XP Power

Full Job Description

Compensation: GBP 55,000 - GBP 60,000 - yearly
Take responsibility for the complete electronic design lifecycle, including schematic design, PCB layout, prototyping, verification, and transfer to manufacturing
Integrate AC/DC and DC/DC power supplies into larger electronic systems, ensuring correct functionality, performance, and compliance
Define power architectures, including distribution, protection, grounding, and system interfacing
Integrate and validate analogue control and monitoring signals, including voltage and current setpoints, feedback loops, sensing circuits, and signal conditioning
Interface with digital control and communication systems for power management, monitoring, and coordination
Implement and support communication via industry-standard protocols such as PMBus, CANopen, MODbus, and SCPI
Perform system-level analysis, including efficiency, stability, thermal performance, and fault conditions
Design schematics and support PCB layout activities, including reviews for signal integrity, EMC, thermal performance, and manufacturability
Conduct prototype bring-up, system integration, and debugging, including fault finding down to component level
Plan and support Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) testing, including pre-compliance validation and mitigation of issues
Apply thermal design principles to ensure reliable system operation across operating conditions
Produce and maintain technical documentation including system specifications, interface definitions, design records, and test procedures
Support manufacturing introduction, including design for manufacture (DFM), test, and production issue resolution
Support field issue resolution, including root cause analysis and corrective actions
Work collaboratively with multidisciplinary teams including mechanical, firmware, systems, and manufacturing engineers
Quality Management - look for ways to improve and promote quality; demonstrate accuracy and thoroughness.
Degree qualified (or equivalent experience) in Electronics Engineering or a related discipline
Strong background in analogue and digital electronics
Experience integrating AC/DC and DC/DC power supplies into system-level applications
Proven experience delivering designs across the full product lifecycle from concept through to manufacturing
Practical understanding of analogue signal interfacing, including voltage and current control, measurement, scaling, and noise mitigation
Experience working with digital control signals (e.g. TTL/logic-level I/O) and communication interfaces
Working knowledge of industry communication protocols such as PMBus, CANopen, MODbus, and SCPI for configuration, monitoring, and control
Understanding of power conversion principles and common topologies sufficient to support integration and troubleshooting
Knowledge of power distribution, grounding, and protection strategies
Experience with EMC principles, testing, and mitigation techniques
Understanding of thermal management and system-level heat dissipation
Strong fault-finding and troubleshooting skills at component level
Proficiency with laboratory equipment such as oscilloscopes, power analysers, electronic loads, and spectrum analysers
Knowledge of digital systems and control techniques (e.g. closed-loop control, PID concepts)
Experience with embedded systems or firmware-controlled power systems
Familiarity with system-level monitoring, diagnostics, and telemetry architectures
Experience with product certification and compliance (e.g. CE, UL, IEC standards)
Analytical and systems-oriented approach to engineering challenges
Strong attention to detail with a practical, hands-on mindset
Able to work independently while contributing effectively within a team
Good written and verbal communication skills
Comfortable managing multiple priorities in a dynamic environment
Planning/Organizing - prioritize and plan work activities; use time efficiently; set goals and objectives; develop realistic action plans.
Professionalism - approach others in a tactful manner; react well under pressure; treat others with respect and consideration regardless of their status or position; accept responsibility for own actions; follow through on commitments.
