We are seeking a talented, highly motivated, and results‑driven Controls Engineer with expertise in control systems specification, design, architecture, programming, and verification. This role focuses on delivering innovative and robust control solutions across a broad range of HVAC and refrigeration systems.

The Controls Engineer will work with global, cross‑disciplinary teams to design, develop, test, troubleshoot, and support control systems throughout the full lifecycle—from conceptual design and model‑based development to lab validation and field trial support. This position offers the opportunity to engage with multiple business units and contribute to a diverse product portfolio.

If you are passionate about developing high‑quality control systems, enjoy working in collaborative environments, and are driven to deliver solutions that enhance customer experience, we would love to hear from you.

• Develop control solutions for HVAC and refrigeration system, ensuring alignment with customer and technical requirements, industry standards, and best practices.
• Support system‑level requirement definition and low‑level control requirements decomposition.
• Perform dynamic analysis of non‑linear systems in development of control algorithms including system identification, cont rollability, robustness, stability, and optimization.
• Develop and execute unit tests and integration tests for control systems to ensure functionality and performance.
• Participate in hands‑on testing in the psychrometric laboratory, analyzing results to guide refinements in plant model fidelity and control algorithms.
• Apply best‑in‑class strategies to push testing further upstream in the development lifecycle (MIL/SIL/HIL).
• Support the development and calibration of physics‑based plant models.
• Contribute to project execution by supporting the setting of clear technical goals, managing timelines, and collaborating with teams to ensure timely and quality delivery.

• Bachelor of Science in Electrical, Control Systems, Mechanical, or Chemical Engineering with 3+ years of controls system experience, OR M.S. or Ph.D. in Electrical, Control Systems, Mechanical, or Chemical Engineering.

• Knowledge of controls engineering foundations, including feedback control, linear/nonlinear control, multivariable control, system identification, and optimization.
• Experience in the use of Matlab‑based toolsets to design, implement, and test embedded controls algorithms.
• Experience with industrial control applications.
• Excellent communication, interpersonal skills, and the ability to interface with cross‑functional teams and external customers.
• Expertise in heat transfer, two‑phase flow, and thermodynamic cycle analytical skills.
• Experience with vapor‑compression cycles, including heat exchangers and turbo machinery compression technologies.
• Experience in requirements management and system integration, specifically test strategies across model‑in‑the‑loop (MIL), software‑in‑the‑loop (SIL), and hardware‑in‑the‑loop (HIL) domains.
• Strong technical writing skills with ability to produce clear, concise documentation.
• Experience with software development lifecycle best practices, including version control, change management, release management.
• Familiar with PLC or AUTOSAR styled embedded architecture.
• Familiar with system optimization techniques and their…
