Role Overview
You'll support the design, integration, and lifecycle management of electronic systems, with a particular focus on incorporating AC/DC and DC/DC power supplies into complete system solutions — covering everything from schematic design through to manufacturing transfer and field support.
Key Responsibilities
- Own the electronic design lifecycle: schematic design, PCB layout, prototyping, verification, and transfer to manufacturing.
- Integrate AC/DC and DC/DC power supplies into larger systems, defining power architecture, distribution, protection, and grounding.
- Validate analogue control/monitoring signals (voltage/current setpoints, feedback loops, sensing, signal conditioning) and interface with digital control systems.
- Support communication via protocols such as PMBus, CANopen, Modbus, and SCPI.
- Perform system-level analysis (efficiency, stability, thermal, fault conditions) and support EMC pre-compliance testing.
- Conduct prototype bring-up, debugging, and fault-finding to component level.
- Produce technical documentation and support manufacturing introduction (DFM) and field issue resolution.
- Collaborate with mechanical, firmware, systems, and manufacturing engineers.
Requirements
- Degree in Electronics Engineering (or equivalent experience).
- Strong analogue/digital electronics background, with experience integrating AC/DC and DC/DC power supplies at system level.
- Full product lifecycle experience, concept through manufacturing.
- Working knowledge of protocols such as PMBus, CANopen, Modbus, SCPI.
- Understanding of power conversion topologies, EMC, and thermal management.
- Strong fault-finding skills and lab equipment proficiency (oscilloscopes, power analysers, electronic loads).
- 3–7 years' relevant industrial electronics experience.
Desirable
- Closed-loop control/PID knowledge, embedded systems exposure, telemetry/diagnostics experience, or familiarity with certification standards (CE, UL, IEC).
