Deine neue Herausforderung als Sr. Electrical Engineer – Power Electronics (m/f/d) bei Tesla in Freiburg

Tesla’s Power Electronics group is looking for a skilled and motivated electrical engineer to design and develop Power Electronics converter hardware intended to be used in Tesla energy products.

• Design and build hardware of power electronics converters for use in automotive and energy storage applications.

• Start to finish ownership of hardware – from specification to design, prototype, reliability validation and high-volume manufacturing.

• Collaborate with mechanical, PCB layout, and firmware engineering teams to successfully to design, validate and manufacture power converters.

• Architecture and modeling of new power converter topologies that achieve better performance.

• BS or MS in Electrical Engineering, or the equivalent in experience and evidence of exceptional ability.
• 4 or more years of relevant hands-on hardware experience in power converter (AC/DC, DC/DC & DC/AC) design.
• Strong understanding of power electronics topologies (AC/DC, DC/DC & DC/AC).
• Experience with high voltage power semiconductor selection (Si/SiC/GaN MOSFET’s, Diodes), gate drive and protection circuit design.
• Good understanding of switching waveforms, Semi-conductor losses and experience with loss modeling.
• Solid understanding of the theory and application of magnetics (inductors, transformers) and capacitors (Electrolytic, film and Ceramic) used for power conversion.
• Good experience with design analog/digital circuits and micro-processors.
• Familiar with schematic capture and power converter circuit simulation tools.
• Experience in supervision of PCB layout for minimal stray inductance and capacitance, placement strategies for better manufacturability, power/signal plane definition and EMC optimization.
• Proficiency with basic EE tools (Oscilloscopes, Network analyzers, Signal Generators etc.).
