Job Description
We are looking for an experienced Control Systems Engineer to join a growing team, working on the development of advanced control systems for complex electromechanical, optical, aerospace, and robotic applications.
As a Control Systems Engineer, you will:
- Deliver technical documentation and provide technical support to the Software team to implement control algorithms.
- Develop and maintain Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) real-time simulations to test control software requirements against simulation models.
- Perform trade-off analysis of different control concepts, components, and system architectures.
- Maintain pointing budgets and ensure control systems meet overall system requirements.
- Work closely with multidisciplinary engineering teams to develop, test, and verify advanced control solutions.
The successful candidate will have:
- At least 3 years of relevant commercial experience developing control systems for complex electromechanical, optical, aerospace, or robotic systems.
- A degree in Control Engineering, Electrical or Electronic Engineering, Robotics, Aerospace Engineering, Physics, or a related technical discipline.
- Practical experience designing, modelling, implementing, and testing control algorithms for dynamic systems.
- Proficiency with MATLAB and Simulink, or equivalent modelling and simulation platforms.
- The ability to translate system-level requirements into control-system requirements, test cases, and verification activities.
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to diagnose complex system behaviour using test data and simulations.
