Principal Electronics Engineer

Power Electronics - Aerospace - Technical Leadership

Newport £60K-£70K

Are you the engineer people rely on for power electronics expertise?

This is an opportunity to step into a technical leadership role where you'll take full ownership of aerospace power conversion systems - from concept through to validation - in a highly demanding, safety-critical environment.

You'll play a key role in shaping architecture, driving design decisions, and ensuring systems meet strict performance and regulatory standards.

What You'll Be Doing

Leading the design and development of AC/DC and DC/DC power conversion systems

Designing high-performance converters (PFC, THD, inrush optimisation)

Developing and validating control loops for power stages

Designing snubber and damping networks for stable operation

Owning EMC strategy, including multi-stage filtering design

Performing stability analysis and system-level validation

Designing custom magnetics (transformers, inductors)

Running simulations (LTspice or similar) to validate designs

Ensuring compliance with aerospace standards (DO-160, Boeing D6, ABD0100)

Mentoring and supporting other engineers

What We're Looking For

Degree in Electrical / Electronic Engineering (or similar)

Strong experience with AC/DC and DC/DC converter design

Deep understanding of power electronics, control loops, and stability ...
