceptual power architectures and conduct trade studies to support key design decisions - Design and validate PCBAs for charging products, including both the power stages and the mixed-signal control boards - Support design reviews (schematics, layouts, etc) - Support system integration and hardware bring-up by contributing a hands-on, builder mentality to test execution and debugging Requirements: - Bachelor or graduate degree in Electrical Engineering or related field - 4+ years of industry experience, you have designed and shipped multiple products to production - Experience with grid-tied AC/DC (you must know how to design a PFC from scratch), DC/DC (Buck, Boost, Flyback, etc.), and resonant converters - Hands-on experience designing mixed-signal circuits and control boards. You should deeply understand MCUs, their peripherals, and how to implement them in hardware - Experience with high voltage applications, protection circuitry, and the common failure modes associated with power electronics designs - Experience sizing and designing discrete power electronics (controllers, gate drivers, MOSFETs, inductors, XFRMs, caps, sensing, etc) - Strong experience in EMI/EMC, filter design, and meeting safety/compliance standards - Strong hardware debugging skills. You know how to attack a board or system level problem, document it, and fix it quickly Bonus Qualifications: - Experience with Wireless Power Transfer (WPT) topologies and charging architectures - Experience with Altium - Experience with PCB layout, designing for power converters, and layout-level EMC mitigations - Experience simulating power electronic circuits - Experience working with embedded control systems and/or digital power control The US base salary range for this full-time position is between $150,000 - $250,000 annually. The pay offered for this position may vary based on several individual factors, including job-related knowledge, skills, and experience. The total compensation package may also include additional components/benefits depending on the specific role. This information will be shared if an employment offer is extended.
