Overview
Who we are
Collaborative. Respectful. A place to dream and do. These are just a few words that describe what life is like at Toyota. As one of the worlds most admired brands Toyota is growing and leading the future of mobility through innovative high-quality solutions designed to enhance lives and delight those we serve. Were looking for talented team members who want to Dream. Do. Grow. with us.
To save time applying Toyota does not offer sponsorship of job applicants for employment-based visas or any other work authorization for this position at this time.
Who were looking for
Toyota is looking for aSenior Scientistposition in the Electronics Research Department focused on developingnovel and highly effective future power conversion solutions particularly those utilizing Wide Bandgap (WBG and/UWBG) semiconductors for a broad range of applications and power levels.
Representative applications range from high power/voltage electric vehicle systems down to lower power highly sensitive (e.g. quantum) sensor systems. Key aspects of this research will involve the cross-disciplinary exploration of opto-electronics electromagnetic interference (EMI) and state-of-the art packaging leveraging expertise in future semiconductor technology.
What youll be doing
Lead and conduct research on novel power conversion solutions for a range of applications including high power/voltage systems to low power/voltage sensors.
Investigate and propose new opto-electronic power packaging solutions possibly involving both electrical integrated circuit (EIC) and photonic integrated circuit (PIC) technology.
Develop advanced EMI mitigation techniques for high-speed power electronic converters with a focus on WBG/UWBG semiconductor devices.
Explore the use of optically triggered semiconductor devices leveraging expertise in semiconductor physics to optimize their performance for reduced EMI.
Conduct multiphysics (e.g. electrical optical thermal mechanical) simulation and modeling of power electronics systems and packages to predict performance.
Develop and build bench-level experimental setups in-house to test and validate power conversion and/or sensor concepts.
Analyze document and present research findings to internal and external stakeholders.
Mentor and guide junior researchers or technical staff.
Publish research findings in high-impact journals and present at conferences.
Drive innovation by generating novel ideas and proposing new research projects.
Willingness to learn and engage in new research areas (e.g. quantum science photonics) and apply skills to new fields is a must.
What you bring
Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering Power Electronics or a related multi-disciplinary engineering field.
Experience with circuit design simulation tools (e.g. SPICE Simulink MATLAB) circuit layout and PCB fabrication.
Hands-on research development measurement of electronic packages with optical function integration (e.g. high speed RF design EMI or analog circuit).
Exposure to semiconductor device characteristics either through practice or coursework.
Demonstrated ability to lead research projects and mentor team/lab members.
Experience in designing building and operating experimental setups for high-speed electronics.
Sophisticated scientific writing and history of technical presentations in conferences.
Added bonus if you have
Understanding of quantum mechanics and principles.
Experience with WBG/UWBG semiconductor devices (e.g. SiC GaN) and modeling tools.
Basic knowledge of optically triggered devices.
Experience with multiphysics and EMI simulation tools (e.g. COMSOL ANSYS EMA3D etc.).
Knowledge of CAD software (e.g. SolidWorks or similar).
Exposure to PIC research and development (e.g. simulation device layout tape out fab test).
