Power Semiconductor System Application Team – PV & ESS (Residential & C&I) Your Role The Senior Staff Software Engineer leads embedded control software development for power conversion system reference solutions, serving both residential and commercial & industrial (C&I) PV and energy storage scenarios.

Our team builds system-level reference solutions based on the company’s full product portfolio, including power semiconductors, MCUs, gate drivers and sensors, to fully unlock the performance advantages of our device lineup.

You will design and optimize digital control software, and collaborate cross-functionally with product lines, hardware, test and manufacture teams to deliver high-efficiency, reliable reference solutions that balance performance and cost targets across diverse application scenarios.

Provide technical support to internal teams and external customers, and compile application notes and technical troubleshooting documents for our integrated system solutions. Communication & Teamwork: Effective cross-team communication skills and strong teamwork mindset to align with hardware, device and test teams.

Key responsibilities in your new role Own end-to-end embedded control software development for PV & ESS power converter reference systems, covering grid-tied control, energy storage management, protection logic design, algorithm implementation, coding, debugging, prototype verification and version iteration.

Cooperate with hardware engineers to define software-hardware interfaces, design matching control algorithms and MCU peripheral low-level drivers for target power topologies, and conduct joint hardware-software debugging on lab prototypes built with our MCU, gate driver, power semiconductor and sensor products.

Build system and control algorithm simulation models to validate control logic, optimize dynamic response and efficiency prior to hardware implementation. Support system design roadmap definition, provide software technical assessment for residential and C&I reference design requirements, and propose control solutions.

Troubleshoot control and software-related anomalies during internal lab validation and customer reference board testing, perform root cause analysis and deliver optimized software releases.
