RESEARCH ENGINEER - SR. RESEARCH ENGINEER - Power Systems

15-01703

Who We Are :

As a recognized leader in space science research and spacecraft instrumentation, avionics, and electronics, we are helping to reveal the secrets of our solar system and the universe. This position will design power converters / systems for space instruments.

Objectives of this Role :

  • Lead the design, development, and testing of advanced electronics for space applications, with an emphasis on high voltage systems.
  • Participate in mission and instrumentation planning and development for future space missions, particularly those requiring high voltage power supplies and pulser systems.
  • Collaborate across interdisciplinary teams within SwRI to deliver innovative, flight-ready electronics and subsystems for scientific instrumentation.

Daily and Monthly Responsibilities :

  • Design, develop, and test high voltage electronic systems, including power supplies, transformers, and magnetic components.
  • Support the development of high voltage and low voltage power electronics for upcoming missions.
  • Conduct circuit simulation and analysis to ensure performance and reliability of designs.
  • Perform system-level analysis, parts stress and worst-case analysis of power electronic designs.
  • Prepare and maintain detailed documentation of designs and test results and work closely with manufacturing teams to support the assembly and testing of custom electronics.
  • Requirements :

  • Requires a Bachelors degree in Electrical Engineering. Master's degree preferred.
  • 3 years : Proven experience in high-voltage, space-qualified power electronics, including design, analysis, screening, and environmental testing.
  • Proficiency in circuit simulation and analysis (e.g., LTSpice, TopSpice). Experience with electromagnetic field modeling (FEMM) is highly desirable.
  • Experience with flight / mil-spec EEE parts selection, parts stress derating analysis, and worst-case analysis (WCA). Practical knowledge of magnetics design, fabrication, and characterization.
  • A valid / clear driver's license is required.
  • Special Requirements :

    Must be a U.S. person (i.e., U.S. citizen, non-U.S. citizen national, lawful permanent resident, asylee, or refugee) due to ITAR work in section.
