Senior Engineer – Power Magnetics & Module Design (m/f/d)

Your mission

As a Senior Power Magnetics & Module Design Engineer, you will be responsible for the end-to-end design of high-density, board-mounted power supplies. You will push the limits of W/in³ through advanced integration and high-frequency switching (MHz to tens of MHz), developing VRMs/IVR and isolated/non-isolated DC-DC modules that power the next generation of processors.

• Design & Optimization: Propose new concepts, design and optimize magnetic components such as inductors, planar transformers to ensure performance (efficiency, transient response, etc.). Conduct PDN extraction and analysis for power modules to assess power path losses and switch-node ringing.
• Advanced Packaging & Integration:
• Collaborate with package/process engineers to develop advanced packaging solutions (such as 3D stacking, embedded magnetics) that integrate ICs, inductors, and capacitors into a high-density module.
• Multi-Physics Verification:
• Develop and validate finite element analysis (FEA) models to simulate electromagnetic, thermal and mechanical behavior.
• Prototyping & Fabrication:
• Collaborate with prototype teams, suppliers on fabrication to bring concept designs into real products, and validating designs via physical testing.
• Establish and maintain cooperation with industrial institutions and universities in Europe.

Your areas of expertise

• Educational Background: Master's or PhD degree in Electrical Engineering, Microelectronics, or a related field.
• Experience: good industry experience in power solutions, specifically in power magnetics and modules design for data centers, telecommunications, or high-performance computing.

Technical Expertise:

• Proven expertise in high-current, high-frequency Package-level (IVR) or Board level (VRMs, TLVR, isolated/non-isolated DC-DC) power modules
• Proficiency in the design of high-density inductors/planar transformers (LLC, HSC, etc.), with the ability to judge manufacturing and process feasibility
• Experience with Multi-physics modeling and simulations (COMSOL)
• Deep knowledge of topologies like buck, LLC
• Hands-on experience in PCB layout for high-current-density and high-frequency applications

Experience with any of below areas is highly preferred:

• Experience in AI/HPC Power architecture design, board/package/on-chip power delivery, power integrity analysis
• Knowledge or Experience with power module packaging/integration, manufacturing/

prototyping PCB/substrate-embedded magnetics, PCB/substrate fabrication process

• In depth understanding of high-frequency magnetic material behavior, loss modeling, and reliability testing
• Experience with wide-bandgap semiconductors (LV GaN), electromigration simulation of solder joints
• Agile thinking, with the ability to think outside the box and propose flexible, diversified solutions
• Self-motivated to drive projects with excellent execution capabilities
• Fluency in written and spoken English
