Principal R&D/ Product DVL Engineer- Power Integrity
About the role
Define and drive the power integrity technical roadmap for high-density compute and data center power distribution platforms, including 800+ V DC and emerging higher-voltage DC architectures.
Lead system-level architecture trade studies for AC and DC power paths, rack-level power distribution, power shelves, busbars, connectors, cables, and conversion interfaces.
Create and review simulation models and design rules using tools such as SPICE, Allegro, PowerDC, Ansys Q3D, and related field-solver or circuit-simulation environments.
Correlate simulation results with lab measurements and lead closure of model-to-hardware gaps for complex power delivery systems.
Serve as technical consultant to internal teams, other business units, customers, and suppliers on power integrity, high-current distribution, high-voltage design, and system-level tradeoffs.
Translate customer technology pain points into product requirements, validation plans, technical roadmaps, and differentiated solution concepts.
Lead technical reviews with customers and senior stakeholders; present complex concepts clearly and persuasively to diverse audiences.
Identify and resolve critical electrical issues through hands-on testing, debug, root cause analysis, risk assessment, and corrective action planning.
Drive technical standards, design guidelines, product/process learning, and IP generation for power distribution products and architectures.
Mentor Staff, Senior, and developing engineers; raise organizational capability in power integrity simulation, measurement, and design practice.
