Job Description
You will be part of Electrical Engineering development team to develop embedded power supply in our Next Generation Programmable Logic Controller products.
You will play a key role in power supply development from concept, architecture, requirements definition, power budgeting, design/implementation of circuits, troubleshooting of designs, functional safety impact assessment, product verification and certification testing, and release to production.
Key Qualifications
• Master/ Bachelor’s degree in electrical/power engineering.
• 10+ years of experience design and test of power supply circuits and printed circuit boards for hardware systems, with expertise in isolated and non-isolated power supply design.
• Experience developing electronic hardware systems that meet product certification requirements, such as UL, CE, or IEC 61010.
• Proven track records in AC-DC & DC-DC power design related activities and knowledge. In depth knowledge on power supply topologies, e.g. Sepic, buck, boost, flyback etc and different compensation techniques. Determine which of these topologies best suits the needs based on given product requirements.
-
Strong in design calculations and simulation data for energy, thermal, power efficiency based on selected design concept.
-
Different types of transformer design, specification, and materials.
-
Working knowledge on the characteristics of magnetics (including inductor/transformer modeling), magnetization inductance, magnetization current, leakage inductance, intra-winding and inter-winding capacitance, self-resonant frequency, characteristics and limitations of magnetic cores, core saturation, core loss, high frequency losses, core reset, winding techniques for optimization of desired magnetics, and design of current transformers.
-
Experience in schematic design, modelling / simulation tool and equipment for power converter design and various techniques of protection.
-
Demonstrated skills in the hardware development process, including circuit simulation & design, component de-rating, hardware debug & release.
-
Ability to work with supplier(s) to discuss requirements, testing method, identification of issues and resolutions.
• Ability to lead, communicate and engage solutions with cross functional teams to find solutions.
• Ability to achieve targets while working on multiple projects simultaneously.
Minimum Qualifications
• Master/ Bachelor’s degree in electrical/power engineering.
• Preferable to have experience designing electronic hardware systems that meet functional safety standards (e.g., IEC 61508 and/or SIL2/SIL3)
Meticulous and diligent in technical documentation and report writing.
Rockwell Automation’s hybrid policy aligns that employees are expected to work at a Rockwell location at least Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays unless they have a business obligation out of the office.
