Senior Power Semiconductor Design Engineer
Senior Power Semiconductor Design Engineer
Our international client is looking for a Senior Power Semiconductor Design Engineer to contribute to the design and development of advanced power semiconductor devices (silicon and SiC) for overvoltage and overcurrent protection products. This role will involve leading chip design, modeling, layout, characterization, and qualification activities, as well as supporting manufacturing, process improvements, and new product introduction.
Key Responsibilities
- Design and layout semiconductor devices for internal and external wafer fabrication
- Collaborate with product management, sales, and applications teams to define and develop new products
- Apply semiconductor physics, wafer fabrication knowledge, DOE (Design of Experiments), SPC (Statistical Process Control), DFM (Design for Manufacturing), FMEA (Failure Mode and Effects Analysis), and Six Sigma methodologies to optimize designs and processes
- Perform device modeling, simulation, characterization, testing, reliability assessment, and failure analysis
- Prepare engineering documentation, product specifications, and datasheets to support product release, ensuring compliance with IATF 16949 standards
- Support the transfer of products from development into production
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.
