Principal Engineer / Senior Engineer, Power Circuit Design

Job Description

EC/PACK/1961/161016

Job Responsibilities

  • To perform layout design of power electronics module, such as half/full bridge IGBT/IPM module, to meet existing or future power product requirements;
  • To perform numerical simulation of the power electronics module to evaluate its transient response, determine its parasitic parameters and the corresponding conduction & switching loss;
  • To perform benchmarking of the power electronics module by static and transient electrical measurement;
  • To understand and propose to improve the device-level electrical performance and reliability of power electronics ICs, especially for the 3rd generation semiconductor devices (SiC&GaN);
  • To provide cross-functional co-ordination among thermo-mechanical, materials and process, test and reliability groups for product implementation;
  • To conduct literature and marketing review on products, patents and research papers to collect background information and facilitate proposal drafting.

Requirements

  • Master's degree or above in Electrical/Power electronics Engineering, Applied Physics, or related disciplines;
  • 8+ years or 5+ years industrial experiences in power electronics design for Master's Degree and PhD respectively, less experience for Senior Engineer;
  • Skillful in electrical layout design for high power electronics module such as MOSFET, IGBT, IPM, etc.;
  • Skillful in programming or using numerical design related software (e.g. ANSYS Q3D Extractor, HFSS, ADS, Matlab, etc.) for parasitic extraction and loss calculation of power electronics modules;
  • Hands-on experience in building up and characterizing the performance of power electronics module by using various measuring tools, such as double pulse testing system, dynamic impedance analyzer, etc.;
  • Hands-on experience in system-level production development, such as inverter, charger, wireless power transportation system is a plus;
  • Knowledge in device-level reliability is a plus;
  • Experience in power electronics packaging such as IGBT is a plus;
  • Fluent in English, good written and oral communication skills; Strong team spirit and interpersonal skills; Independent, responsible, aggressive and outgoing character.
