About Antigone Solutions Pvt Ltd

Antigone Solutions is a defence-focused start-up that specializes in the design development engineering and manufacturing of electronics solutions for aerospace and defence applications.

We provide end-to-end engineering capabilities from custom module and subsystem design to prototype development to build-to-specification and build-to-print manufacturing.

Our mission aligns with Make in India initiatives collaborating with defence labs and aerospace organizations to build indigenous high-reliability systems.

Role Overview

As a Power Design Engineer you will be responsible for designing developing and validating power electronics systems (AC-DC DC-DC converters power supplies etc.) tailored for rugged high-reliability aerospace and defence applications. You will work closely with system engineers PCB designers test engineers and hardware teams to deliver power subsystems that meet strict performance safety and environmental requirements.

Key Responsibilities

• Design and develop power conversion circuits (ACDC DCDC) for defence-grade electronic products.
• Perform circuit simulation analysis (efficiency thermal EMI/EMC) and optimization using tools like SPICE MATLAB/Simulink or similar.
• Select and size components (magnetics capacitors switching devices) for power systems under performance and cost constraints.
• Develop PCB layouts for power electronics ensuring thermal management signal integrity and compliance with high-reliability design standards.
• Define protection schemes such as over-current over-voltage short-circuit protection and implement in hardware.
• Work with test engineers to develop test plans validate prototypes and iterate designs based on test feedback (efficiency load regulation thermal performance).
• Perform reliability analysis MTBF estimation and design for lifetime in harsh environments (vibration temperature humidity).
• Collaborate on system integration: interface power modules with other subsystems ensuring proper power sequencing startup/shutdown behavior and safety.
• Support documentation: create design reports test plans test reports user manuals and maintenance guidelines.
• Stay current on power electronics technology trends new components and best practices.

Required Qualifications & Skills

• Bachelors or Masters degree in Electrical Engineering Electronics Engineering or a related discipline.
• 27 years of experience in power electronics design preferably in aerospace defence or high-reliability environments.
• Hands-on experience with circuit simulation tools (SPICE PLECS or equivalent).
• Knowledge of PCB layout for power electronics (including thermal design layout best practices).
• Experience in designing magnetics (inductors transformers) is highly desirable.
• Good understanding of EMI/EMC issues in power electronics and their mitigation.
• Experience with component selection (semiconductors capacitors passives) for high-performance power systems.
• Familiarity with power protection techniques (crowbar MOVs TVS current limiting).
• Testing and validation experience: ability to design test plans perform lab tests and debug prototypes.
• Knowledge of reliability and derating principles in electronics design.
• Strong documentation skills.
• Excellent problem-solving analytical and communication skills.
• Ability to work in a cross-functional team in a startup environment and handle multiple tasks.

Preferred (Nice-to-Have)

• Experience with switch-mode power supply (SMPS) topologies (e.g. buck boost flyback forward resonant).
• Experience in ruggedized or military-grade power supply design.
• Knowledge of safety standards such as MIL-STD DO-160 or equivalent.
• Thermal simulation experience (using tools like Ansys FloTHERM or equivalent).
• Experience with PCB manufacturing & qualification in defence or aerospace context.
• Exposure to embedded firmware for power management (optional).
• Familiarity with project management including coordinating with cross-functional teams.

What Antigone Offers

• Opportunity to work on cutting-edge defence-grade power electronics systems that contribute to Make in India.
• A collaborative and high-impact role in a growing engineering start-up.
• Access to design prototyping and testing facilities.
• Competitive compensation and opportunities for professional growth.
• Exposure to cross-domain projects in electronics engineering subsystems and product development.
