RCT Systems, Power Systems Division, is seeking Electrical Engineers, with preference towards specialities in Power Electronics Hardware and/or Control Design, or medium or high voltage power systems

Entry- and junior-level applicants to RCT Systems Power Systems Division (PSD), without specific experience or education in power conversion and/or power systems, are encouraged to provide cover letters to their resume/CV that address the gap between their background and the core work that we perform here at RCT PSD (solid-state power conversion).

Responsibilities of a qualified candidate will include:
  • Design and test WBG- (SiC or GaN) based power electronic converter topologies including active rectifiers, isolated DC-DC converters, solid-state-transformers, and high-speed motor drives
  • Design and test power electronic converter digital control algorithms
  • Develop Controller-Hardware-in-the-Loop (CHIL) or real-time (RT) test setups
  • Design and test systems based on WBG semiconductor modules ranging from 1.2 kV to 10 kV
Additionally, mid-level engineers may also expect to:
  • Lead cross-functional teams to develop solid-state power conversion systems
  • Provide technical input into business development activities
  • Create, review, and issue prototype and production level test procedures and test plans
  • Write and/or review EE focused patents, whitepapers, and technical conference/journal articles
  • Mentor junior Engineers

Minimum Requirements:
  • United States Citizenship is required due to US Government ITAR program restrictions. Must indicate citizenship status on individual documents submitted with the application (resume/CV or cover letter itself)– applications not identifying citizenship status on the submitted documents will *not* be considered.  Note that even if you have an active security clearance, you must identify citizenship on your submitted application documents.
  • BS in electrical engineering, computer science, or related major required; graduate work is acceptable in lieu of some work experience
  • Some experience developing higher power (>5 kW) solid-state power conversion is a must-have: identifying, selecting, modeling, analyzing, and designing various AC and DC power conversion topologies, and key components thereof, or in controlling these topologies and components.  Applicants without specific professional experience with higher power solid-state power conversion, but having some academic experience and/or currently pursuing graduate-level study in power electronics, will also be favorably considered.
  • Ability to obtain/maintain a DoD security clearance

Desired Skillset:
Candidates with strengths in some of the following areas are highly encouraged to apply:
  • Medium voltage power distribution, and solid-state-transformers (SST)
  • Selection or design of magnetics for power electronics converters, particularly for higher voltage switching applications
  • High speed communications development with high performance FPGAs
  • Experience programming various microcontrollers, DSPs, and FPGAs
  • Hands-on experience with PLECS RT Box, Typhoon HIL, OPAL-RT, or other Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) platforms
  • Experience with Altium (preferred), Cadence, KiCAD, or other PCB design software
  • Experience working with 3-phase power systems

Immediate Requirements/Projects include:
  • High Power SiC and Silicon power device design into converters/inverters
  • MIL standards compliance (e.g., 461, 1399, 704)
  • Multi-level parallel/series connected bi-directional AC-DC and DC-DC converters
  • 13.8 kV and 4160V grid interface power converters
  • Galvanically-isolated DC-DC converters
  • Design of modular power converters ranging from 10kW to 500kW converters scalable to multiple MWs
  • Controller-Hardware-in-the-Loop (CHIL) and Power-Hardware-in-the-Loop (PHIL) development of WBG-based converter applications.

RCT Systems PSD supports hybrid (remote/in-office) and flexible work schedules; however candidates must reside within (or be willing to relocate to) commuting distance of our Baltimore, MD facility.
