Design and develop high-performance switch-mode power supplies (SMPS) for military and industrial use

Utilize a range of converter topologies and control methods to optimize efficiency, power density, and reliability

Conduct detailed circuit simulation, schematic capture, and design reviews using tools such as Altium and PSpice

Ensure designs meet applicable EMI/EMC, thermal, and environmental requirements (MIL-STD-704, 461, 810)

Package designs for rugged environments including attention to shock, vibration, and thermal management

Prepare documentation packages including schematics, bills of materials, test plans, and technical reports

Troubleshoot issues during prototyping, validation, and production phases

Interface with customers to interpret specifications and define custom solutions

Lead or contribute to internal project teams and support qualification testing and certification efforts

Required Qualifications:

Bachelor’s Degree in Electrical Engineering (BSEE)

Minimum 5 years’ experience in the design and development of power electronics for high-reliability or MIL-spec applications

Demonstrated experience with power levels exceeding 1KW and a strong understanding of SMPS topologies (e.g., full-bridge, push-pull, buck, boost)

Knowledge of EMI/EMC compliance standards, thermal design principles, and ruggedized packaging

Proficient in power electronics simulation and design tools (PSpice, Altium, etc.)

Strong analytical and troubleshooting skills

Excellent written and verbal communication skills

Preferred Qualifications:

8+ years’ experience in the design and development of power electronics

MSEE or advanced technical degree

Familiarity with MIL-STD design practices (MIL-STD-704, 461, 810)

Experience with environmental and qualification testing

Experience with magnetic design or transformer-based power systems

Hands-on experience with thermal and mechanical integration of power systems

Familiarity with DoD or defense contractor programs and lifecycle documentation
