Electrical Engineer (DoD Experience)

Client is seeking a Senior EE, Tech Lead, or Manager to lead and

manage a highly skilled group of Electrical and Power electronic engineers. More specifically, a qualified

technical lead candidate will be involved in:

• Providing technical leadership to the EE team through the following:
• Design and testing of SiC-based power electronic converter topologies including active rectifiers, isolated DC-DC converters, solid-state-transformers, and high-speed motor drives
• Detailed PCB designs including SiC gate drivers, system control PCBs, and support hardware
• Optimizing embedded control algorithms, harmonic compensators, software PLLs, etc.
• Develop Controller-Hardware-in-the-Loop and Power-Hardware-in-the-loop test setups
• Creation, review, and issuance of prototype and production-level electrical drawings and schematics
• Leadership and/or managerial experience with a focus on the following:
• Leading a team of 4-10 engineers through research and product development phases
• Providing technical leadership while also pushing the team to meet customer requirements, schedules, and budgets
• Autonomy to hire new team members and write proposals/bring in new work
• Write and/or review EE-focused patents, whitepapers, and technical conference/journal articles
• Mentoring of junior and other senior engineers
• Work with other technical leads and the SVP Engineering to determine the technical and strategic direction of the power system group
