JOB DESCRIPTION:


Relocation assistance will be provided if needed.

Primary function:

This individual will be responsible for the development of microprocessor based embedded 
systems and advanced designs for high-speed digital circuits, power supplies, and analog 
circuitry for the embedded systems.  The individual will be a member of the Power 
Electronics (PE) Center of Excellence (CoE) team in Raleigh, NC.

Our company's PE (CoE) accelerates the company’s growth through the development of power 
electronics technology platforms and common hardware building blocks that are scalable, 
cost-effective, and manufacturable as well as standardized design methodologies that can 
be adopted by multiple business units, which provides a foundation for our business to 
more rapidly develop innovative products. 

Making what matters work at our company takes the passion of every employee around the 
world. We create an environment where creativity, invention and discovery become 
reality, each and every day. It’s where bold, bright professionals like you can reach 
your full potential—and where you can help us reach ours.  

In this role you will:

Leads the microprocessor based embedded system development activities and demonstrates 
start-finish ownership for the assigned projects and tasks.
Performs design, modeling, simulation and implementation of analog and high-speed 
digital circuits including micro-processors, DSP’s, FPGA’s, sensor interfaces, and SMPS 
for the embedded systems
Builds and performs characterizing and testing high-speed digital and mixed-signal 
circuits
Analyzes data to improve and optimize the designs.
Develops the technical requirements for and identify components for the designs.
Creates technical reports and presentations.
Generates necessary documentation (e.g. schematics, layouts, drawings, BOMs, etc.)
Collaborates with mechanical, thermal, and firmware engineers to successfully develop 
and validate the microprocessor based embedded systems
Evaluates the designs to meet requirements factoring in performance, size, cost, 
manufacturability, and reliability.
Stays current with the latest electronics circuit technologies and applies. 
Mentors, assigns tasks and determines priority for project team members as needed
Interfaces with Business Unit (BU) engineers and Corporate Research and Technology (CRT) 
scientists.
When we embrace the different ideas, perspectives and backgrounds that make each of us 
unique, we — as individuals and as a company — are stronger.
