Hardware Engineer (Power Tech)

Responsibilities

• Design and develop AC/DC Power Systems, including UPS and PDU hardware for enterprise products.
• Lead testing, validation, and troubleshooting at the system and component levels (e.g., batteries, inverters, and PCBAs).
• Work cross-functionally with R&D, DQA, Layout, and other engineering teams to define product requirements and resolve issues during development.
• Collaborate with manufacturing teams to ensure design for manufacturability (DFM), and support DOE planning, qualification, and production ramp-up.
• Ensure compliance with international electrical safety and environmental standards (e.g., UL, IEC, CE, RoHS).
• Provide technical documentation, design reviews, and electrical support throughout the product lifecycle.
• Own project timelines and drive technical decision-making to meet program goals.
• Analyze and improve power efficiency, battery integration, and thermal management for UPS/PDU systems.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or related field.
• 5+ years of experience in UPS/PDU, DC power systems, or OEM development.
• Proven experience designing UPS systems over 1kW, including single and 3-phase.
• Solid background in switching power design, battery systems (Lead-Acid, LiFePO4), and BMS technologies.
• Familiarity with testing methodologies and system-level verification.
• Strong communication and interpersonal skills to collaborate across engineering functions.

Preferred Qualifications

• Expertise in power conversion technologies (AC/DC, DC/DC converters).
• Knowledge of solar energy systems, including PV modules, MPPT, and inverter design.
• Experience with energy storage, smart grid integration, and energy management systems.
• Familiarity with industry standards such as UL 1741, IEEE 1547, IEC 62040, and EN 55032.
• Understanding of regulatory and environmental compliance (CE, FCC, RoHS, REACH).
• Hands-on experience with high-voltage safety testing and grid connection protocols.
