Job description

We are Generac, a leading energy technology company committed to powering a smarter world. Over the 60 plus years of Generac’s history, we’ve been dedicated to energy innovation. From creating the home standby generator market category, to our current evolution into an energy technology solutions company, we continue to push new boundaries. Generac Energy Technologies is seeking a Senior Electrical Components Engineer to join our growing Generac home team. This role is responsible for ensuring the selection, quality, reliability, and performance of electronic components used across Generac’s energy products. The successful candidate will work with electrical design team and support in component selection, their in‑circuit performance verification, lead supplier qualification activities, and manage the technical aspects of assigning electronic commodities. This includes conducting process audits, driving root cause analysis, and resolving supplier‑related quality issues. This position requires a strong passion for delivering high‑quality, defect‑free components and subassemblies, ensuring they meet design specifications and support the reliable manufacture of final assemblies. Up to 30/40% travel may be required for this role.

NOTE: Candidate must be flexible with workhours to collaborate with team in USA

This position is based on one of the following locations: Pune, India

Major Responsibilities

• Participate in design reviews with the electrical engineering team, contributing to the development and validation of electrical systems, including schematics, PCB layouts, and wiring diagrams for solar and battery energy storage applications.
• Utilize circuit simulation tools such as LTspice to analyze and validate designs, ensuring component selection meets performance, reliability, and regulatory requirements.
• Own qualification and technical evaluation of electronic components, including MOSFETs, PCBs, magnetics (wound components), discrete analog/digital components, relays, ICs, and interconnects (cables and connectors).
• Experience with magnetics design such as transformers, inductors and chokes with knowledge of analyzing core materials, winding configurations and losses.
• Apply strong expertise in power electronics, including high‑frequency AC–DC, DC–AC, and DC–DC conversion topologies.
• Analyze and interpret component datasheets to support optimal part selection, performance, and reliability.
• Serve as a key contributor in electrical design reviews, ensuring component reliability and alignment with system requirements.
• Review engineering drawings and specifications to verify quality requirements; identify and communicate gaps, risks, and improvement opportunities.
• Identify CTQ components within BOMs and manage PPAP activities with suppliers to ensure component quality, reliability, and compliance requirements are met.
• Apply 8D problem‑solving methodologies to investigate component issues, conduct root cause analysis, and issue SCARs to suppliers to drive effective corrective actions and prevent recurrence.
• Conduct electrical and electronic component supplier process audits across domestic and South Asian locations, evaluating manufacturing processes, quality controls, testing, process capability, and corrective actions.
• Partner with Engineering, Manufacturing, Supply Chain, Quality, and Reliability teams to resolve component issues and support new product development, qualification, and production readiness.
