The Role
Lead GaN device testing, characterization, and gate-drive optimization. Design and validate evaluation PCBs, perform device- and system-level simulations, produce application notes, and provide technical enablement. Collaborate across R&D, marketing, quality, and operations to support customer programs and product development.
Summary Generated by Built In
  • Perform direct high-voltage/low voltage GaN device testing and characterization, including double pulse testing (DPT), short-circuit testing, SOA, ruggedness, and device performance evaluation of GaN devices.
  • Define and optimize gate-drive solutions, including gate resistance selection, protection features, and isolation strategies.
  • Design, build, and validate Evaluation (EVAL) boards for customer enablement and internal demonstration.
  • Develop high-quality Application Notes, design guides, and technical documentation for customers and internal teams.
  • Better to have certain understanding of AI data center power architectures, including front-end AC/DC and back-end DC/DC stages and high-voltage DC distribution.
  • Better to have some understanding of advanced power topologies such as totem-pole and interleaved PFC, LLC resonant converters, Dual Active Bridge (DAB), etc.
  • Perform device- and system-level simulations using LTspice/SIMetrix/PLECS.
  • Conduct hands-on lab work using oscilloscopes, high-voltage probes, power analyzers, electronic loads, and other high-voltage test equipment.
  • Provide technical enablement to FAEs and sales teams.
  • Collaborate with R&D, product marketing, quality, and operations teams to support customer programs and product development.
Qualifications
  • 4~7 years of hands-on experience in power electronics design and applications.
