Power Electronics Embedded Systems Engineer

Join this passionate team!

In the role of Power Electronics Embedded Systems Engineering, you will be an important part of the Company's R&D team, creating the controls and integrating them with power electronics for multi-kilowatt programmable DC power supplies. You’ll model advanced control algorithms in MATLAB/Simulink, translate them into ultra-reliable C firmware on TI C2000 MCUs, and validate everything on custom PCBs you help design and debug. From concept through production, you’ll collaborate closely with power-electronics, test, and manufacturing teams to deliver the next generation of high-performance power solutions. Given the complex nature of the products, there will be significant hands-on training and interaction with various Company teams.

Key Responsibilities:

• Building and refining closed-loop control models in MATLAB/Simulink and auto-generation of production-ready C code.
• Tuning digital compensators (PI/PID, state-space, predictive) for high-bandwidth control
• Writing, optimize, and document bare-metal C for TI C2000 and other 32-bit MCUs.
• Developing low-level drivers (ADC, PWM, timers, SPI, I²C, UART, RS-485, CAN, Ethernet) with deterministic execution and interrupt-safe design.
• Implementing high-resolution PWM strategies for hard-switched.
• Interfacing firmware with gate-driver, current-sense, voltage-sense, and isolation circuitry
• Characterizing converter efficiency, thermal performance, and dynamic response; iterate based on oscilloscope/logic-analyzer captures.
• Designing 2- to 4-layer PCBs in Altium for mixed-signal and high-voltage layouts
• Bring-up and debug prototypes with oscilloscopes, isolated differential probes, power analyzers, and high-bandwidth current probes.
• Authoring automated Python/LabVIEW scripts for regression tests and production programming.
• Generating detailed electrical specs, BOMs, and test plans; contribute to UL/IEC/CE compliance documentation and patent filings.
• Leading design reviews, mentor junior engineers, and interface with suppliers and contract manufacturers to resolve DFM/DFA issues.
• Supporting field-failure analysis and sustainment engineering for products in volume production.

Qualifications & Experience:

• Bachelor's degree in Power Electronics, Electrical/Computer Engineering, or a related field, Master's degree a plus.
• Three to five years experience in Power Electronics Engineering
• Circuit modeling and simulation experience (MATLAB, Simulink, Python) preferred
• Experience with Texas Instrument microcontrollers, C2000 preferred
• Experience with hardware design and schematic capture tools
• Experience working with real-time operating systems
• Experiencing working with communication protocols such as UART, SPI, and I2C
• Exposure to Python programming
• Exposure to laboratory communications (SCPI, Labview, etc.)
• Familiarity with modern test equipment
• Experience with software development processes (GIT, issues tracking, etc.)
• Excellent written and verbal skills
• Ability to work cooperatively in a team environment
• Ability to learn new skills independently and assume new responsibilities

In addition to competitive compensation, offering a comprehensive benefits package, which includes:

• Health insurance
• Dental insurance
• Vision insurance
• Life insurance
• Supplemental insurance
• Flexible spending account (FSA)
• 401k plan with company match
• Accrued paid time off
• Paid sick-time leave
• Tuition reimbursement

Excellent growth opportunities are available for individuals who are willing to learn and develop.
