Role Summary

We are looking for a Model-Based Development Engineer with strong experience in control laws, electric motor control, traction inverters, electrical inverters, and field-oriented control. The candidate will be responsible for developing, simulating, validating, and supporting embedded control software for inverter and motor-drive applications using MATLAB/Simulink and related model-based development tools.

The role requires a strong understanding of power electronics, electric machines, control algorithms, and embedded software development for real-time control systems.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and maintain control algorithms for electrical inverters, traction inverters, and motor-drive systems.
• Design and implement motor control strategies such as Field-Oriented Control, torque control, speed control, current control, and voltage control.
• Develop control laws for power electronics and electric drive applications.
• Build, simulate, and validate models using MATLAB, Simulink, and Stateflow.
• Perform model-based design activities including simulation, MIL, SIL, and HIL testing.
• Generate embedded code from Simulink models using tools such as Embedded Coder.
• Support integration of control algorithms into embedded targets and inverter control platforms.
• Analyze system behavior, tune control loops, and optimize controller performance.
• Work on current sensing, position/speed feedback, PWM generation, SVPWM, protection logic, and fault handling.
• Develop and validate control software for PMSM, induction motors, or other traction motor technologies.
• Support inverter commissioning, calibration, debugging, and testing on test benches or real hardware.
• Collaborate with hardware, software, systems, and testing teams.
• Prepare technical documentation, design descriptions, test reports, and calibration guidelines.
• Ensure compliance with applicable software development processes, coding guidelines, and quality standards.

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics, Control Engineering, Power Electronics, or a related field.
• Strong experience with MATLAB/Simulink for model-based design.
• Good knowledge of electric motor control and inverter control systems.
• Practical understanding of FOC, Clarke/Park transformations, PI controllers, PWM, SVPWM, and control loop tuning.
• Knowledge of electrical inverters, traction inverters, DC-link systems, gate driving concepts, and power electronics basics.
• Experience with real-time embedded control systems.
• Ability to read and understand electrical schematics, control block diagrams, and system requirements.
• Good understanding of sensors used in motor control, such as current sensors, voltage sensors, encoders, resolvers, and Hall sensors.
• Experience with simulation, debugging, calibration, and validation of control algorithms.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with PMSM, induction motor, or synchronous reluctance motor control.
• Experience with IEC6108, ISO 26262, MISRA C, or automotive software development processes.
• Experience with code generation using Simulink Embedded Coder.
• Experience with MIL, SIL, PIL, or HIL validation environments.
• Experience with tools such as dSPACE, Vector CANoe, ETAS INCA, CANalyzer, or similar.
• Knowledge of CAN, CAN FD, UDS, or automotive communication protocols.
