Electrical Engineer (Power Electronics) | Remote

Summary: The Power Electronics Simulation Engineer role involves designing analog and power circuits, optimizing SPICE netlists, and executing simulations to evaluate performance metrics. The position requires strong expertise in power converter topologies and proficiency in SPICE simulation tools. The role is contract-based and offers flexible hours, allowing for a commitment of 10-40 hours per week. This position is fully remote, catering to candidates with a solid background in power electronics design.

Key Responsibilities:

• Design analog and power circuits based on detailed functional specifications.
• Select appropriate components using real-world datasheets and parametric data.
• Develop, modify, and optimize SPICE netlists using tools such as ngspice, Xyce, LTspice, or PSpice.
• Configure and execute simulations to evaluate ripple, efficiency, loop stability, and transient performance.
• Define and enforce quantitative pass/fail validation criteria across simulated designs.
• Iterate designs based on simulation feedback, optimizing for measurable electrical performance.
• Leverage vendor reference designs and SPICE models while understanding modeling assumptions and limitations.

Key Skills:

• Strong hands-on experience in analog or power electronics design.
• Strong expertise in power converter topologies (buck, boost, LDO, and related architectures).
• Advanced proficiency in SPICE simulation environments and netlist modeling.
• Demonstrated ability to analyze ripple, efficiency, loop stability, and transient response.
• Strong component selection capabilities using datasheets and vendor documentation.
• Solid understanding of control theory fundamentals and loop compensation techniques.
• Experience scripting and automating simulation testbenches.
