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.
