About the Role

The Company is seeking a Head of Power Electronics to take on a pivotal role in the development of small modular turbines designed to meet the increasing power demands of data centers and distributed energy industries. The successful candidate will be responsible for owning high-voltage power electronics, with a focus on high-voltage DC systems. This includes specifying and integrating the motor/generator and associated power electronics, as well as evaluating and selecting suppliers for key components. The role also involves hands-on work with hardware through the prototype and testing phases, and a long-term goal of bringing currently outsourced capabilities in-house. Applicants for the Head of Power Electronics position at the company should have a minimum of 4 years' of power electronics experience, with a strong background in high-voltage power electronics. Hands-on experience with motor and electric machines is essential, as is familiarity with GaN and/or SiC MOSFETs and wide-bandgap semiconductors. The ideal candidate will have a proven track record of physically building, wiring, integrating, or testing hardware, and experience in taking hardware through to the prototype stage. The role requires the ability to operate independently, make key technical decisions, and have a background in supplier and component evaluation and selection. Some crossover with software and control systems is also expected.
