Principal Power Electronics Engineer
On-siteFeasterville-Trevose, Pennsylvania, United States
Job Summary
Design and bring to production high-power inverter and energy conversion systems for demanding industrial environments. Take ownership of power architecture, hardware development, and product delivery, leading from concept through release and in-field performance support. Debug hardware at the bench, solve real-world problems, and drive designs from schematic through tested hardware. Ensure designs perform reliably in real-world applications over time by managing EMI, thermal issues, and high-voltage PCB layout. This role targets engineers with proven experience in bi-directional topologies, AC ratings up to 575VAC, and battery system integration. The team focuses on lighting products, requiring hands-on expertise with IGBTs, MOSFETs, and gate driver circuits.
