*We are seeking a Hardware Engineer to take ownership of the full product lifecycle—from concept through validation—ensuring compliance with automotive standards, as well as high reliability and performance. This is a newly created position in a rapidly growing and innovative market, offering the opportunity to work on projects involving completely new technologies for electric and hybrid vehicles. The role involves close collaboration with cross-functional teams to develop forward-thinking solutions for next-generation mobility. Key responsibilities include the design and development of high-voltage BLDC motor controllers for automotive cooling fan applications.*
**Your Responsibilities**
- Develop high-voltage BLDC motor controllers, including schematic capture, PCB layout, and component selection (MOSFETs, IGBTs, gate drivers, capacitors)
- Optimize designs for efficiency, thermal management, and EMI/EMC compliance
- Run simulations to assess circuit behaviour and thermal performance (SPICE, MATLAB / Simulink)
- Lead the activities for building samples and prototypes before the start of serial production; define testing requirements to validate the prototype
- Prototype testing using oscilloscopes, power analysers, and environmental chambers
- Conduct EMI/EMC testing and troubleshoot issues
- Validate designs according to automotive standards (ISO 26262, AEC-Q100/101)
- Produce final documentation for PCBA production (BOM - schematic - Gerber file - component specification)
- Collaborate with our international team of engineers
**Your Profile**
- BSc or MSc degree in Electrical / Electronic Engineering or related
- Ideally more than 3 years of relevant experience in automotive industry
- Previous working experience with High Voltage power electronics (specifically automotive BLDC motor controllers) is mandatory
