Feedback Motion Controls Engineer

Description:
Dynamics modeling and feedback motion control algorithm design includes: throttling, braking, docking, levitation, and guidance. responsible for generating the set of control laws and state machines that will control the motion of the pod.

MINIMUM REQUIRED EXPERIENCE:

Minimum of a Master’s degree focused on motion control of a mechatronic system
Experience in classic, optimal, robust, and adaptive control techniques and implementation (loop-shaping, Lyapunov, H-infinity, sliding mode control, LQG/LTR, model adaptive identification controllers, fuzzy-logic, etc)
Experience in one or more of the following: MIMO control of highly redundant systems, stability/robustness characterization for highly non-linear systems, flexible mode analysis in the context of motion control, autonomous vehicle controls development, fault tolerant/resilient control design
Expert in Matlab, Simulink, Stateflow
Experience with configuration management tools (GIT or similar)
Deep understanding of mechanical, electromagnetic and power electronics systems
Systems and controls documentation (logical flow charts, sequence diagrams, etc.)
Trajectory planning for vehicles
Statistical estimation techniques (Kalman, extended Kalman, scented/unscented Kalman)
Familiarity with digital signal processing and sensor fusion
Additional background in the following would be helpful:

Power electronics, electromagnetic transducers, and vehicle dynamics analysis and modeling
System and state identification techniques (extended state observers)
Low level implementation of digital controllers
Controls software development for complex distributed systems on multiple target platforms with safety-critical applications using C, FreeRTOS, and/or VxWorks
Software-in-the-loop and hardware-in-the-loop testing of embedded systems
Validating computational models through experimental data analysis and system identification
Experience Motor control/commutation algorithm
Completion of at least one commercial vehicle (manned/un-manned) programm or motion control product (in robotics, automation/fabrication, machine tools) with significant ownership in one or more of the following categories: system dynamics modeling, motion control algorithm design and implementation, sensor integration and calibration, integration of motor and power electronics.

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE:

Completion of at least two commercial vehicle programmes (manned/un-manned; drones or transportation) or motion control products (in robotics, automation/fabrication, machine tools) with a leadership role in one of the following categories: system dynamics modeling, motion control algorithm design and implementation, sensor integration and calibration, integration of motor and power electronics.
