Job Description
Power Electronics Engineer
Location: Nottingham (Hybrid - primarily on-site)
Salary: £50,000 - £75,000 (DOE)
We are working with a key electronics client that is pioneering a new AC drive technology - the matrix converter. This direct AC-to-AC conversion system is set to disrupt the industrial drives market.
Our client has been a trusted name in DC drives for over 35 years and has invested heavily in R&D to develop this cutting-edge technology. They are moving from their first production-ready model to a full range of high-power units from 22 kW to 200 kW, and they need an experienced Power Electronics Engineer to help achieve this.
The Role: You will be a lead power electronics engineer working on higher-power frames (90 kW and 200 kW). Your responsibilities include translating advanced R&D into robust, compliant, and manufacturable products. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys practical electronics engineering and solving real-world problems.
Responsibilities:
1. Lead the design of high-power AC converters, focusing on practical power electronics product development.
2. Transform research into production-ready industrial drives that meet market demands.
3. Apply industry experience to address challenges such as EMC compliance, thermal management, and design-for-manufacture.
4. Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure smooth product introduction.
5. Contribute to the development of future high-power models.
About You:
* 5+ years' industry experience in power electronics product development (this is not a graduate or postdoc role).
* Experience with high-power electronics such as drives, inverters, DC/DC, AC/DC, or AC/AC converters.
* Strong skills in design for manufacture, EMC compliance, and practical engineering for industrial environments.
* Ability to work primarily on-site with high-power equipment, with some hybrid flexibility.
Why Apply?
* Salary range £50k-£75k, depending on experience.
* Work on cutting-edge power electronics that will transform the industrial drives market.
* Join a company where you'll have ownership, influence, and the opportunity to make a tangible impact.
