Power Electronics Internship, CesiumAstro

• If you are looking for hands-on, interactive, and autonomous work, CesiumAstro is the place for you. We are actively seeking passionate, collaborative, energetic, and forward-thinking individuals to join our team
• Current enrollment in a Master of Science (MS), or PhD program in Electrical Engineering or Computer Engineering from an accredited university with a focus in analog or power electronics
• GPA of 3.5 or higher
• Strong fundamentals in electronics and completion of course work in one or more of the following areas: power electronics, modeling and control of power electronics, control theory, linear systems theory, non-linear system theory, power systems, and analog electronics
• Knowledge ofdifferent DC-DC power converter topologies (e.g.discrete linear regulator, Buck, Buck-boost, Flyback, Forward, Half-bridge, Full-bridge)
• Hands-on experience with lab instruments such as oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, frequency response and impedance analyzers, electronic loads, power sources, and signal generators
• Experience with analysis and simulation tools such as SPICE, LTSPICE, SIMetrix/SIMPLIS, PLECS, Simulink, MATLAB, MathCAD, ANSYS Q3D and SiWave, or HyperLynx
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills

Desirable

• The Analog & Power Electronics team is responsible for developing advanced power electronics for our space and military products
• We own analog and power electronics designs for multi-output power supply modules and for point of load (PoL) power supplies for RF and Digital boards
• We are responsible for the entire development cycle from power architecture development to part selection, schematic and printed circuit board (PCB) design, verification testing, and production release
• Designs encompass the entire spectrum of power supply development including power conversion, power management and control, fault management, and power filtering for low noise and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
• We’re looking for summer interns to support our mission
• Interns work side-by-side with experienced power electronics engineers
• Interns in the Analog & Power team are typically responsible for design projects that directly contribute towards an on-going program or contribute towards advancing the Analog & Power Electronics team’s technology development road map
• Interns will also gain valuable experience in hands-on laboratory characterization and troubleshooting of power electronics

• To apply, please include a brief cover letter describing your interest in power or analog electronics hardware design
