Principal Power System Architect – Infrastructure & Datacenter (资深/高级电源系统架构师- 基础设施与数据中心）
Architect power electronics systems from 1 to 250 kW using wide-bandgap GaN and SiC devices for datacenter and server infrastructure.
Originally posted 5 November 2026 by the employer.
About the role
Define and own power electronics system architectures across the 1 to 250 kW range for infrastructure and server/datacenter applications. The role focuses on architecture, proof-of-concept, and reference-design programs across voltage regulators, power-supply controllers, gate drivers, and discrete power switches.
What you'll do
- Define power electronics system architectures (1 - 250 kW) meeting electrical performance, reliability, safety, scalability, and cost requirements for datacenter and infrastructure applications.
- Lead system-level trade-off studies covering power density, efficiency, Bill of Materials (BOM), manufacturability, and total solution cost.
- Break down large power electronic systems into modular subsystems and guide modelling and simulation in MATLAB Simulink and other circuit simulation environments.
- Provide technical leadership for Proof-of-Concept and reference-design programs from architecture and schematic implementation through system validation.
- Shape solution and IC roadmaps for voltage regulators, power-supply controllers, gate drivers, and discrete power switches by identifying portfolio gaps.
- Lead cross-functional technical reviews, manage architectural risks, and align global engineering resources across hardware, software, and IC design teams.
What you'll need
- MSEE with 12+ years of relevant experience in power-system and power-electronics architecture, design, and development across the 1 - 250 kW range.
- Expert knowledge of power-conversion topologies including AC-DC, inverter, isolated DC-DC converters, LDO, and switch-mode topologies such as buck, boost, and buck-boost.
- In-depth understanding of magnetics, control theory, thermal design, protection, and discrete power devices such as MOSFET, IGBT, GaN, and SiC.
- Advanced proficiency with simulation tools including MATLAB Simulink, SIMetrix/Simplis, and SPICE.
- Deep experience in power-supply architectures for communication infrastructure, datacenters, traditional servers, and AI servers.
- Hands-on understanding of schematic design, PCB layout, thermal management, safety, and EMC/EMI mitigation for high-power applications (1 - 250 kW).
Nice to have
- PhD in Electrical Engineering or related field.
- Direct engagement experience with hyperscale customers or platform partners.
- Evidence of technical contributions such as patents, publications, standards participation, or conference contributions.
