Job Role & Responsibilities

Role:   Product Verification Engineer

Technical/ Functional:

• Design motor controllers for BLDC, PMSM, and induction motors used in electric powertrains.


• Design and optimize isolated and non-isolated DC-DC converters (buck, boost, flyback, forward, LLC resonant, etc.) for EV auxiliary power supplies and high-voltage power distribution.


• Design and optimize various vehicle controller i.e. VCU, Charger, BMS etc.


• Develop inverter power stages, including 2-level, 3-level, and multilevel topologies with MOSFETs, IGBTs, SiC/GaN devices.


• Optimize gate driver circuits, dead-time control, and protection mechanisms for reliable and efficient switching.


• Select and implement high-efficiency power semiconductor devices (MOSFETs, GaN, SiC), magnetics, and control ICs.


• Implement DC-link capacitor selection, busbar design, and snubber circuits to enhance system performance.


• Perform stability analysis, transient response testing, and loop compensation design for closed-loop converters.


• Ensure high power density, efficiency optimization, and EMI/EMC mitigation.


• Design multi-layer PCBs for power electronics applications, ensuring optimized trace routing, creepage/clearance compliance, ensuring minimal parasitic and optimal switching performance and thermal dissipation.


• Conduct worst-case circuit analysis (WCCA), Design Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (DFMEA), and Hardware Safety Analysis.


• Review schematics, layouts, and component selections with a focus on electrical design quality and robustness for EV controllers.


• Perform detailed simulations, worst-case analysis, signal/power integrity analysis, Stress analysis and FMECA.


• Identify potential design risks and ensure mitigations are in place before release/validation.


• Ensure DFM (Design for Manufacturability), DFA (Design for Assembly) and DFT (Design for Test) principles are incorporated.


• Conduct structured peer reviews and generate design review reports.


• Ensure all designs meet automotive standards for EMI/EMC, thermal performance, reliability requirements and functional safety.
