Research Fellow (EV drive-train inverter)

Job Description

NUS is looking for a Research Fellow to work on EV drive-train inverter based on Wide-bandgap (WBG) semiconductor devices.
 
The job requires the candidate to design, simulate a WBG based inverters with device characteristics, build the required hardware setups, work closely with liquid cooling team to integrate the cooling system, and produce detailed experimental results for the hardware prototypes. The candidate also needs to assist in the development of a demonstratable product according to the best design etched through research and should be tested as per the EV industry’s requirement.

Qualifications

•    Possess a recognised PhD  degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent with specialisation in Power electronic converters and drives.
•    Working experience at industry in the area of power converter development is preferred. 
•    Able to work independently by conducting experiments alone or in teams when required and possess strong experimental validation experience.
•    Familiar with working of various WBG device-based power electronic converters and their soft-switching techniques.
•    Familiar with state-of-the-art simulation platforms such as MATLAB/Simulink, PSIM and PLECS.
•    Familiar with multi-objective optimal design of power converters, and PCB design tools such as Altium designer or equivalent.
•    Familiar with controller implementation and experimental troubleshooting.
•    Able to work on multiple tasks and projects in a multi-cultural and dynamic environment, with teams, governmental agencies and collaborators.
•    Good written and communication skills.
