TL;DR · Project Engineer, Control Firmware

Project Engineer, Control Firmware joins the Firmware Development Team to develop, maintain, and test embedded software features specifically related to motor controls. This role involves designing motor control models for synchronous, induction, and permanent magnet motors while ensuring code is optimized for performance, memory requirements, and safety. The engineer will perform model-based coding in MATLAB/Simulink and interface that code with other embedded modules using C/C++. Daily responsibilities include participating in requirement specifications, conducting code reviews, investigating anomalies, and testing code across various stages from bench simulations to implementation on variable frequency drives and motors. The position requires expertise in motor control algorithms, power converter types such as 3 phase VSI and CSI, and converter modulation strategies. Work is performed within an agile/scrum environment to solve complex technical challenges in drive systems modeling.

What you'll do

  • Design motor control models in MATLAB/Simulink for synchronous, induction, and permanent magnet motors.
  • Develop features for embedded software modules using C/C++.
  • Simulate and test model-based code on bench systems and actual variable frequency drives.
  • Optimize code for performance, memory requirements, and simplicity.
  • Validate code for reliability and safety standards.
  • Lead the investigation of technical anomalies and the exploration of new control algorithms.
  • Participate in requirement specifications and peer code reviews.
  • Communicate complex technical information in both verbal and written formats.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's Degree or equivalent years of relevant work experience.
  • Legal authorization to work in the United States.
  • 12+ years of related experience is preferred.
  • Master of Science in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or equivalent is preferred.
  • Twelve years of experience in embedded software development with an emphasis on model-based design and real-time systems is preferred.
  • Experience with the development of motor drives or power converters and their associated control systems is preferred.
  • Proficiency in model-based development using MATLAB/Simulink and knowledge of C/C++.
  • Knowledge of motor control algorithms, power converter types, and experience working in a SAFe environment are preferred.
