Senior Power Electronics Engineer in London

Job Description

Senior Power Electronics Engineer - Grid-Connected Inverters

We're working with a business pushing the boundaries of grid technology, and they're looking to hire a Senior Power Electronics Engineer to join their team. If you know your way around grid-connected inverter design and want to be properly hands-on from simulation through to prototype and validation, this one's worth a look.

As a Senior Power Electronics Engineer, you’ll be joining live projects from day one, working alongside mechanical, control and software engineers to get real hardware out the door. This isn't a role where you'll be stuck behind a desk producing reports nobody reads, you'll be designing, testing, debugging, and helping shape how the product actually performs in the field.

What you'll be doing

Designing and developing power converters and controllers for grid-connected applications, including DC-DC/AC-DC systems and mixed-signal circuits (ADCs, PWM controllers). You'll get stuck into PCB layout work with a real focus on signal integrity, interfacing power stages with transformers, digital controllers, filters and electromechanical systems. There's also a thermal and EMI/EMC compliance angle to the role, plus root-cause debugging across prototype and production. Expect to write up specs, test reports and manuals along the way, and to work to real deadlines alongside a genuinely cross-functional team.

What you'll bring

A degree in Electrical/Electronics Engineering (or equivalent), and solid, ideally high-power, experience designing power electronics. You'll be comfortable with circuit modelling and simulation tools like SPICE, Altium and MATLAB, know your way around a PCB from design through to testing, and have real lab and site testing experience with kit like oscilloscopes, power analysers and grid emulators. Some exposure to designing for large-scale manufacture would help, as would a willingness to travel occasionally for testing and commissioning.

Nice to have:

experience with AC/DC, DC/AC or DC/DC converters specifically, low-noise mixed-signal design, EMC/EMI standards work, UL/TÜV certification experience, and PCB

soldering/rework skills.
