Must be local to the Cambridge office and able to support flexible in-office work.
Active clearance strongly preferred. Strong candidates without an active clearance must be able to obtain a secret clearance upon starting this role.
You will design, specify, develop, and test power system architectures and requirements for a diverse range of applications. These include miniature power conversion and management circuitry, distributed power architectures, radiation-hardened designs, novel battery management circuitry, small motor controllers, switched-mode power conversion, and precision feedback systems. You will also engage in the initial planning and design phases of system specifications and requirements.
Key Responsibilities:
Design, develop, and build power system architectures.
Conduct research, design, development, and testing of hardware such as miniature power conversion and management circuitry, distributed power architectures, and radiation-hardened designs.
Optimize system designs for reduced size, weight, and power.
Design new products and develop technical specifications for production.
Analyze hardware configurations and processing solutions, ensuring hardware conformance to specifications.
Develop and maintain effective internal and external relationships.
Independently drive solutions to complex problems, develop requirements, propose solutions when customer requirements are unclear or incomplete, and adapt to changes in requirements.
Serve as a Subject Matter Expert (SME) in advanced architectures and designs for complex power electronics.
Participate in business development and proposal activities.
Identify program/system-level technical risks and develop and execute mitigation strategies.
Required Skills and Abilities:
Expertise in at least one of the following areas: isolated and non-isolated DC/DC power conversion, rectification, inversion, battery management systems, motor controller design, system-level power distribution design, system/board level grounding/shielding, and EMC design techniques.
Proficiency in designing and troubleshooting power electronics.
Skilled in schematic capture and printed circuit board layout.
Ability to perform circuit simulation using Spice or other simulation tools.
Experience with system modeling and analysis using MATLAB, Simulink, or comparable tools.
Strong understanding of applied math and physics.
Ability to write detailed documentation.
