Hardware
Experience in Power Electronics is a must - AC to DC SMPS power topologies like Full Bridge, Half Bridge, Fly-back, Forward, Push-Pull and DC-DC Converters.
Experience in circuit design using MOSFETs (Si and SiC), IGBTs, Thyristors, Rectifiers (Si and SiC), Power Management ICs (Gate Drivers, PWM Controllers, LDOs, Switching Regulators).
Experienced in design of complex analog, digital, and power multi-layer printed circuit boards for high density and high-parts count power supply applications (Charger, Power supply, DC-DC converter etc.).
Knowledgeable in switched-mode power supply PCB design constraints: spacing requirements for high voltages and PCB track sizing for high current; layout practices to mitigate EMI issues; mounting of heavy components such as magnetics, heatsinks, and bus bars.
Knowledgeable in electronics packaging and design for manufacturability to minimize cost and labour content.
Knowledge desirable in CAD modelling and simulation of PCB electrical and thermal characteristics.
Develop test cases, methodologies, tools, measurement systems required for testing and integrating different subsystem for larger system.
Expertise in the PCB design process is desirable: schematic capture, layout, generation of design files, BOMs, and release and revision control to ERP.
Expertise in the PCB layout process conforming to IPC standards and electrical and mechanical constraints of printed circuit board design, fabrication, and assembly.
Firmware
Experience in developing embedded systems for digitally controlled large power conversion systems.
Ability to perform software design, development, and verification tasks according to customer specific and platform specific requirements.
Ability to write simple, clean, maintainable, and testable C/C++ code for various software modules. Knowledge of version control tools like Git is desirable.
Should be proficient in developing software using embedded C/C++. Experience in software development using assembly language is a plus.
Should have good knowledge in developing real time applications on 8, 16, 32 bit RISC micro-controllers. Knowledge of MCUs based on C2000, MSP430 and ARM Cortex-M series is desirable.
Experience in writing software for interfaces such as CAN, SPI, I2C, and UART. Experience with CAN (SAE J1939) protocol and CAN analyser tools is desirable.
Ability to work on electronic boards for verifying correctness of written software as well as debugging and troubleshooting.
Ability to read electronic schematic diagrams to understand the specifications of target hardware platforms.
Ability to work closely with the systems and hardware teams to maximize efficiency in the software development process.
Experience in Power Electronics - DC-DC Converters, Fly-back, Forward, Full Bridge, Half Bridge, Push-Pull and other AC to DC SMPS power topologies.
Experience in design and implementing the control algorithms using hardware and software techniques.
Knowledge of IOT domain and application-level software development experience is a plus.
