What they're looking for
- Architect and design high-power converters/inverters (>10 kW) for aerospace electrical and motion control products, balancing efficiency, power density, and reliability
- Design topologies and the power stage (DC bus, precharge/discharge, snubbers/clamps, current sensing, filtering) and define safe operating envelopes and derating at given environments
- Drive thermal design with mechanical engineering (heatsinks, cold plates, airflow/liquid cooling) and validate junction-to-ambient performance including loss breakdown, thermal analysis
- Own EMI/EMC strategy for aerospace environments: grounding, shielding, layout constraints, conducted/radiated mitigation, filter design, and test readiness
- Lead schematic capture and review PCB layout for low-inductance, high-current/high-voltage design, ensure creepage/clearance, isolation, and safety best practices
- Plan and execute prototype bring-up and high-power lab testing with safe procedures, debug failures and perform root-cause analysis
