Power Electronic Engineer

Scope of Role

Power Electronics (OBC, DC-DC, inverters preferred), EV/PHEV charging systems and architectures, HV/LV electrical systems and interfaces

Area of Responsibility

Technical Leadership

• Lead development of Power Electronics and Charging Modules (OBC, DC-DC converters, HV/LV interfaces, charging inlets, related ECUs).
• Own system requirements definition, cascading, and validation from vehicle-level down to component-level.
• Drive technical decision-making, design reviews, and architecture selection.
• Ensure compliance with automotive standards, safety, EMC, and regulatory requirements.

Program & Delivery Ownership

• Lead commodity development from KO to SOP, including concept, design freeze, DV, PV, and launch support.
• Ensure achievement of QCD (Quality, Cost, Delivery) targets.
• Manage engineering deliverables in alignment with program milestones and gateways.
• Lead issue resolution, root cause analysis, and corrective actions across development phases.

Supplier & Stakeholder Management

• Act as technical interface to suppliers, managing RFQs, technical evaluations, and supplier performance.
• Review and approve supplier designs, DFMEA, DVP&R, validation results, and PPAP documentation.
• Coordinate with cross-functional teams including Vehicle Engineering, Manufacturing, Purchasing, Quality, NVH, Thermal, Packaging, and Safety.

Validation, Quality & Compliance

• Define and approve DVP&R, test plans, and validation strategies.
• Ensure compliance with functional safety (ISO 26262), ASPICE, EMC, thermal, and durability requirements.
• Support quality activities such as 8D, lessons learned, and continuous improvement.

Mentorship & Governance

• Provide technical leadership and mentorship to junior and mid-level engineers.
• Establish best practices, standardization, and knowledge management for the commodity.
• Support strategic roadmap development for future power electronics and charging technologies.
