POWER ELECTRONICS MODELLING ENGINEER

Skills, experience, and qualifications :

Essential :

• The candidate should demonstrate an in-depth level of knowledge and understanding of electronic components & principles
• Develop behavioural and physics-based models of power electronic components (e.g., converters, inverters, filters, magnetics, semiconductors).
• Develop and validate models of automotive power electronic systems including onboard chargers, DC-DC converters, traction inverters, and battery management systems.
• Perform system-level simulations using tools such as MATLAB / Simulink, PLECS, PSIM, LTspice, or equivalent.
• Collaborate with design engineers to validate models against hardware measurements and refine models accordingly.
• Document modelling methodologies, assumptions, and validation results.
• Contribute to design reviews and provide insights based on simulation results.
• Stay updated with the latest modelling techniques, simulation tools, and industry trends.
• Collaborate with hardware and control teams to integrate models into real-time simulation platforms (e.g., dSPACE, OPAL-RT, Typhoon HIL).
• Analyse thermal, electrical, and EMI / EMC behaviour of power systems under automotive operating conditions.
• Support model-based design workflows and contribute to digital twin development for predictive diagnostics and performance optimization.
• Document modelling methodologies, validation procedures, and simulation results for internal and customer-facing reports.
• Stay updated with automotive standards (ISO 26262, ASPICE) and ensure compliance in modelling practices
• Support control algorithm development and integration through co-simulation environments
