Senior Engineer, Systems Applications - Power Solutions

Analog Devices is seeking a Senior Engineer, Systems Applications to join the Power Solutions group and support ADI's transition from component-level power selling to system-level power solution development across strategic growth applications.

The Power Solutions group works across product lines, systems engineering, applications, marketing, field teams, and customers to define scalable power architectures, reference solutions, and platform strategies for high-growth domains including robotics, industrial automation, instrumentation, test, energy infrastructure, and other intelligent edge systems.

The successful candidate will work as a power systems applications engineer, translating customer application requirements into practical power trees, solution concepts, evaluation plans, reference design inputs, and product feedback. This role requires strong technical capability in power electronics and system-level design, the ability to engage effectively with customers and field teams, and the judgement to connect application requirements to ADI portfolio solutions, design-in activity, and customer success. The candidate will operate as an individual contributor, working under guidance from senior architects and technical leaders while taking ownership of defined applications, customer engagements, technical deliverables, and cross-functional execution tasks.

JOB SCOPE

• Market focus: Power architectures for growth applications including Healthcare, Aerospace & Defence, Instrumentation, and Communication systems.
• Territory focus: Worldwide, with direct engagement across strategic customers, field teams, product lines, and ecosystem partners.
• Functionality: Support, develop, and validate system-level power solutions that convert customer problems into ADI reference designs, application collateral, product feedback, and business opportunities.

Principal Responsibilities

• Contribute to end-to-end power architectures for priority applications, including power conversion, distribution, protection, isolation, sequencing, telemetry, monitoring, energy efficiency, thermal constraints, EMI/EMC, reliability, and system control considerations.
• Translate customer and market requirements into system-level inputs for solution proposals, power trees, reference architectures, evaluation concepts, technical trade-off analyses, and product feedback.
• Support architecture and application reviews for strategic opportunities, ensuring proposed solutions are technically credible, practical, differentiated, manufacturable, supportable, and aligned with ADI portfolio direction.
• Partner with product line management, systems engineering, applications, marketing, business development, sales, and field applications teams to identify technical requirements, solution gaps, and opportunities for improved customer support.
• Engage directly with customers and field teams to understand application requirements, support design decisions, resolve technical questions, and position ADI power solutions effectively.
• Create reusable technical collateral including power trees, design guides, simulation examples, evaluation concepts, reference design inputs, training material, and customer-facing presentations.
• Capture lessons learned from customer engagements, evaluations, competitive activity, and design‑in support, and feed those insights back into applications work, product planning, solution strategy, and field enablement.
• Support reusable platform frameworks, reference solution approaches, and application guidance that help scale power solution capability across multiple customer and market needs.
• Share technical knowledge with applications, systems engineering, field teams, and product organisations to improve system-level power understanding and customer support capability.
• Communicate technical findings, design trade-offs, and application impact clearly to engineering stakeholders, field teams, product teams, and customers through written documentation, technical reviews, workshops, and presentations.

CANDIDATE CREDENTIALS

• BSEE required; MSEE, PhD, or equivalent advanced experience in power electronics, electrical engineering, systems engineering, or related fields preferred.
• Typically 5+ years of relevant experience in power systems, power management ICs, power modules, applications engineering, system engineering, or semiconductor solution development.
• Strong technical understanding of power conversion, power distribution, protection, isolation, thermal trade-offs, transient response, EMI/EMC, reliability, safety considerations, and system-level design constraints.
• Experience in one or more strategic growth domains such as Healthcare, Aerospace & Defence, Instrumentation, and Communication is desirable where it demonstrates transferable applications or system design capability.
• Demonstrated ability to collaborate effectively across cross-functional teams, manage defined technical deliverables, and operate with the independence, judgement, and execution discipline expected of a Senior Engineer.
• Strong customer-facing communication skills, with the ability to explain technical trade-offs clearly and connect them to architecture decisions, product implications, and customer outcomes.
• Excellent written communication, technical documentation, presentation, and cross-functional collaboration skills.
• Solution-focused mindset with the ability to connect customer requirements, technical trade-offs, portfolio capabilities, competitive dynamics, and practical solution recommendations.
• Self-motivated, accountable, and comfortable operating in customer-facing and cross-functional environments where technical clarity, follow-through, and practical problem solving are required.
