Senior Power Electronics Engineer

At Voltify, we are building the next generation of rail - battery locomotives that fast charge autonomously and dynamically through a dedicated self-sustained microgrid network.

We are bringing back the power to the industry and eliminating the dependency on fossil fuels.

Lowering the rail industries main expense - energy - by more than 20%.

This is over $3B yearly just in North America.

We are already working with some of the largest global rail companies with over $50M in contingent orders.

We are seeking a highly experienced and dynamic Power Electronics Engineer to lead the design and development of advanced high-power systems. The initial focus will be on systems operating at voltages up to 1500VDC, with the strategic goal of developing converters and inverters for voltages up to 3kV in the future. This role includes full technical ownership of the company’s power electronics products, from concept through development, validation, and deployment.

We are looking for someone who can move fast (“run fast”), take ownership, and drive results in a high-paced, high-impact environment.

The ideal candidate will combine deep technical expertise with leadership capabilities, driving innovation and execution in high-power DC-DC converters, inverters, and current-carrying structures (busbars) for electrified transportation and energy systems.

• →Take full ownership of the company’s power electronics products, from concept to development, testing, integration, and production
• →Design and develop high-voltage systems (initially up to 1500VDC, with a future goal of up to 3kV)
• →Design both Power and Control boards, including high-power analogue circuits and digital/control electronics
• →Lead the design of DC-DC converters, inverters, and copper busbars
• →Design and supervise the layout of both Power and Control boards, including high-power analogue circuits and digital/control electronics
• →Support production, define and oversee development testing, and integration activities
• →Drive fast execution and results in a high-paced environment

• Background in control theory and experience working with microcontrollers - strong advantage
• Experience in EV, rail (traction systems), or energy storage (BESS) - strong advantage
• Familiarity with automotive/ rail standards (e.g., ISO, LV standards, functional safety) – strong advantage
• Experience with SiC-based power electronics
• Experience with product lifecycle ownership (from concept to production)
• Experience working with global suppliers and subcontractors
