What is the difference between Part Time Power Electronics Professor vs Part Time Electrical Engineering Instructor?

AspectPart Time Power Electronics ProfessorPart Time Electrical Engineering Instructor
Required CredentialsMaster's or PhD in Electrical Engineering or related field, specialized in power electronicsBachelor's or Master's in Electrical Engineering or related field, with teaching experience
Work EnvironmentAcademic institutions, classrooms, labsColleges, technical schools, online platforms
Employer & Industry UsageUniversities, colleges, research institutionsEducational institutions, vocational schools, online education providers

While both roles involve teaching electrical engineering topics, the Part Time Power Electronics Professor specializes in power electronics and often requires advanced degrees and research experience. The Part Time Electrical Engineering Instructor may teach broader electrical engineering courses with less emphasis on power electronics, making the former more specialized in the power electronics field.

Job description

Founded in 2015, Shield AI is a venture-backed deep-tech company with the mission of protecting service members and civilians with intelligent systems. Its products include the V-BAT and X-BAT aircraft, Hivemind Enterprise, and the Hivemind Vision product lines. With offices and facilities across the U.S., Europe, the Middle East, and the Asia-Pacific, Shield AI’s technology actively supports operations worldwide. For more information, visit www.shield.ai. Follow Shield AI on LinkedIn, X, Instagram, and YouTube. 

Job Description:
Shield AI is redefining autonomous aviation with cutting-edge AI and GPS/RF-denied navigation technologies. Now, we’re building our next-generation aircraft, XBAT, like no other—one that will push the boundaries of innovation and performance.
 
We are looking for an entry-level Power Electronics Engineer who is excited to help bring X-BAT’s next-generation power systems to first flight. In this role, you will own a meaningful project directly tied to our power architecture critical path, while receiving direct mentorship from senior power and electrical engineers. We value first-principles thinking, hands-on engineering, and extreme ownership.
What you'll do:
  • Own a power electronics design that directly impacts X-BAT system performance and major flight test milestones, supported by a senior engineer who provides technical guidance and review.
  • Contribute to the full hardware lifecycle including concept development, modeling, worst-case analysis, schematic capture, simulation, prototyping, bring-up, verification, integration, and flight test support.
  • Design and analyze low-voltage and high-voltage power systems including DC-DC converters, inverters, motor controllers, battery systems, power distribution, and protection circuits.
  • Design systems across power ranges from <1 kW low-power loads to >10 kW high-power applications while balancing efficiency, thermal constraints, EMI/EMC performance, and reliability.
  • Partner with ECAD engineers on PCB layout for power density, thermal performance, EMI mitigation, and manufacturability.
  • Execute hands-on board bring-up, debug, root-cause analysis, and validation using oscilloscopes, power supplies, electronic loads, and other test equipment.
  • Support environmental, stress, and qualification testing (HALT, vibration, temperature cycling) for aerospace-grade reliability.
  • Collaborate closely with Mechanical, Embedded, Software, Production, and Aircraft teams to ensure robust system integration and clear interface ownership.
  • Drive disciplined engineering practices including documentation, risk reduction, and closing the loop between analysis and test results.
Required qualifications:
  • B.S. in Electrical Engineering or equivalent.
  • Strong technical fundamentals in circuits, electronics, and power systems.
  • Hands-on experience (coursework, labs, clubs, or internships) with power electronics such as converters, motor drivers, batteries, or high-power systems.
  • Familiarity with electrical design tools (Altium, KiCad, etc.).
  • Experience using lab equipment such as oscilloscopes, power supplies, e-loads, and multimeters.
  • Participation in an engineering team/club or hands-on project experience.
