Description

Lead a small engineering teams (1-3 people) in the development, test and release of embedded control firmware working with global cross-functional engineering team to launch new products including SiC three-phase UPS's, Lithium Ion energy storage systems for maintaining critical loads such as datacenters. Review product requirements and develop system control architecture, collaborate with system engineer to select topology and overall design for new products. Evaluate alternative control architecture solutions to meet customer and product development requirements factoring in cost, performance, and schedule. Establish system & sub-system level control requirements from functional specifications and application needs. Develop mathematical models and algorithms for advanced DSP controls of electronic power conversion products. Apply controls theory to design controllers to achieve target product performance. Develop simulations using MATLAB/Simulink simulation environment and verify control designs through simulations. Validate designs using Real time simulation systems such as OPAL-RT. Analyze, design and assist in testing/troubleshooting control system software used in uninterruptible power systems and other power quality products. Apply best engineering practices and decision making for advanced technical problem solving. Leverage your skill and experience by giving guidance and leadership to other technical project team members. Work with global product development teams to solve problems related to performance, functionality, safety, reliability, quality and component availability. Develop and optimize HDL code (e.g., VHDL/Verilog) for implementing digital control algorithms on FPGA. Perform synthesis, place-and-route, and timing closure using industry-standard FPGA toolchains (e.g., Xilinx Vivado, Intel Quartus). Support board-level bring-up and debugging of FPGA-based systems using tools such as oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and JTAG debuggers. BS in Electrical or Computer Engineering from an accredited institution with minimum 6 years of work experience in real-time Embedded software Development for power electronics (480V or higher) OR MS in Electrical or Computer Engineering from an accredited institution with minimum 3 years of work experience in real-time Embedded software Development for power electronics (480V or higher) Design experience with power electronic products. Experience in embedded firmware development and programming in C/C++. Experience developing digital controls and algorithms for AC and DC power conversion. Experience using Hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation. Experience with FPGA-based implementation of digital control algorithms and PWM modulation techniques. Familiarity with integrating FPGA designs with microcontrollers or DSPs in mixed-signal embedded systems. Ability to analyze and troubleshoot analog and digital control circuitry. Experience with real time operating systems (RTOS) Strong understanding of analog & digital control theory along with digital filter designs. Extensive knowledge of MATLAB/Simulink tools including Control Toolbox, StateFlow, Optimization Verification & Filter Designs. Experience in design of closed loop control systems. Ability to simulate, analyze, and troubleshoot using HIL systems, preferably OPAL-RT. Knowledge of three phase electrical power systems Proficiency in HDL languages (VHDL, Verilog). Familiarity with industry-standard FPGA toolchains, including synthesis, simulation, and timing analysis tools (e.g., Xilinx Vivado, Intel Quartus, ModelSim). Experience debugging FPGA designs using lab equipment such as oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and JTAG interfaces. Excellent verbal/ written communications. Position requires an individual who is self-motivated, self-managed, team-oriented, proactive, attentive to detail, task oriented, and able to overcome obstacles to meet schedule requirements. Work in lab environment around high voltage where safety awareness is critical.
