Description and Requirements

About Our Team

Lenovo's Cloud Service Provider Group (CSP) is seeking a DC to DC Power Engineer for server product development. At Lenovo, we pride ourselves on delivering end-to-end solutions tailored to meet even the most unique customer demands.

Our CSP solutions are conceptualized, developed, and deployed worldwide, all within our in-house expertise.

Location: This position is based in Morrisville, NC.

What You'll Do

• Develop, qualify Racks/server infrastructure in cloud data center, include compute server, storage server, GPU server
• Design and validate power circuits such as driver, single and multi-phase DC-DC voltage regulators for in CPU/GPU server application
• Develop and introduce new power components such as power related IC, BJT/FET transistors, capacitor and inductor vendors for design optimization
• Apply rigorous design principal in function, performance, efficiency, metering accuracy, OV/OC/OP protections, power density, cost, reliability (redundancy), and manufacturability
• Lead technical investigations and issue resolution for production line and field issues
• Work closely with PCB designers to integrate power delivery systems into multi-layer board designs, ensuring proper component placement and routing for power integrity and signal integrity
• Collaborate with thermal engineers to optimize thermal performance and ensure efficient heat dissipation from power components, contributing to the overall thermal management strategy of the server
• Develop test plans and conduct rigorous testing of board-level power systems, including voltage regulation, transient response, efficiency, thermal performance, and EMI/EMC compliance
• Ensure smooth integration of board-level DC power systems with other server subsystems (CPUs, GPUs, memory, storage) by addressing load requirements, voltage sequencing, and power-up behavior

Basic Qualifications

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in electrical engineering, power electronics, or a related field
• Server experience or computer architecture experience
