Senior Staff Engineer, Power Device Modeling and Product Design
About The Position
The Senior Staff Engineer, Power Device Modeling and Product Design is part of Infineon Technologies’ Research & Development team. The role shapes integrated power product concepts by translating application and customer requirements into MOSFET specifications and design guidance, balancing efficiency, switching performance, ruggedness, die area, and manufacturability. The engineer evaluates device features and device–circuit–package interactions through analytical tools, efficiency calculators, and SPICE/Cadence simulations. The position also develops, maintains, and validates technology and product SPICE models for power MOSFETs and sense FETs against characterization data. Working with technology, design, packaging, characterization, and application teams, the engineer helps define experiments, investigate performance gaps, and verify product concepts from feasibility through product qualification. The role advances simulation and development workflows by creating and maintaining engineering applications, automation, and data-analysis tools. It also applies AI-assisted and agentic coding with appropriate verification to improve modeling accuracy, design exploration, and engineering productivity.
Requirements
- At least 5 years of relevant professional experience in power semiconductor product development, device modeling, or power electronics.
- A degree in Electrical Engineering, Physics, or a related field.
- Strong understanding of silicon power MOSFET device physics, electrical characteristics, and design trade-offs, including conduction and switching losses, parasitics, ruggedness, and their impact on voltage-regulator and integrated power-stage performance.
- Hands-on proficiency in SPICE model development, parameter extraction, calibration, and circuit simulation.
- Proficiency in Python, JMP, or comparable programming and statistical data-analysis tools, including experience developing engineering scripts or applications.
- Ability to use and critically validate AI-assisted or agentic coding workflows.
- Strong analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills.
- Ability to work independently, document technical conclusions, and collaborate effectively across global, cross-functional engineering teams.
Nice To Haves
