About the Role

Seeking an experienced System Architect to define and drive end-to-end architectures for energy generation, storage, and power conversion systems. This role involves designing scalable, efficient, and reliable energy system solutions, bridging energy market requirements with semiconductor and power electronic capabilities to deliver next-generation energy infrastructure.

Responsibilities

Define complete energy system architectures, including grid connection and protection schemes (MV/LV), AC/DC and DC/DC power conversion topologies (PFC, LLC, PSFB, bidirectional converters), battery energy storage systems (BESS) including battery management systems (BMS), and microgrid control, islanding, and black start capabilities.
Design distributed energy systems integrating solar PV, wind turbines, fuel cells, and other renewable sources.
Ensure grid code compliance, safety, and reliability for energy generation and storage systems.
Architect bidirectional energy flows for charging/discharging storage systems and integrating them into local grids.
Optimize system-level efficiency, power density, thermal performance, and lifetime reliability.
Support development of solid-state transformer-based systems for high-efficiency energy transfer.
Provide system requirement documents (SRDs), reference designs, and evaluation platforms for energy applications.
Collaborate with utility operators, renewable developers, and storage OEMs to co-develop innovative power systems.
Track emerging standards, grid codes, and sustainability regulations across key markets.
Guide internal product teams, power IC designers, controls engineers, and thermal/mechanical experts to build fully integrated solutions.
Contribute to technical roadmaps and strategic positioning in energy generation and storage markets.
Engage with universities, startups, and consortia on next-generation power and energy technologies.

Requirements

Master’s or Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering, Power Electronics, or related field.
8+ years of experience in energy generation, storage, and power conversion systems.
Deep expertise in AC/DC and DC/DC power topologies (PFC, LLC, PSFB, bidirectional).
Deep expertise in MV/LV power distribution architectures and protection.
Deep expertise in Battery energy storage systems (BESS) and battery management.
Knowledge of grid codes, interconnection standards, and renewable integration requirements.
Experience in system-level modeling/simulation (PLECS, SPICE, MATLAB/Simulink, CFD).
Strong stakeholder alignment and cross-functional communication skill.
