Hardware Design Engineer (SMPS)

Location : Ben Cat, Binh Duong (Shuttle bus provided)

Role Summary

• Take ownership of in-production engineering for SMPS products, focusing on reliability, quality, cost, and manufacturability improvements.
• Lead root cause analysis, component lifecycle management, compliance maintenance, and production support across global manufacturing partners.
• Strong candidates may be considered for the Senior Electrical Engineer level.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead electrical engineering activities covering product testing, failure analysis, engineering improvements, quality, and reliability.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to sustain SMPS products throughout their product lifecycle.
• Perform debugging and verification, including efficiency, thermal performance, regulation, transient response, protection features, conducted/radiated EMI pre-scans, and safety testing.
• Develop test plans and procedures and conduct hands-on testing of SMPS products, circuits, and components.
• Drive value engineering and cost-reduction initiatives, including qualification of alternative components and suppliers without compromising performance.
• Collect and analyze test data, prepare test reports, and maintain proper technical documentation.
• Design hardware and software-based test systems to support test automation.
• Conduct FMEA to identify critical and high-risk electrical design areas, perform evaluation testing, and implement risk mitigation actions.
• Conduct root cause analysis, identify failure mechanisms, and develop appropriate countermeasures.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s, Master’s, or equivalent degree in Electrical or Electronic Engineering.
• 5+ years of experience in electrical/electronics product development or sustaining engineering.
• Strong fundamentals in analogue, power, and digital electronics; able to interpret schematics and circuits, understand component functions, and analyze electrical stresses.
• Experience in qualifying electronic components and systems, with an understanding of common processes and methods in electronics design and manufacturing.
• Hands-on experience with environmental testing, laboratory equipment, and measurement instruments.
• Familiarity with ECAD tools such as Altium or OrCAD, including schematics, PCB, and Gerber.
• Proficiency in FMEA, 8D, DOE, and statistical analysis.
• Familiarity with Microsoft 365 tools, including Office, Teams, and SharePoint.
• Result-oriented, detail-focused, and passionate about continuous improvement.

Nice to Have

• Experience with HV measurement techniques and laboratory equipment such as HV probes and oscilloscopes.
• Familiarity with SMPS topologies, including flyback/forward, resonant/LLC, PFC front-ends, multipliers, and HV bias supplies.
• Experience in high-reliability industries such as medical, industrial, automotive, or aerospace.
