Electrical Engineer - R&D

Astrodyne TDI is seeking a motivated R&D Electrical Engineer who is excited about power electronics, digital control, and turning innovative concepts into working hardware. This hands-on role contributes to advanced switch-mode power supplies, digital control systems, and high-performance power conversion technologies. The engineer will work across simulation, circuit design, embedded firmware, prototyping, laboratory validation, troubleshooting, and cross-functional production support.

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering required; a master's degree in Electrical Engineering or Power Electronics is a plus.
• 2-5 years of hands-on experience in switch-mode power supply design, power electronics, and/or digital control.
• Practical experience with Texas Instruments C2000 microcontrollers, Code Composer Studio, and C2000Ware.
• Solid understanding of classical and digital control concepts, including peak current mode, average current mode, and voltage mode control.
• Experience modeling power converters and closed-loop control systems using SIMPLIS, SIMetrix, QSpice, or comparable tools.
• Familiarity with high-frequency magnetic components, including inductors and transformers.
• Understanding of PCB layout considerations for high-frequency power electronics.
• Strong laboratory troubleshooting, analytical, and problem-solving skills.
• Ability to communicate technical concepts effectively and collaborate in a cross-functional engineering environment.
• Experience with SiC and/or GaN wide-bandgap semiconductors.
• Experience with high-voltage power-conversion topologies.
• Proficiency with Cadence OrCAD Capture, Allegro PCB Editor, or comparable schematic and PCB tools.
• Familiarity with hardware-in-the-loop testing or rapid-prototyping platforms.
• Experience with EMI/EMC testing and troubleshooting.
• Experience developing power supplies for regulated, safety-critical, medical, aerospace, or defense applications.

• Astrodyne TDI develops power technologies and products that people depend on to enhance, protect, and save lives. With more than 60 years of power supply design experience, our technology supports demanding industrial, semiconductor, medical, aerospace, defense, and other critical-market applications.
• Hands-on innovation: Turn advanced power-electronics and digital-control concepts into working hardware.
• Complete development cycle: Work across simulation, architecture, circuit design, embedded firmware, prototyping, laboratory testing, and production readiness.
• Advanced technologies: Gain exposure to digital power control, high-performance conversion topologies, and SiC and GaN devices.
• Technical collaboration: Solve complex real-world problems alongside experienced engineers who value curiosity and teamwork.
• $95,000-$120,000 annually. Final compensation will be based on relevant experience, qualifications, skills, and other business considerations.
• Astrodyne TDI offers a comprehensive benefits package designed to support employees' health, financial well-being, and overall quality of life.
