Client is seeking a Senior EE, Tech Lead, or Manager to lead and
Manage a highly skilled group of Electrical and Power electronic engineers. More specifically, a qualified
Technical lead candidate will be involved in:
Providing technical leadership to the EE team through the following:
Design and testing of SiC-based power electronic converter topologies including active rectifiers, isolated DC-DC converters, solid-state-transformers, and high-speed motor drives
Detailed PCB designs including SiC gate drivers, system control PCBs, and support hardware
Optimizing embedded control algorithms, harmonic compensators, software PLLs, etc.
Develop Controller-Hardware-in-the-Loop and Power-Hardware-in-the-loop test setups
Creation, review, and issuance of prototype and production-level electrical drawings and schematics
Leadership and/or managerial experience with a focus on the following:
Leading a team of 4-10 engineers through research and product development phases
Providing technical leadership while also pushing the team to meet customer requirements, schedules, and budgets
Autonomy to hire new team members and write proposals/bring in new work
Write and/or review EE-focused patents, whitepapers, and technical conference/journal articles
Mentoring of junior and other senior engineers
Work with other technical leads and the SVP Engineering to determine the technical and strategic direction of the power system group
