About you
Working at the forefront of technology is tough, so standards and expectations are high. You’ll be contributing to live projects from the start, so you’ll need to be curious, hungry to learn and ready to get stuck in. But it’s not just about technical expertise. You’ll need to be:
Degree or equivalent experience in Electrical Engineering, Electronic Engineering, Power Electronics, or a comparable discipline, with significant industrial experience in product development.
More than 7 years of industry experience in electronic design, power electronics, battery management systems, motor drives, or similar high-performance hardware development environments.
Strong technical expertise in Battery Management Systems and secondary battery technologies for battery-powered products, including protection systems, sensing, cell monitoring, power path control, thermal management, safety strategy, and system integration.
Proven experience in the design and development of power electronics products such as motor drives, battery management systems, inverters, SMPS, chargers, DC/DC converters, or other high-power electronic systems.
Deep understanding of semiconductor device characteristics, including MOSFETs, IGBTs, diodes, gate drivers, protection devices, and emerging power technologies in real-world applications.
Strong knowledge of circuit design, schematic review, PCB layout considerations, component selection, derating, creepage and clearance, EMC/EMI mitigation, and design for manufacturability.
Experienced in simulation, analysis, and validation tools such as SPICE, SiMetrix, MATLAB, Simulink, or equivalent tools used for power electronics and system-level evaluation.
Experience in applying AI-enabled tools or AI-augmented engineering workflows for hardware design, verification, validation, documentation, test automation, or test environment optimization is highly desirable.
Proven ability to understand, design and validate products for global safety, reliability, EMC/EMI, thermal, and regulatory compliance requirements.
Strong capability in failure analysis, root-cause investigation, technical risk assessment, design verification, design assurance, and problem solving across complex hardware systems.
Able to provide technical direction, lead cross-functional technical reviews, challenge assumptions constructively, and make sound engineering decisions under uncertainty.
Experienced in mentoring engineers, building technical capability, and influencing engineering practice beyond direct project delivery.
Experience working with ODM/JDM/OEM/EMS suppliers, capable of leading technical reviews, supplier assessments, design governance, and manufacturing readiness activities.
Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to explain complex technical matters clearly to multidisciplinary teams and senior management.
Comfortable working in a fast-paced, global, and multidisciplinary environment, balancing technical depth with project delivery, quality, cost, and schedule needs.
Fluent in spoken and written English.
A creative, analytical, and accountable problem solver who is motivated to raise engineering standards and deliver products that are safer, better, robust and more reliable.
Above all, you’ll want to play a key part in bringing the next generation of Dyson technology to the world.
