Petalite is a next generation EV charging company with a clear mission: to revolutionise electric charging technology. Through an extensive period in R&D, we gave ourselves the freedom to think differently and the time to reimagine a better way.
Our solutions take EV charging to the point of real change, transforming the way we travel with better EV charging technology. We are removing the charge anxiety caused by today's infrastructure, creating the freedom to connect, work and explore sustainably.
As a team, we move together. We cannot progress forwards without the people next to us. We never stand still. We learn, we improve, we test until we break through.
We are here to contribute towards something bigger than ourselves. This is a place where everyone plays a part in that vision.
We are looking to recruit a
Hardware Technical Specialist / Principal Electronics Engineer
to provide technical leadership and oversight for the electronics team, directing and guiding our engineers to create high performance, high reliability and cost competitive designs which are optimised for high volume manufacture.
Key Responsibilities:
Provide technical expertise into systems engineering led activities to help define the system architecture solutions for our next generation products. Become one of our recognised experts in the standards applicable to the development of DC Fast Charger products. Be the technical authority within the HW team, the recognised owner for the design review process, and responsible to personally review and sign off designs, operating the design release process and directing the hardware team in the design and verification of circuit blocks. Define and drive the hardware design analysis activities, such as failure mode effects analysis (FMEA) reliability prediction, safe failure fraction, etc. Provide leadership and direction for investigation and resolution of all test failures where ownership is assigned to the hardware team, defining the technical content of the design and supporting the HW Team Lead to develop the supporting DVP schedule. Lead the HW team in driving the development of the design to achieve the cost targets, and support the team in working with our manufacturing partner on the Design For Manufacture (DFM) and Design For Test (DFT) analysis, ensuring that our designs are optimised for high volume manufacture.
What you would receive:
An excellent opportunity in the delivery of world class electrical and electronic designs through the full design lifecycle from initial concept into volume production. A competitive salary, company pension scheme, private medical insurance, death in service cover, 29 days annual leave + bank holidays. We have a buy and sell holiday scheme and a salary sacrifice EV Car scheme. There is access to charge your vehicle for free at work. Parking is also free. Petalite is based in Birmingham B4 7BA, the role will require on-site attendance with some flexible working.
Requirements for this role:
Qualified to at least Degree level in Electronics Engineering. The successful applicant will need to demonstrate considerable depth of knowledge in Electrical and Electronic engineering. They should have been operating in a role where they have provided technical leadership and/or acted as design authority through the whole product lifecycle of at least one complex power electronics-based product, from concept to volume production. Significant knowledge and expertise in the design and development of high efficiency, high power (>10kW) inverters (motor drives) or converters (DC/DC) for high volume production. Must have sufficient breadth and depth of knowledge and experience to guide and support our engineers and to effectively review and critique designs produced. Experience in design and development of digital boards incorporating latest generation multi-core microprocessors. Excellent working knowledge in the principles of design for EMC and strong expertise in circuit design, analysis and simulation for schematic capture and PCB layout. Strong expertise in all aspects of testing, from printed circuit board assembly level to system and product level. Highly competent in structured problem-solving techniques, able to coach and mentor less experienced team members to analyse and solve difficult problems.
