Our client is looking for a Control Systems Engineer to work to join their dynamic Design Engineering team as a Controls Engineer! You'll play a crucial role in designing, debugging, and optimizing rectifiers, converters, and inverters for cutting-edge industrial power conversion equipment. Our state-of-the-art products range from 3.5 kVA to 250 kVA. This position involves extensive hands-on work in our lab, where you'll analyze and improve control functions to meet electrical design requirements.
Key Responsibilities:
- Design and implement control algorithms and software for power electronics (rectifiers, converters, inverters).
- Test, verify, and troubleshoot control algorithms and software on power conversion hardware.
- Develop specifications and requirements for control software based on electrical characteristics.
- Document the development process and laboratory testing results.
- Enhance validation plans for control software evaluation.
- Integrate control software with other functions of the power conversion equipment.
- Stay updated on the latest control systems theories and techniques.
Qualifications:
BS in Electrical Engineering from an ABET-accredited school (MS preferred).
- 3-5 years of experience in power electronics engineering and control systems theory.
- Proficient in system modeling, simulation, and hands-on troubleshooting.
- Strong understanding of advanced power electronics topologies and PWM schemes.
- Experience with power conditioning schemes and power electronics modeling tools (LTspice, MATLAB, Simulink, PSIM).
- Familiarity with TI DSPs and developing control systems for MCUs and DSPs in C.
- Knowledge of communication protocols (SPI, CAN, I2C, Modbus TCP/IP).
- Experience with software management and version control tools (GitHub, GitLab).
- Familiarity with test equipment (oscilloscopes, digital multimeters, power analyzers, spectrum analyzers).
- Understanding of low voltage distribution systems and basic PCB design tools (Altium, PADS, EAGLE, KiCAD).
- Excellent communication skills and a proactive approach to project com
