Job description

Power Electronics Engineer

iRiS Recruiting Solutions

Newark, New Jersey, United States (On-site)

Tired of designing in simulation and never seeing your work leave the lab? This one’s different. iRiS Recruiting Solutions is running a confidential search for an 80-year-old, industry-leading power supply manufacturer — now backed by a global public parent — where engineers design real hardware end-to-end and watch it go into production in the same building. Here’s why engineers actually want this seat:

• You own it, start to finish. Schematic through EMC compliance, simulation through the lab bench. No hand-off to "someone else" for the parts that matter.
• Design and production sit side by side. The company’s manufacturing facility is owned and operated on-site — so the feedback loop between what you design and what actually gets built is short. No waiting months to find out if your design survives contact with reality.
• Your work shows up everywhere. Medical devices (lasers, MRI), semiconductor fabs, defense systems, broadcast, industrial equipment — this isn’t a niche product line, it’s power infrastructure the world quietly depends on.
• Room to grow into more ownership. This is a company that has been building power supplies for 80 years and is still investing in its people — a great next step for someone who wants their design responsibility to keep expanding, not plateau.
• Small-company feel, global backing. A few hundred people across engineering, manufacturing, and sales — big enough to matter, small enough that your work doesn’t disappear into a bureaucracy.

If you’re a power electronics engineer and you want to actually build things instead of just modeling them — let’s talk.
