Jobs in Westminster, CO

About the role

We are seeking a Principal Power Electronics Engineer I to join our growing satellite communication (SATCOM) terminal development team . In this position, you will contribute across the entire development lifecycle of next-generation power electronics hardware for military and commercial power systems—from leading the definition of power system architectures and trade studies to detailed circuit design, simulation, printed circuit board (PCB) layout, verification and integration testing, production transition, and manufacturing support.

What you'll bring

• Bachelor of Science (BS) degree or higher in Electrical Engineering from an accredited university.
• Minimum of 9 years of experience designing analog and power electronics
• Experience working with electrical power systems and subsystems, including developing power architecture and power requirements, performing trade studies for size, weight, power, and cost optimization (SWAP-C), selecting power converter topologies, and defining power management and control blocks
• Experience designing, testing and qualifying single-phase and three-phase off-line AC-DC power supplies, and DC-DC power supplies for industrial, airborne, or military systems
• Knowledge of control theory and stability of power electronics, including experience characterizing control loops and impedances in the laboratory
• Experience designing power filters for low noise outputs and for power line electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
• Experience developing design verification test plans, requirement compliance matrices, system integration and qualification test plans, and production acceptance test plans
• Experience performing worst-case circuit analysis (WCA), stress analysis, failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA), and reliability analysis for power supplies
• Extensive hands-on experience with testing and troubleshooting electronics and power converters using laboratory instruments such as oscilloscopes, impedance analyzers, spectrum analyzers, electronic loads, and signal generators
• Experience with analysis and simulation tools such as SPICE, LTSPICE, SIMetrix/SIMPLIS, PLECS, Simulink, MATLAB, MathCAD, ANSYS Q3D and SiWave, or HyperLynx
• Experience with isolation and grounding, failure mode effects analysis and fault tolerant design, and thermal management of power electronics
• Experience designing and testing power electronics units to meet industry standards and requirements in the automotive, industrial, aircraft, or military markets (e.g., FCC, CISPR, UL safety standards, ECSS, NASA, MIL standards)
