Descrizione del lavoro

ABB in Bergamo, Italy, seeks a Senior Power Electronic Engineer for the SSCB Platform. This on-site role focuses on advanced SSCB design, simulations, and prototype development within an agile R&D team.

You will lead hardware development, perform thermal and loss analyses, and collaborate across disciplines to ensure timely delivery and compliance with standards. English communication is required.

Competenze

• Master's degree or PhD in Electrical Engineering or Electronic Engineering with a focus on Power Electronics.
• 5+ years of professional experience in power electronics design and development.
• Experience with power semiconductor devices (IGBTs, MOSFETs, SiC/GaN) and thermal/electrical characterization.
• Hands-on with thermal and electrical simulation tools such as PLECS, MATLAB/Simulink, LTspice, Ansys Maxwell, Icepak, or SIMetrix.
• Familiar with Altium Designer and PCB layout optimization.
• Ability to work in an agile R&D environment and communicate in English.

Mansioni

• Designing and developing advanced power electronic systems for Solid State Circuit Breakers, including semiconductor stacks, gate driver circuits, and protection schemes for DC applications.
• Conducting circuit-level and system-level simulations to evaluate SSCB performance across diverse operating scenarios, including fault conditions and transient events.
• Contributing to thermal analysis and power loss estimation to support the thermal design and long-term reliability of SSCB hardware.
• Selecting and qualifying power semiconductor devices and passive components, including collaboration with suppliers for technical validation.
• Leading prototype development activities: building hardware demonstrators, defining test plans, executing functional and safety validation, and analyzing results.
• Troubleshooting complex hardware and design issues during development and post-deployment phases, implementing effective corrective actions.
• Supporting PCB layout design using Altium Designer, with focus on insulation voltage, signal integrity, and EMC compliance.
• Preparing detailed technical documentation, design reports, and test procedures throughout the full product development lifecycle.
• Collaborating closely with mechanical and electronic engineers, layout designers, and testing teams to ensure integrated and timely delivery of development milestones.
• Sharing technical knowledge, best practices, and design guidelines with the broader engineering team.
• Driving the achievement of assigned targets (quality, time, scope, cost) while proactively identifying and addressing technical risks.
