  • EV Chargers (AC, DC Fast & Ultra-Fast)
  • Electrolyser Power Supplies
• Own electrical specifications: voltage/current levels, isolation, grounding, protection, efficiency, and reliability.
• Lead adoption of SiC / IGBT / GaN devices and advanced topologies (NPC, ANPC, AFE, DAB, LLC).
• Ensure grid compatibility, harmonic performance, and fault-ride-through capability.

2. Product Engineering & Execution

• Lead and mentor teams covering:
  • Power Electronics, Electrical Systems Engineering
  • Interface with Mechanical, Control & Embedded Software 
  • Lead Product development 
  • Own Engineering Process from Electrical BOM , Engineering drawing
• Establish electrical design guidelines, review processes, and technical governance.
• Drive design trade-offs balancing cost, performance, reliability, and manufacturability.
• Ensure DFMEA, PFMEA, and safety analysis are integral to development.
• Own End to

3. Product Development Lifecycle Ownership

• Own complete electrical engineering lifecycle:
  • Requirements → Architecture → Detailed Design → Prototype → Validation → Certification → Production support
• Implement V-Model / Stage-Gate / APQP processes.
• Drive platform-based product development for scalability and reuse.
• Lead value engineering and cost-reduction initiatives.

4. Compliance, Standards & Certification

• Ensure compliance with applicable standards:
  • Solar & PCS: IEC 62109, IEC 61727, IEEE 1547, UL 1741
  • EV Chargers: IEC 61851, IEC 62196, ISO 15118
  • EMC/EMI: IEC 61000 series
  • Functional Safety: IEC 61508 (where applicable)
• Interface with UL, TÜV, Intertek, and grid authorities.
• Own electrical validation strategy, test coverage, and certification success.
