## Description

As part of our growth, we are hiring an Application Engineer to support the adoption and deployment of innovative Solid-State Circuit Breaker (SSCB) solutions for next-generation power electronics systems. You will explore new application opportunities, develop customer-oriented demonstrators, and collaborate with industrial and research partners to accelerate the integration of advanced semiconductor-based protection technologies.

 * Explore and qualify new applications for semiconductor-based power protection technologies and SSCB solutions.
 * Design, develop, and validate demonstrators, prototypes, and customer evaluation platforms showcasing SSCB performance and benefits.
 * Investigate the integration of Wide Bandgap (WBG) devices into fast, selective, and intelligent protection functions.
 * Develop advanced test benches and perform characterization campaigns including fast transient, short-circuit, surge, and Safe Operating Area (SOA) testing.

Responsibilities:

 * Collaborate with customers and external partners to co-develop innovative AC and DC power distribution architectures for applications such as smart buildings, data centers, electric vehicles, and aerospace systems.
 * Build and maintain expertise in: WBG semiconductor devices, device physical limitations (SOA, dv/dt, di/dt, thermal constraints) and protection and fast interruption topologies.
 * Prepare application notes, technical reports, and design guidelines.
 * Monitor technology trends and market developments related to electronic protection solutions and power distribution systems.
