Power Engineering Manager
Company Overview
Our client is a global leader in rugged computing solutions, delivering high-reliability notebooks, tablets, handheld systems, and edge computing devices for mission-critical environments.
Unlike consumer electronics, these products are designed to operate under harsh environments, including wide temperature ranges, shock, vibration, dust, water, and long-term field usage. This creates unique challenges for power architecture, battery integration, charger design, system reliability, and thermal performance.
The engineering team owns the full product lifecycle, from power architecture planning and circuit design to validation, manufacturing support, and mass production.
Job Summary
The Power Engineering Manager will lead power system development for rugged notebook and tablet platforms, covering DC/DC power architecture, charger circuits, adapter validation, battery pack integration, and fuel gauge design.
This role is responsible for both technical leadership and team management, ensuring power designs meet requirements for performance, efficiency, thermal behavior, cost, layout feasibility, safety, and manufacturability.
The ideal candidate should have strong hands-on power design experience, system-level thinking, and the ability to lead engineers through product development from concept to mass production.
Responsibilities
- Lead power system design and architecture for rugged notebook and tablet products
- Manage DC/DC converter design, charger circuits, adapter validation, battery pack integration, and fuel gauge design
- Review and guide power circuit design, layout placement, component selection, and design trade-offs
- Evaluate power performance including efficiency, thermal behavior, stability, cost, and system reliability
- Lead power-related issue analysis and debugging during EVT / DVT / PVT and mass production stages
- Coordinate cross-functional collaboration with EE, ME, thermal, BIOS / firmware, manufacturing, and quality teams
- Establish engineering documentation, design review standards, and validation methodology
- Support supplier and component evaluation related to adapters, batteries, power ICs, and key power components
- Mentor and manage power engineers, improving team capability and execution quality
Requirements
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, or related field
- 8+ years of experience in power electronics or system power design
- Experience leading or mentoring engineers in product development projects
- Strong hands-on experience with NB / tablet / PC power architecture
- Familiar with DC/DC converter design, charger circuits, adapter validation, and battery system integration
- Experience with power circuit testing, debugging, and validation
- Understanding of layout considerations for power circuits
- Ability to evaluate trade-offs among performance, cost, thermal behavior, and manufacturability
- Strong cross-functional communication and leadership skills
- Working-level English communication ability
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience in rugged notebooks, industrial tablets, or high-reliability embedded systems
- Experience with battery pack, fuel gauge, charger IC, or adapter validation
- Familiarity with regulatory, safety, and reliability requirements for portable computing products
- Experience working with overseas manufacturing sites or suppliers
- Background from NB, tablet, PC, server, battery, adapter, or power IC related industries
