Power Electronics Graduate Engineer

The Programme

Dyson has an opportunity for graduates to join the highly successful Power Electronics and Energy Storage group.  
 
About the role:

The Power Electronics Engineer role involves specification, design, and testing of the power electronic circuits for new and pioneering consumer or home appliance products.  
 
As a member of the Global Power Systems – Power Electronics & Energy Storage Team, you will work in multi-disciplinary global project teams to define, architect, and deliver the next generation of electronic hardware for Battery Management Systems and Motor Drives.

The day-to-day responsibilities include:

• Device selection and characterization for different power applications. 
• Design of mains or battery-powered motor drivers to meet product requirements. 
• Design of battery management system (BMS) for all Dyson products. 
• Develop, test and document designs using best engineering practices. 
• Verifying design decisions through simulation, test and analysis of the results. 
• Following the full life cycle of the product development processes. 
• Ensure design solutions meet product specifications and functional requirements (performance, reliability, DFM, cost and compliance with international regulatory standards e.g. IEC, UL and EMC). 
• Liaise and collaborate with various Dyson engineering teams (Mechanical, Compliance, Software, Manufacturing, Test, etc) across the UK and Southeast Asia to ensure product and system requirements are satisfied and drive product development through to production. 
• Produce detailed engineering materials including design schematics, PCB layouts, tolerance analysis, design notes, FMEA, failure analysis reports, and technical review documents. 
• Contribute towards and support power electronics process improvement activities. 
• Sustain existing designs in production to ensure continued product supply.

The projects are supported by engineers at all levels, and they provide a great opportunity to develop and improve your skills and knowledge of power electronics. 

There is scope to make a positive impact and contribution to a range of new and exciting innovative products. 
 
Embark on a transformative journey with our two-year Graduate programme designed for your career success. Our unique experiential journey provides a framework so you can reach your full potential with leadership talks, development workshops and more, all whilst surrounded by industry leading experts.

About Us: 
 
At Dyson we are focused on solving the problems that others have ignored; solving them first using our technology and ingenuity. In order to achieve this, we need to pioneer technologies that are different and authentic.  
 
This is the core of what we do and who we are. We must strive to create the future, every single day by developing new things, different things, things that go against the grain with a diverse and global team of ingenious minds.  
 
Dyson employs over 13,000 people and is present in more than 80 countries. And while we are growing fast, we want Dyson to remain a start-up in spirit with the freedom of experimentation and learning, constantly reinventing our products as well as reinventing how we work, how we sell and how we support our owners.  
 
At the same time, we are working through the James Dyson Foundation, James Dyson Award and Dyson Institute to inspire future engineers and pioneering a new approach to engineering education.
