• Technical Stewardship: Direct the design and development of SMPS, DC-DC Converters, batt.chargers and LED Drivers. You will be the final authority on topology selection and circuit architecture.

• Mentorship & Growth: Lead and upskill a high-performing engineering team. You will set the standards for PCB layout typically (EMI-EMC), component selection, and design discipline.

• Standards Advocacy: Spearhead the company’s compliance with Global Regulatory Standards. You will oversee EMI/EMC testing strategies to ensure "First-Time-Right" certification.

• Project Governance: Translate business goals into technical milestones. You will manage the R&D budget, project timelines, and cross-functional coordination with manufacturing and quality teams.

• Continuous Innovation: Keep the organization ahead of the curve by integrating emerging technologies in microcontrollers, embedded systems, and thermal management.

Key Responsibilities

• Design & development of SMPS / DC-DC converters (1501000W range)
• Topology selection (Flyback, Forward, LLC, Half/Full Bridge/PSFB,PFC)
• Magnetics design, thermal design & efficiency optimization
• Component selection & derating (MOSFETs, controllers, transformers)
• EMI/EMC design & compliance (CISPR, IEC standards)
• PCB layout guidance (high-frequency, low-noise design)
• Testing, validation & reliability improvements
• Vendor coordination & cost optimization

Core Technical Competencies

• Power Mastery: Expert-level knowledge of high-power SMPS (up to 1kW), battery charging algorithms, and magnetics design.

• EMI/EMC Engineering: Advanced expertise in identifying and mitigating electromagnetic interference at the design stage.

• Tool Command: Proficiency in OrCAD, Altium, or equivalent high-end EDA tools to guide design team members,

• Validation Excellence: Proven ability to establish rigorous stress-testing and reliability protocols for mission-critical power supplies.

Qualifications & Requirements

• Academic: B.Tech/M.Tech in Electronics or Electrical Engineering.

• Experience: 6–10 years of solid R&D experience, with at least 3+ years in a leadership or decision-making role within the power electronics industry.

• Soft Skills: Exceptional communication skills to bridge the gap between complex engineering concepts and executive-level strategy.

Minimum Skills & Experience

• 6-10 years in Power Electronics R&D
• Strong hands-on experience in SMPS , Batt Chargers & DC-DC designs
• Expertise in magnetics, control loops, and stability analysis
• Experience with tools: LTspice / PLECS / MATLAB (preferred)
• Knowledge of safety & compliance standards (IEC/BIS)
• Strong debugging & problem-solving skills
• Exposure to mass production support & DFM is a plus
