RCT Systems, Power Systems Division, is seeking a mid-level to senior Power Electronics / Electrical Engineer specializing in Power Electronics Hardware and Controller Design and Testing. Responsibilities of a qualified candidate will include:

+ Design and test WBG- (SiC or GaN) based power electronic converter topologies including active rectifiers, isolated DC-DC converters, solid-state-transformers, and high-speed motor drives

+ Design and test power electronic converter digital control algorithms

+ Develop Controller-Hardware-in-the-Loop (CHIL), Power-Hardware-in-the-loop (PHIL), or real-time (RT) test setups

+ Design and test systems based on WBG semiconductor modules ranging from 1.2 kV to 10 kV

+ Lead cross-functional teams to develop solid-state power conversion systems

+ Provide technical input into business development activities

+ Create, review, and issue prototype and production level test procedures and test plans

+ Write and/or review EE focused patents, whitepapers, and technical conference/journal articles

+ Mentor junior Engineers

Minimum Requirements

+ United States Citizenship, or pre-authorized government-issued clearance to work with sensitive U.S. government information, is required due to US Government ITAR program restrictions. You *must* indicate citizenship status on resume/CV or cover letter – applications not identifying citizenship status will *not* be considered. Note that even if you have an active security clearance, you must identify citizenship on your submitted application documents.

+ BS in electrical engineering, computer science, or related major required; graduate work is acceptable in lieu of some work experience

+ Ability to obtain a DoD security clearance

+ Candidates with strengths in some of the following areas are highly encouraged to apply:

- Identifying, selecting, modeling, analyzing, and designing various AC and DC power conversion topologies
- Wide bandgap semiconductor devices
- Medium voltage power distribution and solid-state-transformers (SST)
- Selection or design of magnetics for power electronics converters, particularly for higher voltage switching applications
- High speed communications development with high performance FPGAs
- Experience programming various microcontrollers, DSPs, and FPGAs
- Hands-on experience with PLECS RT Box, Typhoon HIL, OPAL-RT, or other Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) platforms
- Experience with Altium (preferred), Cadence, KiCAD, or other PCB design software

Immediate Requirements/Projects

+ High Power SiC and Silicon power device design into converters/inverters

+ MIL standards compliance (e.g., 461, 1399, 704)

+ Multi-level parallel/series connected bi-directional AC-DC and DC-DC converters

+ 13.8 kV and 4160V grid interface power converters

+ Galvanically-isolated DC-DC converters

+ Design of modular power converters ranging from 10kW to 500kW converters scalable to multiple MWs

+ Controller-Hardware-in-the-Loop (CHIL) and Power-Hardware-in-the-Loop (PHIL) development of WBG-based converter applications

Hybrid Workplace

RCT Systems PSD supports hybrid (remote/in-office) and flexible work schedules; however candidates must reside within (or be willing to relocate to) commuting distance of our Baltimore, MD facility.
