Senior HV Power Electronics Engineer

6-Month Contract | £85/hr Inside IR35 | Hybrid – London

We're supporting an innovative engineering business developing advanced high-voltage power systems and are looking for a Senior HV Power Electronics Engineer to join on an initial 6-month contract.

This role will focus on assessing, validating, and resolving HV creepage and clearance challenges, supporting electrical safety compliance, and providing practical engineering solutions across power electronics and HV switching systems.

Responsibilities

  • Assess and provide solutions for HV creepage and clearance issues.
  • Support design verification and validation activities.
  • Review power electronics designs, schematics, layouts, and safety architectures.
  • Conduct root cause analysis and technical investigations.
  • Produce engineering documentation including requirements, test specifications, and verification reports.
  • Work closely with multidisciplinary engineering teams to ensure compliance and technical performance.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
