Power Supply Electrical Engineer
We are an engineering-driven organization where teams work hands-on across the full product lifecycle, from concept and design through fabrication, testing, and delivery. Our engineers collaborate closely across disciplines to solve complex technical challenges, delivering reliable, high-quality systems tailored to each customer's needs.
Position Overview
We are seeking a Power Supply Electrical Engineer to design, develop, and validate power conversion solutions for embedded and industrial systems. The role focuses on architecting and delivering robust switch-mode and linear power supplies, integrating analog and digital control, and supporting PCB layout and manufacturing. The ideal candidate will balance hands-on circuit design with system-level thinking to meet performance, reliability, cost, and regulatory requirements.

The ideal candidate will balance hands-on circuit design with system-level thinking to meet performance, reliability, cost, and regulatory requirements.
Key Responsibilities
- Design and develop power supply solutions, including switched-mode (buck, boost, SEPIC, flyback) and linear regulators for a range of product requirements.
- Create and optimize analog and digital circuits for power conversion, regulation, monitoring, and protection.
- Perform detailed circuit simulation and analysis (SPICE, behavioral models) to validate topology, stability, and thermal performance.
- Develop schematics and collaborate on PCB layout to ensure signal integrity, thermal management, and manufacturability.
- Specify components, generate BOMs, and evaluate suppliers to meet cost, availability, and reliability targets.
- Prototype, test, and characterize power supplies in the lab, including functional testing, efficiency, thermal profiling, and stress testing.
- Define and execute validation plans to meet regulatory and safety standards (EMC/EMI, safety isolation, surge/tolerance requirements).
- Troubleshoot field and production issues, provide design revisions, and support root cause analysis and corrective actions.
- Work cross-functionally with firmware, mechanical, and manufacturing teams to integrate power systems into products and resolve interface issues.
- Document designs, test procedures, and design verification results; support transfer to production and provide engineering support to manufacturing and QA teams.
Qualifications
- Bachelors degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field; Masters degree preferred.
- 3 years of experience designing power supplies and analog/digital circuitry; experience with both low-power and higher-power systems a plus.
- Strong circuit design skills in analog and digital domains, including control loops, feedback compensation, and power semiconductor selection.
- Hands-on experience with PCB design constraints for power electronics, and familiarity with layout tools (e.g., Altium, Cadence, OrCAD).
- Proficiency with simulation tools (SPICE/PSPICE/LTspice or equivalent) and lab instruments (oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, power analyzers, thermal cameras).
- Knowledge of EMC/EMI mitigation techniques, safety standards, and regulatory test processes.
- Experience producing BOMs, component selection, and working with contract manufacturers to bring designs into production.
- Strong problemsolving skills, attention to detail, and the ability to communicate technical concepts clearly to crossfunctional teams.
- Preferred: experience with embedded digital control of power systems (PWM, PMBus, digital compensation) and familiarity with thermal/mechanical integration considerations.
