Are you an Electronics engineer and ready for a new challenge in the LED lighting industry?

If working with power electronics is where your passion lies, then we have the perfect opportunity for you… take the leap and become an Electronics Engineer at Seaborough Research!

The electronics team within Seaborough focuses on generating intellectual properties while solving the biggest challenges in the lighting industry related to penetration of LED lighting. This is a full time behind-the-workbench job and as an electronics engineer you will be able to research and develop the feasibility of new technologies. You will provide direction on the modern topologies to be used in products.

 

Are you an Electronics engineer with the following skills?

  •  Design and development of Switch Mode Power Supplies.
  • Schematic and PCB Design (Altium Designer). KiCad knowledge is an advantage.
  • Knowledge of safety analysis, design, and validation to IEC standards
  • Functional EMI understanding and filter design knowledge.
  • Analog and Digital circuit design (Digital circuits knowledge is an advantage).

As an Electronics engineer, here is what you will mainly be up to:

  •  Design and development of conventional and non-conventional drivers including DC/DC converters, AC/DC converters for LED lighting applications.
