Power Electronics Engineer
The Power Electronics Engineer will be involved in the development of low voltage and medium voltage power electronics designs for Drive System projects. This is a technical role and will involve working in a multi-disciplinary team of engineers to specify, design, support manufacturing & validation of MW-scale power electronics for Marine, Offshore and Naval, Renewable Energy and Industry applications.
Key Responsibilities
Specify, design and document power electronics converters technical solutions to meet specific application requirements.
Undertake all aspects of power electronics circuits design, gating electronics design, thermal design, etc. This requires semiconductor device domain knowledge (Diodes, Thyristors, IGBTs, GTOs, IGCT, MOSFETS, SiC, GaN, etc).
Development of power electronic systems analytical, modelling tools for systems with a large degree of MW range power electronic converter systems. These will include power electronic inverter thermal studies, EMC, harmonic studies, common mode studies, rating evaluation, performance evaluation and optimisation etc.
Verification, validation testing of low voltage & medium voltage power electronic systems, Evaluation, performance evaluation and optimisation etc.Qualifications/Requirements
Minimum of a bachelor's degree, Masters or PhD degree in power electronics is desirable.
Good semiconductor device domain knowledge and their associated gating electronics & snubber circuits design and thermal design.
Experience of power electronics design tools such as Mathcad, MATLAB, Simulink, PLECS etc.
Able to achieve UK security clearance
