    We are seeking a talented Electrical Engineer/Designer to join its innovative Engineering team! This organization is a leading player in the field of advanced manufacturing, specializing in the design and production of custom induction heating systems. If you are passionate about cutting-edge technologies and have a strong background in the design of induction power supplies, we invite you to apply for this exciting opportunity. As an Electrical Engineer/Designer, you will play a crucial role in the design, development, and optimization of induction power supply systems.

    Key Responsibilities & Duties:

    Design and Development:

    Conceptualize, design, and develop induction power supply systems based on project requirements.

    Conduct feasibility studies and simulations to optimize system performance and efficiency.

    Electromagnetics and Power Circuitry:

    Apply expertise in electromagnetics and electricity mechanics to design controls for new machines and induction power supplies.

    Work on power circuitry with a focus on voltage source and current source resonant frequency inverters.

    Micro-controllers and Circuit Design:

    Utilize embedded micro-controllers, frequency, and pulse width controls using mixed analog and digital techniques.

    Conduct PCB design and circuit simulation to optimize system performance.

    Semiconductor Devices and System Integration:

    Work with medium to large module size semiconductor devices such as SCRs, Diodes, Mosfets, and IGBTs. Calculate losses, appropriate snubber circuits, and water/convection cooling requirements for such devices.

    Testing and Validation:

    Implement testing protocols to validate the performance and reliability of induction power supply systems.

    Troubleshoot and resolve any issues identified during testing phases to the component level.

    Collaboration:

    Work closely with cross-functional teams, including electrical engineers, mechanical engineers, and product designers, to design induction power supply systems.

    Provide technical expertise and guidance during the product development lifecycle.

    Research and Innovation:
