Senior Power Electronics Engineer

gies and component selection, providing expert technical consulting to solve challenging problems and mentoring.

It will be needed a good ability to communicate complicated technologies in a clear and concise way to a variety of different audiences (business leaders, technical colleagues and lay people).

What you'll do:

• Design and build hardware of power electronics converters for use in Eaton products.
• End to end ownership of hardware - from specification to design, prototype reliability validation and high-volume manufacturing.
• Collaborate with electronics, mechanical, and firmware engineering teams to design, validate and manufacture power converters.
• Collaborate on architecture and modeling of existing and new power converter topologies that achieve better performance.
• Report periodically to the Project Manager / Team Manager
• Engage in the Eaton Quality Process

Qualifications:

• Bachelors degree in Electrical Engineering, or equivalent; Masters or PhD preferred.

• 10+ years of relevant hands-on hardware experience in power converter design (AC/DC, DC/DC & DC/AC)

• Experience with high voltage power semiconductor selection (Si/SiC/GaN MOSFET's, Diodes), gate drive and protection circuit design.

• Experience with UL and/or CE electrical safety requirements and certification, and EMC requirements relevant to the design of power converters.

• Experience with design of analog/digital circuits and micro-processors.

• Experience in supervision of PCB layout for minimal stray inductance and capacitance, placement strategies for better manufacturability, power/signal plane definition and EMC optimization.

• Experience in modeling power converters and power systems using simulation tools (example: MATLAB/Simulink, PLECS, Simplorer, PSIM and/or PSCAD)

Skills:

• Excellent understanding of power electronics topologies (AC/DC, DC/DC & DC/AC).
• Excellent understanding of switching waveforms, semi-conductor losses and experience with loss modeling.
• Excellent understanding of the theory and application of magnetics (inductors, transformers) and capacitors (Electrolytic, film and Ceramic) used for power conversion.
• Familiar with schematic capture and power converter circuit simulation tools.
• Proficiency with basic EE tools (Oscilloscopes, Network analyzers, Signal Generators etc.).
• Understanding of how thermal management affects the overall performance of the system, appreciation for the trade-offs necessary to achieve designs that meet performance requirements and cost objective solutions.
• Creativity for technical solution design
• Ability to expand and deepen area of expertise
• Autonomous, have ease in learning, good teammate, communication and problem-solving skills.

What we offer:

• Challenging projects in a dynamic, collaborative team

• Opportunities for internal promotion

• Long-term investment in employee growth through Eaton University

• Commitment to reliability, safety, efficiency, and sustainability

• We make your wellbeing matter - We put your health and safety first. Wellness at Eaton is more than a program, it's about changing the environment by offering the right tools to help empower employees to make that happen
