Purpose of the Job
To define the power schemes and to design electrical components for traction drives or auxiliary converter systems
Position in the Organization
- Organization Reporting
- Hierarchical responsible: Power Domain Leader or Traction System Manager
- Functional responsible: Traction or Auxiliary PrEM
Network & Links
Strong link with others Power Design Engineers. In order to use and deploy the same development methods and ensure synergies, coordination and maximum carry-over between traction drives or auxiliary converter systems, the Power Design Engineer shall follow instructions given by the Power Skill Leader.
Under supervision of the PrEM, the Power Design Engineer shall carry out his mission in a tender, project, product or R&D team. He / She is linked with other technical domains (mechanical design, control-command, validation, RAMS), and with Sourcing and Quality departments
