With the decarbonization and electrification boom, the necessity of advanced electrical energy conversion is more evident day after day. In this field, Celestica is focused on covering the specific needs of their clients with low-size, high-efficiency converters. Celestica is now working on a 100-kVA (apparent power) dc-ac converter for grid connection of energy-storage systems (mainly batteries). At the same time, this inverter has active filter capabilities for industrial no-linear loads or high reactive power consumption compensation.

**Company: Celestica Valencia S.A.**

Celestica is a Canadian company, world leader in the electronic manufacturing sector. The plant in Valencia focuses its activities in the Aerospace, Industrial and Healthcare areas, producing and assembling high complexity products.

The main differentiator in Valencia facilities are its design capabilities and the various engineering services that it can provide to its customers, creating a differential value beyond the regular electronic manufacturing services.

**Area/Department: Design and Engineering Services (D&ES)**

The Design and Engineering Services department in Celestica Valencia is specialized in the development of new products and electronic systems for both its customers (mostly international) and the production line within the factory.

The D&ES team is composed by more than 20 specialist engineers: electronics, software, mechanicsthat, in the end, build a multiskilled team able to carry on (almost) any kind of development projects.

The areas in which these projects are developed are mainly related with healthcare and in-vitro diagnosis, industrial, aerospace and test development.

**Name of the position**:
Engineering Trainee - Power Design

The student will collaborate in different hardware design activities related with the on-going projects, always under the guidance and supervision of the responsible engineers. This will allow the student to acquire and consolidate an extensive set of abilities in power electronics product and test system design at various levels.

Tasks to be performed will be related to power electronic circuits design and analysis: electrical diagrams, component selection, simulations, measurement and trials, evaluation of different design options and reference designs, etc

The student will also participate in the building of the needed prototypes for design verification and the development of the needed software and documental routines making use of the adequate laboratory instruments and equipment.

**Needed skills**
- Knowledge on Power electronic circuit design and analysis.
- Knowledge on Calculation and specification of the different HW elements of the inverter: magnetic and capacitive elements, protections devices, grid connection and battery elements.
- Knowledge on HW inverter layout design attending to several constraints: predefined location of certain elements, such us connector, cooling requirements, cost reduction and mechanical simplicity, assembly and fabrication optimization.
- Knowledge on the use of regular laboratory instrumentation such as multimeters, power supplies, oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, etc
- Basic programming knowledge.
- Fluent in English, both written and oral.

Others:

- Skills using Pyhton, MatLab and PSim will be valued.

**Other**:
The work atmosphere is excellent and totally open, a positive attitude constitutes a warranty for the integration in the team, not only at a professional level but also personally.

Personal skills such as teamwork, initiative, accountability and meticulousness on every assigned task will be extremely valued as well as, obviously, the motivation to learn and continuously improve.
