Senior High Voltage Electronics Engineer

About the role

We are seeking an experienced Senior High Voltage Electronics Engineer to lead a technical team in designing, developing, and validating next-generation, high-efficiency power conversion systems. You will serve as both a technical authority and a team leader, guiding hardware architecture and driving planar transformer design, advanced thermal management, high-voltage component selection, and printed circuit board (PCB) development from concept to production.

Responsibilities

• Guide, mentor, and align cross-functional technical teams (software, mechanical, layout) to execute complex engineering projects from concept to production.
• Design advanced thermal solutions for high-power density PCBs, including thermal vias, heavy copper tracking, and insulation materials.
• Integrate active and passive cooling systems such as heat sinks, liquid cooling cold plates, or thermal interface materials (TIMs).
• Design and optimize planar transformers and planar inductors for high-frequency, high-voltage power converters.
• Lead high-voltage PCB layout architectures, integrating embedded winding structures for planar magnetics.
• Establish creepage, clearance, and isolation boundaries per safety standards.
• Simulate circuits, magnetics, and thermal performance using SPICE, PLECS, and thermal analysis tools (e.g., Ansys Icepak, Flotherm).
• Create schematics and oversee multi-layer, high-density, high-voltage PCB designs.
• Lead hardware testing, debugging, and compliance validation under extreme thermal conditions in the lab.

Requirements

• Education: Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering (master’s or Ph.D. preferred).
• Experience: Minimum of 5+ years in high-voltage hardware board design and project leadership.
• Leadership Skills: At least 4+ years of experience leading, mentoring, or managing engineering teams.

Qualifications

• Thermal & Cooling Design Expertise: Proven success in thermal management for high-power electronics, including PCB cooling strategies and heat sink integration.
• Strategic Thinking: Demonstrated strategic technical and market strategy development and implementation.
• High Familiarity with Planar Magnetics: Direct experience designing, optimizing, and manufacturing planar transformers.
• PCB Expertise: Proven success designing multi-layer PCBs for 400V to 1kV+ environments.
• Tools: Proficiency with Altium Designer or Cadence Allegro, alongside thermal simulation software.
• Standards: Strong knowledge of safety and manufacturing specs (IPC-2221
