About The Position

Position Summary At Rockwell Automation, you won't just be designing another incremental hardware update — you'll help shape the next generation of industrial motion control platforms. As a Power Hardware Engineer, you will work on complex, high‑performance electronics that sit at the core of motion systems used across global industrial applications. to join our new product development team. You will have the opportunity to: Build hardware and product — taking designs from idea to production Work in a deeply technical and versatile environment Design power electronics hardware for converters, inverters and ICT technology for industrial environment. Grow both technically and professionally, with increasing scope, responsibility, and influence over product direction and architecture. Our global engineering culture values collaboration, technical thoughtfulness, and new ideas. The environment is fast‑paced and dynamic contributing to multiple products. You will work on a team comprised of engineers across multiple disciplines (e.g., mechanical, power electronics, embedded software) to bring our product roadmaps to life. Expand Beyond Traditional Servo Drives While you will work on advanced servo drive hardware, its scope goes well beyond conventional motion control. You will also contribute to the evolution of Independent Cart Technology (ICT) — a growing motion technology that introduces new architectural challenges and opportunities, including: Distributed control, network and power architectures High‑performance communication and synchronization Scalability, modularity, and system‑level robustness
