Model Controls Engineer – Motors

Model Based Design Engineer – Electric Motors (Remote – USA Based)

You will be a key member of our internal Model Based Controls design team, responsible for the following:

• Creating robust, well-documented electric motor models using model‑based engineering tools (e.g., MATLAB/Simulink, Twin Builder).
• Developing and implementing calibration processes for electromagnetic and thermal models of electric motors.
• Simulating and testing (verifying) these motor models to find issues in early design processes.
• Modifying the electro‑magnetic design of the motor based on early learning to correct issues before physical prototyping.
• Establishing and maintaining workflows and best practices for electrical system modeling within the team.
• Generating robust motor and electrical part library that can be used by system‑level modelling teams.
• Mentoring and training engineers in model‑based design and controls engineering.
• Collaborating with cross‑functional teams, suppliers, and research institutions to drive technological advancements.
• Documenting control strategies, simulation results, and validation processes specific to electrical systems.
• Supporting certification and regulatory compliance for global deployment.

• Bachelor’s or master’s degree in electrical engineering or a related field (PhD preferred).
• 5+ years of experience in electromagnetic and thermal design of motors, with ability in model‑based design.
• Proven experience with 2D and 3D finite element analysis tools for motor design.
• Experience in modeling 3‑phase inverters, including thermal aspects.
• Strong knowledge of electrical system thermal modeling using lumped parameter circuits.
• Ability in MATLAB/Simulink and model‑based development methodologies.
• Familiarity with MIL, SIL, and HIL testing environments.
• Experience with field‑oriented control methods for brushless motor control (highly preferred).
• Knowledge of modeling of lithium‑ion battery systems is a plus.

• Medical, dental, life, vision, disability, 401(k), Employee Stock Purchase Plan, paid time off, and tuition reimbursement.
• Discounts on Stanley Black & Decker tools and other partner programs.
• Competitive salary range of $90,000 – $144,900 per year.
