Your future responsibilities
- As a Research Engineer you will be responsible for the automated code-generation workflow for the next generation of highest efficiency and power electronic systems.
- You will work in close collaboration with other experts in the Power Electronic Division which will complement your work from a topology optimization and control development system point of view. You will contribute to research projects (see example below) by defining MCU requirements, digging deep into MCU peripherals, understanding control requirements and maping them the available MCU hardware resources. Finally, you will implement control algorithms using different toolchains in selected MCU platforms and test your implementation in the lab with hardware in the loop test systems and real power electronics hardware. Collaboration with scientists from many different disciplines will enable you to optimize and implement code in order to operate the most efficient converter prototypes achieving highest power densities.
- In the DC-Microgrid project you work on:
- Developing innovative DC/DC converter technologies for varying voltage levels with advanced power semiconductor devices and new materials for magnetics design.
- Enhancing system efficiency, modularity and scalability in industrial DC-grid applications.
- Research on improving methods for energy flow optimization, protection and safety measures, EMI and stability investigations including subsystem interactions for advanced converter systems.
