Senior Power Electronics Engineer

About the Role

Join a hands-on avionics team developing power systems and electronics for hypersonic flight vehicles. You will own critical hardware subsystems from initial design through validation and production integration.

What You'll Do

• Design power electronics PCBAs, including motor controllers, DC-DC converters, inverters, power switches, and power distribution systems.

• Own hardware through schematic design, bring-up, debugging, validation, and production integration.

• Define subsystem requirements and develop power system designs within the broader vehicle architecture.

• Develop high-voltage and high-current systems for actuators, power filtering, and avionics power buses.

• Support power electronics for ground systems as needed.

What We're Looking For

• 3 to 15 years of experience designing power electronics, including motor controllers, DC-DC converters, or power distribution PCBAs.

• A BS, MS, or PhD in Electrical Engineering or a related field.

• Hands-on experience taking hardware from circuit and PCB design through bring-up, debugging, validation, and production.

• PCB design skills using Altium or an equivalent tool, along with familiarity with SPICE and MATLAB/Simulink.

• Experience with high-voltage systems, inverters, and EMI/EMC considerations.

• Background in aerospace, defense, automotive, robotics, or another high-reliability hardware environment is valuable.

• Must be a U.S. citizen or Green Card holder and eligible for security clearance.
