We’re Hiring: Power Electronics Engineer

Full time | Core team

LAT Aerospace | Civil

LAT Aerospace is developing next-generation aerospace systems from first principles. This includes a hybrid electric aircraft that takes off and lands within a space of a parking lot, Defence systems built from ground up and scalable Gas Turbine Engines.

The Power Electronics Engineer role is a hands-on one spanning power conversion, power distribution, motor control, embedded hardware, and high-power electrical systems. You will take hardware from architecture and schematic design through PCB development, fabrication, testing, and integration.

What you’ll do

- Design and develop power electronics for hybrid-electric powertrains, including rectifiers, power distribution board, PCUs, DC-DC converters, motor controllers/ESCs, and associated power boards.

- Develop schematics, PCB layouts, power stages, gate drives, sensing, protection, and control interfaces.

- Design and optimize power distribution architecture across generators, batteries, motors, and electrical loads.

- Perform component selection, electrical sizing, thermal analysis, failure mode identification, and derating for aerospace applications.

- Develop simulation models for converters, motor drives, power distribution, and system-level electrical architecture for appropriate software in loop simulations.

- Lead prototype development including board bring-up, debugging, characterization, hardware validation and integration.

- Design and implement protection, isolation, grounding, current/voltage sensing, fault detection, and safety mechanisms.





- Develop test setups and instrumentation for power electronics characterization and system validation.

- Diagnose hardware failures and drive rapid design iterations based on test results.

- Document designs, test procedures, validation results, and engineering decisions.

What we’re looking for

- 4+ years of skilled experience in aerospace, EV, industrial, or other high-performance electrical systems.

- Postgraduate degree in Electrical Engineering, Power Electronics, or a related field is preferred

- Strong fundamentals in power conversion, rectification, switching circuits, and inverter systems.

- Hands-on experience designing and debugging power electronics hardware from schematic through working prototypes.

- Experience with rectifiers, DC-DC converters, inverters, motor controllers/ESCs, or power distribution systems.

- Experience with power semiconductor devices, gate drives, magnetics, current/voltage sensing, and thermal management.

- Strong PCB design experience, including multilayer boards and high-current/high-frequency layouts.

- Experience with simulation tools such as PLECS, LTspice, PSIM, MATLAB/Simulink, or equivalent.

- Familiarity with HV/LV safety, isolation, grounding, protection, EMI/EMC, and electrical fault handling.

- Comfortable working directly with high-power hardware, oscilloscopes, power analyzers, power supplies, and other test equipment.

Why LAT?

- No hierarchy beyond strength of ideas.

- Rapid hardware iteration culture.

- Own the complete journey from engineering design to flight-ready hardware.
