Principal Power Electronics - Electrical Power System Architect
San Francisco Bay Area
We are supporting an innovative space company seeking a Senior Power Electronics / EPS Architect to own the design and maturation of a high-voltage spacecraft electrical power system, approximately 400V.
This is a technical leadership role responsible for end-to-end EPS architecture, from solar array interfaces through regulation, storage, distribution, protection, and system integration.
Key Responsibilities:
- Own the detailed architecture of a high-voltage spacecraft power system.
- Define solar array regulation including S3R or MPPT, battery charge and discharge, bus regulation, and distribution strategies.
- Lead DC-DC converter topology selection and design, including protection schemes and derating strategy.
- Address high-voltage space environment risks including plasma interaction, insulation, grounding, and compliance with relevant standards.
- Perform system-level fault analysis and FMEA, define safe-mode behaviors, and support integration with control systems and high-power payloads.
- Define and execute verification, integration, and qualification strategy through PDR, CDR, and flight readiness.
Required Experience:
- 10+ years in power electronics and spacecraft EPS design.
- Strong background in high-voltage DC systems, power conversion, and fault-tolerant distribution
- Experience delivering hardware from concept through test and qualification.
- Experience designing for radiation environments and high-reliability aerospace systems.
This is a high-impact opportunity to architect a mission-critical spacecraft power system in a fast-paced, technically rigorous environment.
