Power Electronics Control System Engineer

Job Title:

Power Electronics Control System Engineer

Job Type: Full-Time

We are seeking a Power Electronics Control System Engineer to develop and validate electrification control solutions at both component and system levels using a model-based design approach. The ideal candidate will have hands-on experience in control algorithm development, power electronics simulation, and system-level validation including HIL and laboratory testing.

Key Responsibilities:

- Develop electrification control solutions for power electronics and electric drive systems using model-based design methodologies.
- Design, analyze, and implement control algorithms for power converters and electric motor systems.
- Perform system-level modeling and simulation using MATLAB, Simulink, and Simscape.
- Conduct electric drive and vehicle system simulations to support control development and performance evaluation.
- Validate control strategies through simulation, Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL), laboratory, and field testing.
- Support auto-code generation and embedded implementation on microcontrollers and/or FPGAs.
- Develop and refine system requirements in collaboration with cross-functional stakeholders.
- Participate in system integration, debugging, and performance optimization activities.
- Document control strategies, validation results, and system performance metrics.
- Support continuous improvement initiatives in control system development processes.

Required Qualifications:

- Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Physics, or related field.
- 1+ years of experience in power electronics or control algorithm development (academic research experience considered).
- Proficiency in MATLAB, Simulink, and Simscape.
- Experience in simulating power electronics, electric machines, and/or control systems.
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
- Effective written and verbal communication skills in English.

Preferred Qualifications:

- Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Physics Engineering, or Mechanical Engineering with a focus on power electronics and/or control systems.
- Hands-on laboratory or vehicle testing experience with power electronics or electric motors.

- Experience with Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) testing.

- Experience with embedded systems, auto-code generation, and microcontroller/FPGA implementation.
- Working knowledge of version control systems and Agile development methodologies.

- Experience with advanced control techniques (observers, model predictive control, filter design, etc.).
- Experience in power electronics hardware or software design.
