Manager, Power Electronics Engineering

Description

We are seeking a Manager of Power Electronics Engineering to lead a team of 10–15 electrical engineers developing next-generation inverter systems for grid applications.

This role combines technical leadership with team management. You will be responsible not only for guiding engineers, but for driving system-level design decisions and ensuring that our products perform reliably in the field.

You will own the development of power converter platforms and their integration into multi-megawatt systems (~5 MW scale), working across hardware, controls, and system integration disciplines.

Requirements

• Lead and develop a team of 10–15 electrical engineers working on power converter design and integration
• Drive the design and architecture of grid-connected inverter systems at the multi-megawatt scale
• Ensure successful integration of inverter platforms into larger systems (BESS, solar plants, data centers)
• Provide technical leadership in power electronics, including converter design, PCB implementation, controls, protection, and system-level electrical integration (fusing, cabling, grounding, and interconnects)
• Collaborate cross-functionally with firmware, mechanical, manufacturing, and field engineering teams
• Guide engineering tradeoffs with a focus on performance, reliability, cost, and manufacturability
• Lead design reviews, verification & validation efforts (DVT), and product release processes, ensuring designs are thoroughly tested, meet requirements, and perform reliably under real-world operating conditions
• Mentor engineers and elevate the technical capabilities of the team

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering (PhD a plus)
• 8+ years of experience in power electronics or related field
• 3+ years of experience leading engineering teams or technical groups
• Strong expertise in: 
  • Power converter design (DC/AC, DC/DC, inverter systems)
  • Medium-voltage and high-power applications
  • Grid-connected systems and standards
  • PCB design and layout considerations for high-power/high-frequency systems
  • Balance-of-system design including protection, cabling, grounding, and interconnects
• Experience designing or integrating megawatt-scale power systems
• Experience leading or overseeing design validation testing (DVT), system test plans, and failure/root-cause analysis
• Solid understanding of system-level design, including controls, thermal, and protection considerations
• Experience with applications such as energy storage, solar PV, or grid infrastructure
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with a hands-on engineering mindset
• Ability to communicate clearly and work effectively across disciplines

  Benefits

• 401(k) with company matching
• Medical, dental, and vision insurance
• Disability and life insurance
• Flexible Spending Account (FSA)
• Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
• Paid Time Off (PTO)
• Tuition reimbursement
