About the Position

Power Module Design Engineer (服务器电源模块工程师)

Renesas is seeking a Power Module Design Engineer to join our team in Shanghai, China. In this role, you will be responsible for designing high-current, high-density power modules for CPU/GPU/xPU core power and AI server power delivery applications.

Responsibilities

• Design high-current, high-density power modules for CPU/GPU/xPU core power and AI server power delivery applications.
• Collaborate with package engineers and IC designers to develop advanced packaging solutions that integrate ICs, inductors, and capacitors into a high-density module.
• Conduct PDN extraction for the module package to assess power path losses and switch-node ringing.
• Design inductors per module and silicon pinmap. Work with inductor vendors to bring concept designs into real products.
• Build and run module thermal models to ensure all components remain below maximum operating temperatures.
• Work with the validation team to debug power modules and perform bench characterization, including efficiency, thermal, and transient performance.
• Support design-for-manufacturing (DFM) and design-for-test (DFT) activities.

Requirements

• BSEE or MSEE with 5+ years of hands-on power electronics design experience.
• Strong experience designing high-current, high-frequency DC-DC converters, especially multiphase buck architectures.
• Direct experience designing power modules, VRMs, or highly integrated power solutions is strongly preferred.
• Deep understanding of power stage design and magnetics for high-current applications.
• Hands-on experience in PCB layout for high-current-density and high-frequency applications.
• Proficiency with design and simulation tools:
  • PCB layout: Cadence/Altium Designer
  • Circuit simulation: SIMPLIS / SIMetrix
  • PDN extraction and magnetic design: Q3D / PowerSI / Maxwell
  • Thermal simulation: Flotherm / Icepak
• Proven ability to debug complex power circuits through lab measurement and root-cause analysis.
• Ability to collaborate effectively across IC design, packaging, reliability, and manufacturing teams.

We Offer

• Opportunity to work with a leading global semiconductor company.
• Be part of a diverse and inclusive team that values innovation and excellence.
• Competitive compensation and benefits package.
• Professional development opportunities and a supportive work environment.
