Job Title: Power Electronics Reliability Engineer
Location: Franksville WI
Duration: Long Term
Client: Unico
Job Description:
The Client is looking for a Power Electronics Reliability Engineer with hands-on experience performing DFMEA and MTBF analysis on power electronics products. This is much more of a reliability-focused role than a traditional validation or test engineering position. 5+ years of experience. Needs demonstrated power electronics experience not HIL or software test.
Key Requirements:
Experience leading or performing DFMEA (Design Failure Mode & Effects Analysis) on power electronics products.
Experience developing MTBF/MTTF reliability calculations and models.
Ability to review power electronics designs and identify potential failure modes and downstream impacts.
Strong understanding of power electronic components including:
Silicon carbide (SiC) MOSFETs
IGBTs
Capacitors
Resistors
Gate drive circuits
Ability to analyze what happens when components fail (shorts, opens, over-current, over-voltage, thermal events, noise susceptibility, etc.).
Comfortable reviewing schematics, component datasheets, and stress/derating conditions to identify reliability risks before product release.
Examples of the Type of Experience Needed:
Determining what happens if a SiC MOSFET or IGBT shorts and understanding the impact on downstream components.
Identifying scenarios where excessive current through a resistor could create a thermal or fire risk.
Evaluating capacitor voltage stress, electrical noise susceptibility, and other reliability concerns.
Using DFMEA findings to drive design improvements and validation testing.
Additional Experience Desired:
Power conversion products such as drives, inverters, DC/DC converters, motor controls, or similar power electronics systems.
Reliability testing, validation, root cause analysis, and field failure investigations.
Experience with standards-based reliability methods (MIL-HDBK-217, Telcordia, Physics-of-Failure, etc.).
Target Candidate: Someone who has spent years performing DFMEA and MTBF analysis on power electronics hardware and can quickly identify failure mechanisms, component stress issues, and reliability risks within a design.
