We always wanted to be more than just a place to work. What we do and how all our team members feel is meaningful to us and we want each to feel like part of a big family.
We are looking for a Control Systems Engineer that will develop control systems and corresponding state estimation algorithms which enhance the performance, safety and comfort of multi-motor electric and hybrid vehicles. The key to successful control system design is also understanding the vehicle behavior at a higher, system level, as well as the interactions between various vehicle systems.
In addition to achieving specific performance targets, vehicle control must also produce a superior driver feeling. You will work closely with test drivers on automotive proving grounds and racetracks where you will validate and tune your software.
1. Responsibilities:
- Developing control algorithms for electric and hybrid vehicles and their components
- Developing state estimation algorithms for electric and hybrid vehicles and their components
- Developing mathematical models of dynamic systems in the vehicle
- Performing Model-in-the-loop and Hardware-in-the-loop testing
- Validating control algorithms on the vehicle
- Analysis of test data
- Documenting test results and producing technical documentation
- Communicating and coordinating with people of different technical backgrounds (e.g. mechanical and electrical engineers, test engineers, test drivers etc.)
- Travel domestically and internationally as required
2. Requirements:
- Knowledge of Vehicle dynamics and automotive systems
- Knowledge of classical and non-linear control theory
- Knowledge of system identification techniques
- Knowledge of linear and non-linear estimation techniques
- Experience with model-based-design in MATLAB Simulink
- Practical / Hands-on experience with controllers
- Understanding the dynamics of mechanical, electrical, and thermal systems and experience in modelling these
- Ability to work in a dynamic environment
- Good knowledge of English in writing and speaking
3.Considered as an advantage
- Experience with hybrid powertrain control systems
- Experience with chassis control systems
- Knowledge of optimization algorithms
- Experience with Model Predictive Control
- Experience in working with automotive systems such as ABS, ESC, TCS, cruise control, creep, and one[1]pedal drive.
- Experience with IPG CarMaker, VI Grade and similar software
- Experience working with CAN bus protocols
- Understanding of ISO-26262 Standard
- Experience in version control (git)
- Experience in requirements and test management
4.What we are like and what we offer
- We operate in a fast-paced and challenging environment
- You will have the opportunity to work on world-class solutions with cutting-edge technology
- We work a lot, but also know how to have fun (fun teambuilding, crazy company parties, kitchen and relaxation zones around the office, free coffee/tea and fresh fruit, etc.)
- Family-like and open work environment (subsidies for kindergartens, Christmas parties for kids, and presents for kids)
- Financial subsidy for transportation
- Additional and supplementary healthcare covered
- Internal educations program
- Psychological counseling
- Dog-friendly office
- Flexible working hours and work-from-home days – up to 12 days of remote work per month
- Discounts at stores and clinics – for humans and pets 😊
If you are a creative, problem solving, open-minded, highly-motivated individual and you love a fast-paced environment and are up for the challenge – where were you hiding?
