We are looking for a Control software engineer (embedded) for our client.

You'll contribute to:

- Developing advanced control solutions for electrical energy systems, power converters, and industrial drives.

- In this role, you will work at the intersection of embedded software development, power engineering, power electronics and control systems.

What We're Looking For:

We are looking for a person with a combination of the two following expertise areas. Knowledge / experience in both categories is mandatory, but the position is also suitable for a freshly graduated person when the background matches.

1) Knowledge of embedded software engineering

a. Must have:

- Experience in C, C++, Python

- Knowledge of Git version control

- Basic understanding of SW testing methods

b. Seen as an asset:

- Experience in unit testing, HIL testing, continuous integration

- Knowledge of Azure DevOps, Jenkins, static code analysis

- Embedded SW development in large organizations with multiple teams

2) Knowledge of control engineering in the context of electrical power engineering

a. Must have:

- Knowledge of some of the following application areas: Power conversion, Solar power systems, Battery energy storage systems, Wind power applications, Microgrids and smart grids

- Understanding of concepts such as inverters, rectifiers, DC/DC converters and switching power supplies

- Experience in designing control loops, stability and dynamic performance analysis, and understanding feedback and feedforward control principles

- Understanding of how power converters are controlled in practice

- Understanding of the measurements and feedback signals required for converter control

- Knowledge of typical control loops used in power electronic systems (e.g. current, voltage and power control loops)

- Ability to work at the interface of embedded software and power electronics

Important:

We are specifically looking for candidates with a combination of embedded software engineering and power electronics/control engineering expertise.



General software development experience alone is not sufficient, even if it has been gained in projects related to power electronic products. Likewise, experience around power electronics without practical understanding of converter control principles is not enough.



Relevant backgrounds may include Electrical Power Engineering, Power Electronics, Energy Systems, Control Engineering or equivalent hands-on industry experience.



Examples of particularly relevant academic coursework, research or professional experience:

- Power converter control

- PMSM / motor control

- Field-Oriented Control (FOC)

- Control algorithm development

- Battery energy storage systems

- Industrial drives

- Inverters, rectifiers and DC/DC converters
