POWER ELECTRONICS DESIGN ENGINEER | New South Wales, Australia (Hybrid)

Take what you know in Power Electronics and make it much bigger...

VFDs, Soft Starters, Switchgear & High Current

State-of-the-Art Facility

We are looking for an experienced Power Electronics Design Engineer with a strong professional baseline in AC-side / mains power electronics and industrial products.

You need credible hands-on design capability across power stages, switching, protection, sensing, AC systems and motors, and you need to be able to explain clearly what you personally designed and delivered.

But you do not need to have done everything we do.

That is the prospect...

To join an established Australian design and manufacturing operation backed by a major global industrial group and widen your engineering repertoire across:

AC power electronics

VFDs and motor drives

soft starters and motor starting

switchgear and industrial switching

embedded motor-control products

protection and sensing

motors, compressors and rotating equipment

You will apply that capability to new product design, customer‑specific product customisation and major product redesigns / overhauls.

And you will do it across a broad range of markets:

industrial | residential | marine | caravans & RVs | off‑road | off‑grid | electric vehicles

These are commercial products used every day by people around the world.

The design challenge...

This is fundamentally a Power Electronics designer role.

defining a new product architecture

selecting a topology

designing or modifying a power stage

specifying switching devices

developing gate‑drive, sensing or protection circuitry

designing or reviewing high‑current PCB layouts

adapting an existing product for a new application or customer

solving thermal, EMC or reliability problems

redesigning ageing or underperforming products





taking designs through prototype, validation and release

You should have professional experience with AC electrical systems, mains‑side power electronics and motors, together with strong fundamentals across several areas such as:

SCRs / TRIACs / MOSFETs / IGBTs / SiC

AC‑DC / DC‑AC conversion

three‑phase systems

motor control

current and voltage sensing

protection

thermal design and derating

EMC / EMI

isolation, creepage and clearance

prototype bring‑up and fault diagnosis

Move beyond a narrow product or technology niche...

The business has more than 20 years of motor‑control know‑how, products operating globally, and the backing of an established international industrial group

Plus... a relatively new, purpose‑built 2,500 m² advanced engineering and manufacturing facility, bringing R&D;, electronics, firmware, mechanical engineering, testing and production together under one roof.

The product footprint already spans millions of end products worldwide, with strong positions across residential HVAC, marine, RV, industrial and off‑grid applications.

The next stage includes further development across VFDs, motor control, new product lines, product customisation and local manufacturing capability.

You can arrive as an accomplished Power Electronics Engineer and still have a great deal to learn, design and master.

What we want to see...

Tell us:

where you have worked

what products or systems you worked on

the AC, motor and power levels involved

what you personally designed

what new products, customisations or redesigns you contributed to

what technical problems you solved

what reached prototype, production or commercial release

If you have the senior‑level Power Electronics foundations and want a long‑term design role where your technical repertoire can keep expanding,
