Lead Engineer - Power Electronics

Design, control, integrate and validate power conversion and (semiconductor-based) protection components for stationary grids, vehicle and aerospace applications. Integrate innovative concepts/solutions on device or subsystem level into prototypes, feasibility studies, specifications, and eventually into larger systems and components. Contribute to power electronics module design including, e.g., power semiconductor selection, evaluation, prototyping and topology studies. Serve as a technical and/or project lead in technology development and demonstration projects. Analyze, model, and simulate power electronics modules, from device to subsystem level. Simulate power conversion and protection circuits in MATLAB/Simulink/Plecs and assist with the validation of component robustness. Stay current with the latest power electronics, PCB and electronics circuit technologies and apply knowledge to power conversion and protection applications. Innovate, invent and challenge state-of-art design & process by securing critical intellectual properties through patents and publications in high impact, peer-reviewed journals Experience using one or more of power systems simulation software MATLAB / Simulink, PSCAD, PLECS, Atrium Experience in WBG power devices and applications Experience in fast actuation, active filtering, gate driver design, sensing and/or advanced cooling technologies (liquid, two phase, immersed) Experience in design, control and testing of MVDC and LVDC components and grids Experience in real-time simulations, hardware-in-the loop and power hardware in the loop such as OPAL-RT, RTDS or Typhoon Hand-on experience with field or lab testing of inverters, energy storage systems, power converters and controllers " Full working proficiency in English mandatory. Proficiency in German highly desirable. Collaborative orientation. The ability to succeed in a highly team-oriented environment with flat hierarchy
