Transformer Electrical Design Engineer
Austin, TX
Full-time
Onsite
Senior Level
5+ years expFluxCo is seeking a dual-threat Design Engineer with expertise in both Electromagnetic Analysis and Mechanical Construction of transformers. The role involves owning the design process holistically, utilizing advanced simulation and CAD tools to create efficient and manufacturable designs.
Electrical & Electronic Manufacturing
Responsibilities
Electrical Design: perform detailed calculations for windings, core geometry, insulation coordination, and thermal performance
Mechanical Execution: Create complex 3D assemblies for tanks, clamping structures, and bus work
DFM Optimization: Bridge the gap between theory and reality. Design components that account for material tolerances, bending radii, and assembly access to ensure smooth production
Validation: Use software to run dielectric stress analysis (Electrical) and structural/seismic FEA (Mechanical) prior to release
Qualification
Required
Proficient in modeling flux density, losses, and impedance using tools like ANSYS Maxwell, COMSOL, or proprietary magnetics software
Operate at an expert level in SolidWorks, Inventor, or Creo
