Power Electronics Lead

EnerSys is a global leader in stored energy solutions for industrial applications. We have over thirty manufacturing and assembly plants worldwide servicing over 10,000 customers in more than 100 countries. Worldwide headquarters are located in Reading, PA, USA with regional headquarters in Europe and Asia. We complement our extensive line of Motive Power and Energy Systems with a full range of integrated services and systems. With sales and service locations throughout the world, and over 100 years of battery experience, EnerSys is the power/full solution for stored DC power products.  Job Purpose The  Power Electronics Lead  will take technical leadership of the design, development, and industrialization of high‑power AC/DC conversion systems, including megawatt‑scale Power Conversion Systems (PCS). This role requires deep expertise in power electronics, advanced AC/DC topologies, liquid‑cooled systems, and the ability to manage multidisciplinary engineering teams. The leader will drive innovation, ensure product reliability, and support the deployment of robust power conversion solutions for demanding industrial applications. Essential Duties and Responsibilities Lead engineering activities for the development of modular Power Conversion Systems (PCS) (100 kW building blocks scalable to MW‑level power), including topology selection, control strategies, grid‑interface functions, and protection systems. Define system architectures combining power modules, control electronics, thermal systems, and mechanical integration. Supervise the design and validation of liquid‑cooling systems (cold plates, pumps, coolant loops, heat exchangers) for high‑density power converters. Conduct advanced simulations (electrical, thermal, EMC) and guide the team in implementing best‑in‑class design practices. Ensure compliance with relevant standards (UL, IEC, CE, EMC, grid‑connection standards). Coordinate cross‑functional teams (mechanical, software, industrialization, quality) throughout the product lifecycle. Manage supplier relationships for semiconductors (SiC/GaN), magnetics, capacitors, and thermal components. Lead technical reviews, FMEA/DFMEA, and reliability assessments. Support customer projects, commissioning, and troubleshooting of deployed systems. Mentor and develop engineering talent within the team. Required Qualifications Master’s degree or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Power Electronics, or a related field. Good level of French and English 8+ years of experience in AC/DC converter design for high‑power industrial applications. Strong expertise in semiconductor technologies (IGBT, SiC MOSFET, GaN), magnetics, and digital control. Proven experience with liquid‑cooled power modules and thermal management. Familiarity with grid‑connected power electronics (harmonics, EMC, protection, control loops). Experience managing engineering teams and complex technical programs. Proficiency with simulation…
