Sr Staff Field Applications Engineer (FAE)

We are seeking for a highly motivated Field Applications Engineer (Analog & Power) to join our team in the UK area, ideally close to our Bourne End or Swindon offices and to support customers in UK and Ireland. You will serve as the technical lead for analog & power solutions, supporting system-level design engagements across key customers, including pre- and post-design support activities such as new technology introduction, component selection, technical resource guidance, schematic & layout reviews, and issue resolution to help drive design-in to design-win success.

The FAE will

- Influence customer analog & power architecture development, including power tree design, device selection, and system optimization, performing technical design reviews, root-cause analysis, and hands-on debug for analog and power-related issues.
- Drive new product evaluations and competitive positioning for Renesas analog and power portfolio (PMICs, DC/DC, GaN & MOSFETs, LDOs, battery management, signal chain, transceivers, op amps, optocouplers, nor flashes etc…).
- Support system-level design integration, ensuring alignment between Analog, Power, Processor, and Connectivity subsystems.
- Provide direct technical guidance to customers to accelerate designs from concept to production revenue.
- Deliver field feedback to product divisions, influencing roadmap, feature prioritization, and system solution gaps.
- Being part of sales team, work closely with peers to achieve business targets.
- Develop and present customer trainings, technical seminars, and internal enablement content.

Success in this role requires the ability to translate component-level expertise into system-level solutions and business successes, while building strong, trusted relationships with customers and internal teams.
