Senior Hardware Engineer

Jul 2023 – Present · 2 yrs 11 mos

Handled requirement analysis, design, layout, verification, and maintenance for power supply solutions using PMICs/ SBCs and discrete power converters (BUCK, BOOST, SEPIC converter, ), collaborating with architects, EMC and safety experts. Performed worst-case analysis for component selection like MOSFETS and loop stability analysis of regulators to optimize compensation networks for target phase margins. Designed and configured PMIC interfaces for NXP FS26, Bosch CY32x family and TI TCAN2451 (wake-up, debug, reset, interrupt, safety), ensuring compatibility with existing architectures and project requirements and tested the fault reactions (such as under voltage/ overvoltage of power rails). Developed Python-based automation setup for power supply module verification, PMIC post-silicon validation workflows, reducing manual effort by 30% and improving repeatability. Contributed to Verification, validation Test plan and Test documentation. Contributed to the analysis of emerging requirements and use cases of PMICs/ SBCs and product portfolio and roadmap of suppliers for optimal power supply architecture design. Optimized the Target costing of Modules which involves saving of 0.1Euro per ECU.
