In Lisbon, SWJ has installed a Competence Center for Embedded Development.
We cover Embedded Software, Electronics Design and Testing (V&V).
Our projects focus on areas of high impact, including Automotive/Electrified mobility, Smart factories and IoT.
We are seeking a Model-Based Design (MBD) Engineer specialized in Motor Control. You will be responsible for designing, simulating, and implementing complex control algorithms for BLDC and PMSM motors using a cascaded control approach.
We believe in "hiring the best and keeping them" or, in other words, we're looking for people with good brains and good attitude (a good attitude comes a long way)
About our ideal candidate:
You observe machines around you as if it they were ran by a Matlab simulation.
You are experienced in using Matlab and Simulink to control motors (BLDC/PMSM preferred) and are familiar with cascaded control loops, and finding and tuning control parameters for these.
You should also have a good competence in C coding, since all our work is implemented in Embedded Microcontrollers.
You like working along like-minded people and thrive working in a group.
Desired competences
* Control Modeling: Develop high-fidelity Simulink models for BLDC/PMSM motors, implementing cascaded control loops (Position, Speed, and Current/Torque).
* Tuning & Analysis: Determine and tune PID/PI parameters and observer gains according to varying load profiles and dynamic requirements.
* Implementation: Bridge the gap between simulation and hardware. Depending on each sue case, you could be using MATLAB Embedded Coder or manually porting control logic into existing Embedded C code .
* Validation: Debug and refine models based on real-world hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing and experimental data.
* Collaboration: Work closely with the firmware team to integrate control algorithms into MCU-based power electronics.
Your daily responsibilities
* Expert MATLAB/Simulink Skills: Proven experience in modeling physical systems and control logic.
* Control Theory Mastery: Deep understanding of:
* FOC (Field Oriented Control),
* Park/Clarke transforms, and
* Cascaded loop architecture.
* Motor Expertise: Familiarity with motor control toolboxes and the nuances of BLDC/PMSM dynamics.
* Embedded C Proficiency: Strong C coding skills for microcontrollers; ability to read/write hardware-level code.
* Language: Command of the English is mandatory. Portuguese is a plus.
Work place and model
This is a hybrid work position: The Company's offices are in Lisbon, Portugal, close to the Gare do Oriente transport hub (Parque das Nações).
The typical workweek is composed of 3 days in-office and 2 days working from home.
