The role combines product measurements, test-hardware integration, troubleshooting, data review, and safe laboratory operation.


Responsibilities include, but are not limited to:

  • Characterize power hardware: Test DC-DC converters, power modules, and semiconductor devices using power supplies, electronic loads, oscilloscopes, current probes, and temperature measurements.
  • Evaluate performance: Interpret switching waveforms, voltage and current behavior, efficiency, transient response, regulation, and temperature; identify product, measurement, or setup issues.
  • Develop test setups: Select measurement methods and adapt fixtures, wiring, sensing, and instrumentation for new product requirements.
  • Support qualification: Run electrical and thermal derating and automated power-cycling tests; verify conditions, monitor tests, investigate anomalies, troubleshoot hardware, and document results.

Minimum Qualifications:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field.
  • Knowledge of switching converters, electrical measurements, transient behavior, and thermal performance.
  • Hands-on experience with power-electronics hardware and instruments such as oscilloscopes, multimeters, power supplies, electronic loads, probes, sensors, or data acquisition equipment. Relevant academic, project, internship, or professional experience may qualify.
  • Ability to read schematics, assemble or modify test hardware, interpret measurements, and troubleshoot product behavior and test setups during late-stage bring-up.
  • Ability to analyze results, document findings, and communicate clearly.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Experience testing power semiconductor devices, DC-DC converters, power modules, or uModule products.
  • Experience monitoring extended automated characterization or qualification tests.
  • Familiarity with Allegro, Altium Designer, or similar PCB tools for new or modified test hardware.
  • Experience designing test fixtures, wiring harnesses, or custom hardware interfaces.
  • Familiarity with automated test equipment and data acquisition systems.
