Job Description
To work as part of a design and development team in the design, procurement, prototyping, optimization, testing and qualification of the power converters and other power electronics circuits with primary focus on PCB Design.
Following proper documentation and test plans as per industrial standards during the design process.
The candidate should have good written and verbal communication skills and be able to work in a team effectively.
This position requires support for new products as well as legacy products.
Desired candidate Profiles:
Expert in PCB design using leading PCB design software such as Altium Designer, Allegro, OrCAD.
Experienced in design of complex analog, digital, and power multi-layer printed circuit boards for high density and high parts count power supply applications (Charger, Power supply, DC-DC converter etc.).
Expert in the PCB design process: schematic capture, layout, generation of design files, BOMs, and release and revision control to ERP.
Expert in generation of Gerber image files, and knowledgeable with the CAM350 suite of tools and PCB fabrication processes.
Expert in the PCB layout process conforming to IPC standards and electrical and mechanical constraints of printed circuit board design, fabrication, and assembly.
Knowledgeable in switched-mode power supply PCB design constraints: spacing requirements for high voltages and PCB track sizing for high current; layout practices to mitigate EMI issues; mounting of heavy components such as magnetics, heatsinks, and busbars.
Knowledgeable in safety agency requirements for insulation and clearance/creepage spacings.
Desired Candidate Profile
Knowledgeable in electronics packaging and design for manufacturability to minimize cost and labour content.
Knowledge desirable in CAD modelling and simulation of PCB electrical and thermal characteristics.
