Sr. Staff Power Module Design Engineer

Responsibilities

• Design high-current, high-density power modules for CPU/GPU/xPU core power and AI server power delivery applications
• Collaborate with package engineers and IC designers to develop advanced packaging solutions integrating ICs, inductors, and capacitors
• Conduct PDN extraction for module packages to assess power path losses and switch-node ringing
• Design inductors per module and silicon pinmap, working with vendors to bring concept designs to production
• Build and run module thermal models to ensure components remain within maximum operating temperatures
• Work with validation teams to debug power modules and perform bench characterization for efficiency, thermal, and transient performance
• Support design-for-manufacturing (DFM) and design-for-test (DFT) activities

Requirements

• BSEE or MSEE with 5+ years of hands-on power electronics design experience
• Strong experience designing high-current, high-frequency DC-DC converters, specifically multiphase buck architectures
• Hands-on experience in PCB layout for high-current-density and high-frequency applications
• Proficiency with design and simulation tools including Cadence, Altium Designer, SIMPLIS, and SIMetrix
• Experience with PDN extraction and magnetic design tools such as Q3D, PowerSI, or Maxwell
• Proven ability to debug complex power circuits through lab measurement and root-cause analysis

Preferred Qualifications

• Direct experience designing power modules, VRMs, or highly integrated power solutions
• Experience with thermal simulation tools like Flotherm or Icepak
