Job Description
We’re working with a forward-thinking client in the power systems sector seeking an experienced engineer to take ownership of the end-to-end design of electrical and mechanical elements in power electronic systems. This includes converters, drives, and inverters used in medium to high-power applications.
Key Responsibilities:
* Lead the design and specification of power, control, and thermal management systems tailored to customer needs.
* Deliver comprehensive electrical design including snubber circuits, gate drivers, and thermal models using technologies like IGBTs, MOSFETs, SiC, GaN, etc.
* Support fault level analysis and define system protection strategies.
* Create and maintain detailed schematics (Eplan or equivalent) and structured BoMs with full change traceability.
* Conduct system-level testing and validation — covering EMC, thermal endurance, overload conditions, and overall performance.
* Ensure compliance with health & safety legislation, industry codes, and classification standards.
* Document test results and lessons learned, feeding into continuous improvement and FMEA processes.
* Work closely with internal teams and external stakeholders, including suppliers and customers, and support tendering and commissioning activities.
Who We’re Looking For:
* Degree-qualified in Electrical or Power Electronics Engineering (Master’s/PhD preferred).
* Strong grasp of power converter topologies, electrical machine control strategies, and related semiconductor technologies.
* Skilled in design for manufacturability, thermal management, and circuit protection.
* Open to short-term travel in the UK and abroad.
* Must be eligible for UK security clearance.
