Specialist - Power Electronics Systems & Architecture

## What you’ll do:

Eaton announced, on June 11, 2026, the intent to combine its Mobility Group (including both the Vehicle and eMobility segments) with a new company. We expect to complete this process by the end of the first half of 2027. The compensation and benefits that will initially be offered for this position are based on Eaton's plans, programs and practices. If you are offered and accept this position and are actively employed by the Mobility Group when the transaction closes, the new company will provide further details to employees concerning compensation and benefits at that time.

If you want to be part of a team developing differentiated technologies and translating innovative concepts into validated solutions, this is an opportunity to shape the future of power conversion for mobility. We are seeking an experienced power-electronics technical leader with demonstrated expertise in converter systems architecture, topology evaluation, system-level modeling, hardware development and converter validation based out of Pune, India. At Eaton, we are committed to fostering an environment where work is stimulating, engaging, and purposeful. We prioritize safety, health, and wellness, and strive to exemplify inclusion and diversity. These principles are integral to our values, reflected in our vision, and reinforced by our aspirational goals.

Architecture and system definition

• Lead the definition of converter use cases, system boundaries, operating modes, operating envelopes, requirements, interfaces and CTQs.
• Translate application-level requirements into converter-level architecture and subsystem requirements.
• Identify, screen and compare alternative inverter and DC/DC converter topologies

Modeling and topology decisions

• Develop or guide reduced-order, averaged and switching-model simulations to evaluate candidate converter architectures before detailed hardware design.
• Evaluate topology alternatives across efficiency, power density, cost, reliability, component stress, thermal performance, controllability, EMI/EMC, scalability and development risk.
• Own the topology-selection process and recommend the preferred converter architecture through documented trade studies and technical reviews.

Controls integration

• Assess modulation, control-loop structure, stability, sensing, computational effort, calibration complexity, operating-mode transitions and fault-management implications of candidate topologies.
• Collaborate with controls and embedded-software engineers to confirm controllability across the complete operating envelope.

Hardware technical leadership

• Provide technical guidance in semiconductor selection, gate drives, magnetics, DC-link design, sensing, isolation, protection, EMI filtering, loss analysis, component derating and worst-case analysis.
• Mentor power-electronics hardware engineers and lead simulation, schematic, design and technical-risk reviews.

Validation

• Define converter verification and validation strategies, test methods, instrumentation and acceptance criteria.
• Lead design refinement and technical root-cause analysis.
• Guide converter concepts from early architecture exploration through proof-of-concept demonstration and technology maturation.

## Qualifications:

Qualifications:

Bachelor’s degree in Electrical or Electronics Engineering with 13–18 years of relevant experience, or a Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Power Electronics, Electrical Drives, Control Systems or a closely related discipline with 10–15 years of relevant experience.

Relevant experience should include substantial responsibility for power-converter architecture, hardware development, modeling, controls integration or converter validation

## Skills:

Required

• Strong relevant experience in converter architecture, power-electronics hardware development, system modeling or converter validation.

• Demonstrated technical ownership of multiple power-converter development activities, including at least one inverter or DC/DC converter taken from architecture selection through prototype validation

• Strong knowledge of power-conversion topologies, semiconductor devices, magnetics, gate drives, sensing, isolation and protection.
• Experience performing converter topology comparisons and architecture trade studies.
• Experience using MATLAB/Simulink and at least one converter simulation platform such as PLECS, PSIM, SABER, SIMPLIS, PSpice or LTspice.
• Working knowledge of converter modulation, current and voltage control, stability, transient response and operating-mode management.
• Experience defining converter-level verification plans and correlating simulation results with prototype measurements.
• Demonstrated ability to mentor engineers and lead multidisciplinary technical decisions.

Preferred

• Minimum 3 years of hands-on experience in Electric or Hybrid Electric Vehicles.
• Experience with traction inverters, auxiliary inverters, bidirectional converters or HV/LV DC/DC converters.
• Experience with SiC or GaN power-conversion systems
• Hands-on exposure to assessing, implementing or validating converter control concepts.
• Knowledge of functional safety, DFMEA/FMECA and automotive power-electronics development.
• Experience with HIL or PHIL validation.
• Familiarity with converter EMI/EMC, insulation coordination and high-voltage safety.
• Experience with design-to-cost, technology-maturity assessment and design re-use.
• Good communication and presentation skills - both verbal and written
• Collaborative working style, learning agility and stakeholder management skills
