About the role
Reports to: Engineering Manager, New Product Definition
Objective Of The Role
Based at our Cambridge office, your role will involve analyzing customer requirements to define new integrated circuit (IC) products and comprehensive application solutions that deliver exceptional value to our customers. As a New Product Definition Engineer, you will leverage advanced simulation techniques and rapid prototyping methodologies to develop and validate algorithms and topologies as part of the product definition process.
To be successful in this role, candidates must have strong theoretical and practical knowledge of electronics and have an interest in power electronics. The job entails both intensive circuit simulation, as well as laboratory validation of new product concepts.
Main Responsibilities
- Be hands on in the lab, actively participating in design verification testing and characterisation of first sample ICs in the lab;
- Validate new topology and product ideas using modern simulation tools and building lab prototypes prior to actual IC design;
- Design power supplies using Power Integrations solutions for validation and customer demonstration;
- Cooperate with and provide support to the IC design team to ensure the IC implementation meet system requirements;
- Participate in the development of compelling IC-based system solutions, based on customer and market-driven requirements for SMPS and lighting ballast solutions.
- First or upper second class degree (Bsc/Msc/BEng/MEng) in electronics or electrical engineering;
- Suitable for candidate who has recently completed undergraduate degree or PhD;
- 1-2 years practical experience is desirable but not essential.
Work based competencies:
- Keen interest in electronics hardware design, in particular an interest in power supply design;
- Strong analytical and practical skills;
- Proficient in the lab and a confident user of lab equipment;
- Demonstrated ability to write accurate and concise technical documentation including lab evaluation and simulation results;
- Experience with simulation tools.
- Understanding of power conversion topologies in the 5-200W range including flyback, forward and half bridge topologies for off-line use;
- Transformer and/or Inductor design knowledge and experience;
- Control loop theory and practice;
- Software / Simulation tools such as Mathcad, Matlab, Python, LTspice, Simplis, Plecs;
- Familiarity with digital circuit design, microcontrollers and FPGAs. Verilog programming is a plus.
