Power Supply Design
-
Design and optimize AC-DC and DC-DC power supplies, including linear and switching topologies.
-
Perform schematic capture, simulation, component selection, and PCB layout review.
-
Address efficiency, thermal performance, EMI/EMC, safety, and reliability requirements.
-
Support compliance testing (UL, CE, FCC, etc.)
-
Audio Amplifier Design
-
Design and develop audio amplifier circuits (Class A, AB, D, or hybrid).
-
Optimize audio performance: THD+N, SNR, frequency response, stability, and efficiency.
-
Select and evaluate audio ICs, power devices, magnetics, and passive components.
-
Troubleshoot noise, distortion, grounding, and layout-related issues.
- Prototyping & Validation
-
Build and test prototypes; develop test plans and validation procedures.
-
Use lab equipment (oscilloscopes, audio analyzers, spectrum analyzers, loads).
-
Perform root-cause analysis and drive corrective actions.
- Cross-Functional Collaboration
-
Work closely with mechanical, firmware, manufacturing, and quality teams.
-
Support design for manufacturability (DFM), test (DFT), and cost optimization.
-
Assist with production bring-up and field issue resolution.
ESSENTIAL TASKS
-
Provides support for customer problems/complaints. This could be in-house, telephone, modem, on site, etc.
-
Prepare project cost and work-time estimates.
-
Review existing electrical engineering criteria to identify necessary revisions, deletions or amendments to outdated material.
-
Plan method and sequence of operations for developing and testing experimental electronic and electrical equipment.
-
Proficiency in the use of electronic test equipment, comprehensive understanding of electronic circuitry theory.
-
