Power Electronics Engineer

Overview In this role you will design and mature power electronics for underwater maritime systems, including actuators, payloads for unmanned vehicles, and high-power transceivers. You will work within the Sensing and Communications Department to develop, test, and integrate high-voltage/high-power components and power systems for harsh environments. The position combines hands-on hardware with system-level integration in a small, innovative R&D setting. A strong focus on delivering reliable, high-performance power solutions drives this opportunity.
