Job Description
请求职者投递中文与英文简历
Lead the design and development of complex power electronics hardware (100s W to 10s of kW, including power converters, application MCUs, sensors and other circuits.
Translate system requirements into modular and scalable schematics, PCB layouts and Bill-of-Material (BoM) selection.
Apply advanced knowledge of power conversion topologies (AC-DC, Inverter, Isolated and non-isolated DC-DC, LDO), magnetics, control theory, and discrete power devices (Silicon MOSFETs and GaN FETs) to optimize designs for efficiency, electrical performance, solution scalability & modularity, BoM size & cost, and manufacturability.
Perform board level Thermal, Signal and Power Integrity (SI/PI), EMC/EMI Simulations to predict system KPIs, identify potential issues and optimize design before physical prototyping.
Manage hardware aspects of power electronics projects, ensuring adherence to timelines, budgets, and project milestones.
Collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams (e.g., System Architect, Power Product Design Team, Software development team, external vendors) to achieve seamless integration of hardware with other system components (e.g., Software and Firmware, solution cabinet/enclosure, validation equipment, etc.).
Evaluate, troubleshoot, and debug hardware prototypes, identify root causes of failures, and implement corrective actions to the original design.
Author technical documentation for hardware designs and test procedures.
Release and maintain (sub-) systems board design on Altium platform to enhance Renesas solutions reuse.
Qualifications
MSEE is required, PhD is a plus, with 5-10 years of relevant experience in Power Converters design and development.
Proven track record of successfully leading the development of complex power electronics system design and physical prototype validation.
Solid knowledge of electrical engineering fundamentals, strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
In-depth knowledge of PCB layout techniques for power conversion topologies, especially DC-AC Inverters, Resonant Converters (LLC, CLLLC, etc.), Dual Active Bridge and other Isolated AC-DC and DC-DC topologies.
Strong knowledge in design and prototyping of magnetics components
Proven track-record of successfully design power converters using discrete power devices (MOSFETs, IGBTs, GaNs).
Proficient with power electronics simulation tools (e.g. MATLAB Simulink, SIMetrix/Simplis, SPICE-like simulators, etc.).
In-depth knowledge of PCB layout technique to minimize EMC/EMI issues and related compliance regulations.
Proficient with PCB design and simulation tools (e.g. Altium, Ansys, etc.)
Proficient with Thermal, Signal & Power Integrity (SI/PI), EMC/EMI Simulations flow and tools; mechanical stress simulations is a plus.
Proficient with various test equipment used for power systems evaluation (e.g., oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzer, electronic loads, multimeters, etc.). Ability in using these tools to measure KPIs like voltage, current, power factor, efficiency, etc. is essential.
Excellent communication skills and demonstrated ability to work cross-functionally with a wide range of world-wide groups including System Architects, Power ICs design teams, Software engineers, etc.
Experience in designing and developing power electronics systems utilizing Wide-bandgap (WBG) devices (e.g., GaN, SiC) is a strong plus.
Experience in Firmware development for Power Converter Digital Controller is a strong plus.
