Overview
Expleo is a trusted partner for end-to-end, integrated engineering, quality services and management consulting for digital transformation. We help businesses harness unrelenting technological change to successfully deliver innovations that will help them gain a competitive advantage and improve the everyday lives of people around the globe.
An opportunity has arisen for a Senior Power Electronics System Engineer to lead the design, development, and integration of advanced electronic and high-voltage (HV) systems within a complex engineering environment.
This role is suited to a highly skilled engineer with a strong background in power electronics, embedded systems, and full lifecycle (V-cycle) development. The position involves ownership of system architecture, supplier engagement, validation strategies, and compliance with industry standards, particularly in safety-critical and high-performance applications.
Responsibilities
- Lead system engineering activities for high-voltage (HV) subsystems, including power electronics modules such as DC-DC converters and HV distribution systems.
- Define, develop, and maintain high-level system architecture and technical requirements.
- Oversee full lifecycle development (V-cycle), from concept and design through to validation, production, and release.
- Support functional safety activities in line with ISO 26262, including DFMEA, DVP, design for manufacture (DFM), and root cause analysis (RCA).
- Collaborate with external suppliers and vendors to align on technical specifications, design reviews, and delivery milestones.
- Lead system integration activities, ensuring seamless interaction between hardware, embedded software, and vehicle/system-level requirements.
- Develop and implement end-of-line (EoL) test systems, including automated test solutions and custom hardware for validation and fault detection.
- Conduct environmental and reliability testing (e.g. temperature and humidity cycling) and ensure robustness of designs.
- Perform EMC/EMI testing and implement design improvements to meet regulatory compliance standards.
- Ensure compliance with manufacturing and assembly standards (e.g. IPC standards) across PCB design and integration.
- Support diagnostic and communication analysis using appropriate tools and scripting solutions.
- Contribute to configuration management, engineering change processes, and product release activities.
- Provide technical leadership, mentoring junior engineers and guiding multidisciplinary teams to deliver project objectives.
Qualifications
- Degree in Electronic Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related discipline.
Essential skills
- Expertise in analogue and digital electronic design.
- Strong understanding of high-voltage systems and safety-critical design environments.
- Strong knowledge of power electronics, including DC-DC converter design and HV systems integration.
- In-depth understanding of EMC/EMI compliance and associated testing standards.
- Proficiency in embedded systems development and hardware/software integration.
- Knowledge of vehicle/system-level diagnostics and communication protocols.
- Strong understanding of PCB design, layout, and manufacturing standards (e.g. IPC-610, IPC-620).
- Ability to define and manage system-level requirements and architectures.
- Experience working with engineering tools such as:
- Altium Designer / OrCAD
- LabVIEW / TestStand
- CANalyzer (or similar diagnostic tools)
- SAP (or equivalent PLM/ERP systems)
Desired skills
- Proven track record in delivering complex electronic and power electronics systems across industries such as automotive, aerospace, medical, or industrial sectors.
- Experience with scripting or programming languages such as Python for automation and analysis.
- Demonstrated ability to manage supplier relationships and technical interfaces.
- Familiarity with high-voltage safety procedures and authorised person responsibilities.
- Exposure to manufacturing test strategy development and production readiness activities.
- Experience working in highly regulated or safety-critical industries.
- Extensive experience in electronic system design and power electronics engineering.
Experience
- Experience with high-efficiency power conversion systems and advanced power electronics topologies.
- Experience leading HV system development, including design, integration, and validation.
- Experience with functional safety processes (ISO 26262) and supporting methodologies (DFMEA, DVP, RCA).
- Experience with test system development, including automated validation frameworks.
- Experience developing automated test systems and custom validation hardware.
- Hands‑on experience with environmental and reliability testing.
- Experience debugging and reviewing embedded software in conjunction with hardware systems.
- Experience working within structured engineering processes and gated project delivery frameworks.
- Prior experience leading or mentoring engineering teams.
Benefits
- Collaborative working environment – we stand shoulder to shoulder with our clients and our peers through good times and challenges
- We empower all passionate technology loving professionals by allowing them to expand their skills and take part in inspiring projects
- ExpleoAcademy – enables you to acquire and develop the right skills by delivering a suite of accredited training courses
- Competitive company benefits
- Always working as one team, our people are not afraid to think big and challenge the status quo
- As a Disability Confident Committed Employer we have committed to:
- Ensure our recruitment process is inclusive and accessible
- Communicating and promoting vacancies
- Offering an interview to disabled people who meet the minimum criteria for the job
- Anticipating and providing reasonable adjustments as required
- Supporting any existing employee who acquires a disability or long term health condition, enabling them to stay in work at least one activity that will make a difference for disabled people
“We are an equal opportunities employer and welcome applications from all suitably qualified persons regardless of their race, sex, disability, religion/belief, sexual orientation or age”.
We treat everyone fairly and equitably across the organisation, including providing any additional support and adjustments needed for everyone to thrive
