Have what it takes? Join us.

If you have a passion for recreational boating and want to join the product development team at the market leader, this is your chance. While significant gains continue to be made in the development of higher power density—more efficient marine engines—the industry is also rapidly adopting high voltage electric drives for marine propulsion.   Electric drives will enable new forms of hybrid and full electric propulsion systems to meet new regulations and deliver a broad range of new customer benefits.  Join our team to be a part of the development of clean, quiet, efficient, environmentally friendly marine propulsion systems.  

The Recreation Marine Battery Charging Architect will be part of our Advanced Engineering team driving impact and expertise in the application of high voltage (350+ VDC) subsystems and critical components across Brunswick:

• High torque density electric machines
• Power inverters
• Motor control software
• DC-DC converters
• High voltage battery packs
• Advanced battery technology
• Battery Management Systems
• EMI/EMC compliance
• Shielded double insulation high gage cabling
• High current connector systems
• Power distribution
• Isolation monitoring
• Mobile power generation
• Shore Power grid interfaces
• Battery charging systems: AC and DC fast chargers

As a member of this team, you will support our product development teams company wide and engage with university research, national labs, and new technology suppliers to lead the assessment and application of advanced electric drive technologies suitable for marine applications.
