About this role
Role overview This senior applications engineering role provides hands-on technical support to customers and a regional field team working on power systems. You’ll evaluate integrated circuits in the lab, develop and validate system designs, and investigate customer issues to identify root causes. Findings also inform technical resources, training, and future product development.
Responsibilities - Design and validate system solutions, evaluation boards, and customer-specific designs for power applications. - Reproduce customer failures in the lab, assess their system-level causes, and recommend corrective actions. - Advise customers and field engineers on efficiency, thermal, transient, and electromagnetic compatibility requirements. - Review schematics and board layouts, respond to simulation requests, and serve as an escalation resource for field application engineers. - Assess market needs and competing solutions, then share customer and lab insights with product teams. - Prepare technical guidance and deliver training, seminars, or webinars for field teams, distributors, and customers.
Requirements - Bachelor’s or master’s degree in electronics or electrical engineering. - At least five years of hands-on power supply design experience, such as DC/DC converters, power management ICs, or power modules, or equivalent power applications engineering experience. - Strong practical lab skills, including use of oscilloscopes, electronic loads, loop or network analyzers, thermal cameras, and EMC pre-compliance equipment. - Experience with SPICE or SIMPLIS circuit simulation and reviewing power circuit board layouts. - Fluent written and spoken English, with clear technical writing, presentation, and customer communication skills. - Willingness to travel occasionally for customer visits, training, and trade shows.
Nice to have - Knowledge of EMC design and test standards; automotive experience, including CISPR 25 or AEC-Q100, is an advantage.
Benefits and work setup - Based in Timișoara, Ettenheim, or Munich.
