About Autodata

Autodata was established in 1980 in Mumbai and has grown from variable speed drives into three major verticals: Automation, Particulate Emission Control, and Power Electronics (DC power supplies, heater control, and power quality). We operate manufacturing facilities of 1,400 sq. meters in Mumbai, with a new 6,000 sq. meter facility being added at Sri City, near Chennai.

Our Power Electronics group is engaged in:

- Active Front End (AFE) systems under development for power factor improvement and harmonic compensation.
- A high-voltage rectifier system fed by a three-phase transformer operating at 1000 Hz, with V/F control of the primary, a delta-star secondary connected to a series-connected three-phase bridge, in ratings from 10 kVA to 250 kVA — currently under development.
- Line-commutated thyristor control equipment for transformer primary control of single and three-phase transformers, used in Electrostatic Precipitator (ESP) power supplies rated 95–120 kV, up to 2000 mA. ESPs are used to control particulate emissions in power plants, sinter plants, steel plants, and cement plants.
- High-frequency-fed transformer rectifier systems for ESP applications (in association with a US-based company), involving resonant switching inverters.
- DC power supplies for electro-deposition and battery charging, including EV charging.
- Analog and digital heater controls using line-commutated thyristor topologies.

Our control platform is built on the Texas Instruments Piccolo series DSP, with associated peripherals including mux/demux units, A/D and D/A converters, communication memory, digital and analog I/O, and HMIs. ______________

We are looking for a Power Electronics Design Engineer with expertise in TI controllers, simulation,



and converter design to join our Power Electronics vertical. The role involves design, simulation, development, validation, and support of power converter systems across our AFE, high-frequency rectifier, ESP transformer-rectifier, and DC power supply product lines.

Key Responsibilities / Required Skills

Simulation & Firmware

- Simulation of power converter topologies using PSIM / MATLAB-Simulink
- Firmware development using Code Composer Studio, with strong C programming and debugging skills on TI Piccolo series DSPs

Power Topologies & Hardware
- Working knowledge of power topologies: AFE, Buck-Boost converters, resonant converters
- Gating and protection design for SiC, IGBT, MOSFET, and SCR devices
- Hardware design and multilayer PCB design
- Magnetic design of chokes and transformers, both at 50 Hz and high switching frequencies (up to 50 kHz)
- Thermal design, with familiarity with thermal design/simulation software

Validation & Documentation
- Validation of hardware and software for new and existing products
- Exposure to end-to-end product design lifecycle
- Preparation of manufacturing, testing, and servicing documentation

Additional / Valuable-to-Have
- Exposure to GSM-based data logging and remote intervention systems

What We're Looking For
- Enthusiasm combined with a clear understanding of fundamental principles in power electronics and the application areas described above
- Willingness to commit to working with our group for a mutually agreed minimum period
- Ability to work well within a team
- Willingness to undertake site visits for commissioning and servicing, as required by the project or reporting manager.

Pay: ₹489,901.60 - ₹1,000,000.00 per year

Benefits

- Food provided
- Paid time off
- Provident Fund

Work Location: In person
