Working Student (fmd) Embedded Control

Munich - Germany

Monthly Salary: Not Disclosed

Posted on: 5 days ago

Vacancies: 1 Vacancy

Job Summary

You will work with NXPs Industrial Systems Innovation team on advanced motor control reasearch for Robotics used case. As motor applications become more deeply integrated into complex motion-control systems the embedded processors controlling electric motors take on increasingly complex tasks. Our work explores how these developments impact system architectures.

You will support the team by:

Porting next-generation control algorithms to embedded hardware.
Connecting and integrating various sensors data sources and communication devices into embedded setupscovering both physical integration and firmware.
Supporting experienced engineers in evaluating control algorithms through simulation emulation and hardware testing.

Your Profile

You are an enrolled student with a focus on Electrical Engineering (or a related field) ideally in the early stages of your Masters degree
You have good knowledge of embedded programming and debugging on MCUs and/or MPUs. Experience with real-time embedded development (C/C) motor-control peripherals timers PWM and low-latency ISR design etc are essential.
You have knowledge of electric machines power electronics and/or electric-drive modeling and controlor are motivated to learn these use cases.
e.g. FOC for BLDC/PMSM based Servos and observer design for sensorless estimation. Understanding of GaN vs. silicon MOSFETs. Familiarity with motor drivers and current/voltage sensing.
You are available to work onsite in our Munich lab (near U2 Moosfeld).
You are comfortable and motivated to support the development of a full research and simulation test setup.
You are motivated to work across electrical mechanical and software components as needed.
Exposure to Python Hardware-in-the-Loop (HiL) environments (e.g. Speedgoat) and ROS2/Gazebo is advantageous but not essential.
You are fluent in English both spoken and written.

What NXP offers:

An attractive hourly wage of 18.90
30 vacation days per year
Flexible working hours
The possibility to work in a hybrid setup
Access to an on-site cafeteria
Networking initiatives and Employee Resource Groups such as Young Community No Extra Planet NXP Equal Women in NXP and more fostering both professional and personal exchange

Please note:
The successful candidate may/will be responsible for security related tasks.
The assignment may/will be in scope of security certifications therefore a conscious and reliable way of working is necessary.
