Power Electronic Magnetics Design Engineer
Location: South West England | On-site | Permanent
Are you a Power Electronics Engineer with experience in transformer, inductor or magnetic component design?
We’re hiring for an exciting opportunity to join a specialist engineering and manufacturing business designing custom high-frequency and planar magnetic components for demanding applications across a range of industries.
Working within a collaborative, hands-on design team, you’ll take ownership of projects from initial concept and calculations through to prototype development, manufacturing support and customer engagement.
The role
You’ll be involved in:
- Designing transformers, inductors and other power electronic magnetic components
- Developing custom solutions for high-power applications
- Performing design calculations, simulations and technical analysis
- Supporting prototype builds and reducing manufacturing risk early in the design process
- Working closely with manufacturing, mechanical and R&D colleagues to refine designs
- Incorporating production feedback into future product development
- Supporting customer discussions, troubleshooting and technical project delivery
- Collaborating with an international engineering network on complex projects
What we’re looking for
- A background in power electronics design, particularly transformers, inductors or magnetics
- Experience designing power supplies or working with converter topologies
- Exposure to high-frequency transformer design is highly desirable; planar magnetics experience would be a bonus
- Comfortable with technical calculations, simulation and practical engineering problem-solving
- Familiarity with tools such as ANSYS Maxwell or similar magnetic simulation software would be advantageous
- An interest in understanding how components are manufactured - not just designed
- A collaborative, adaptable approach and confidence communicating with customers and colleagues
The position is primarily site-based in the South West, reflecting the practical, prototype-led nature of the work.
