Austin, Texas
If you're a senior-level Electrical Engineer who loves the technical challenge of power electronics but also wants real ownership of what you design, this is an opportunity worth exploring.
We're seeking an Electrical Power Engineer III to develop advanced power systems used in next-generation aerospace and defense applications, including UAVs, missile systems, actuation systems, turbo generators, micro-turbines, and hybrid-electric propulsion.
This is not a narrow design role.
You'll have hands-on ownership of new products from initial proposal and architecture through detailed design, prototype bring-up, qualification testing, and production support.
You'll work on sophisticated aerospace power technology including:
Motor controls and electromechanical systems
Power generation and distribution
DC-DC conversion
Active rectification
3-phase power systems
Turbo generators
Servo-actuation systems
Hybrid-electric propulsion
Embedded power electronics
You'll have significant influence over how these systems are designed and how future product lines evolve.
You'll take power electronics projects from concept through production, including:
Developing electrical power systems for advanced aerospace products
Evaluating customer requirements and developing system requirements
Creating power system models using MATLAB/Simulink or equivalent tools
Designing 2+kW power conditioning and distribution systems
Designing motor controls, active rectification, DC-DC conversion, and 3-phase systems
Component selection and schematic capture
Simulation and PCB layout
Integrating sensors into closed-loop control systems
Supporting embedded firmware and software
Hands-on prototype bring-up and troubleshooting
Designing test stands, fixtures, and validation procedures
Performing verification and qualification testing
Supporting failure investigations and RCCA
Supporting products through manufacturing and production
Ideally, you'll bring:
Bachelor's degree in Electrical, Electronics, or Computer Engineering
8+ years of relevant power electronics experience
Strong motor control and electromechanical controls experience
Experience designing power conditioning and distribution systems of 2kW+
Power electronics hardware design experience
MATLAB/Simulink or similar modeling experience
Experience troubleshooting embedded power electronic systems
Failure investigation and RCCA experience
Understanding of reliability analysis including MTBF and FTA
Experience with aerospace configuration management, AS9100 manufacturing environments, and embedded firmware is highly desirable.
A master's degree in Engineering is a plus.
You'll join an international engineering organization developing specialized technology for aerospace, defense, and transportation applications.
The products developed here aren't theoretical. They're being designed for demanding applications including UAVs, missile systems, electric actuation, advanced power generation, and hybrid-electric propulsion.
For an experienced power electronics engineer who wants technical depth, hands-on engineering, and ownership from concept through production, this is a rare opportunity.
The company offers an excellent benefits package including:
