We are looking for a Senior Research Scientist to design and develop advanced power electronics systems in flow-based energy storage. The role will involve participation in joint research innovation activities, as well as technology translation, management, and reporting.
Key Responsibilities:
- Design and develop advanced power electronics systems for flow-based energy storage.
- Develop test plans and conduct laboratory testing to verify system performance under various operating conditions.
- Prepare comprehensive technical documentation, including design and test reports, control models, test results, and source code.
- Support technology translation activities, including transferring research outcomes into practical engineering solutions and commercially viable products.
- Manage and lead the research team, including task planning, technical guidance, progress tracking, and coordination across stakeholders.
- Report research progress and outcomes to the Principal Investigator (PI) and the funding agency.
Job Requirements:
- PhD degree in power electronics engineering or a related field.
- At least 5 years of relevant R&D experience in high-power, high-efficiency power electronics systems.
- Familiarity with the development process of high-power power electronics systems (>10 kW) and hands-on engineering design experience.
- Solid knowledge of energy storage systems, with familiarity in flow-based energy storage technologies, including the characteristics of flow batteries, as well as their battery management systems (BMS) and energy management systems (EMS).
- Strong understanding of silicon carbide (SiC) power devices, with hands-on experience in designing and debugging SiC gate driver circuits, including experience with double-pulse testing.
- Good written and oral communication skills.
- Proficiency in power electronics simulation and design tools such as PSIM, PLECS, and Altium Designer; familiarity with industrial communication protocols (e.g., CAN, Modbus); and experience with embedded C/C++ programming for implementing control algorithms on DSPs and FPGAs.
- Ability to lead a team and work collaboratively in a fast-paced environment.
- Strong analytical, documentation, and communication skills, with the ability to work both independently and collaboratively in dynamic, cross-functional, and fast-paced research environments.
