The role combines product measurements, test-hardware integration, troubleshooting, data review, and safe laboratory operation.
Responsibilities include, but are not limited to
Characterize power hardware: Test DC-DC converters, power modules, and semiconductor devices using power supplies, electronic loads, oscilloscopes, current probes, and temperature measurements.
Evaluate performance: Interpret switching waveforms, voltage and current behavior, efficiency, transient response, regulation, and temperature; identify product, measurement, or setup issues.
Develop test setups: Select measurement methods and adapt fixtures, wiring, sensing, and instrumentation for new product requirements.
Support qualification: Run electrical and thermal derating and automated power-cycling tests; verify conditions, monitor tests, investigate anomalies, troubleshoot hardware, and document results.
Minimum Qualifications
Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field.
Knowledge of switching converters, electrical measurements, transient behavior, and thermal performance.
Hands-on experience with power-electronics hardware and instruments such as oscilloscopes, multimeters, power supplies, electronic loads, probes, sensors, or data acquisition equipment. Relevant academic, project, internship, or professional experience may qualify.
Ability to read schematics, assemble or modify test hardware, interpret measurements, and troubleshoot product behavior and test setups during late-stage bring-up.
Ability to analyze results, document findings, and communicate clearly.
Preferred Qualifications
Experience testing power semiconductor devices, DC-DC converters, power modules, or uModule products.
Experience monitoring extended automated characterization or qualification tests.
Familiarity with Allegro, Altium Designer, or similar PCB tools for new or modified test hardware.
Experience designing test fixtures, wiring harnesses, or custom hardware interfaces.
Familiarity with automated test equipment and data acquisition systems.
Knowledge of thermal management, environmental testing, or reliability laboratory practices.
What Makes Someone Successful in This Role
The successful candidate is curious, dependable, and comfortable working with power-conversion hardware. They connect measurements to circuit behavior, troubleshoot methodically, ask questions when needed, and gradually take ownership of assigned tests and hardware while collaborating on new technical challenges.
