Senior Embedded Motor Control Engineer

Senior Embedded Motor Control Engineer (Robotics Automotive & Aerospace)

Location: Irvine CA Schedule: 9:00 AM 4:30 PM Monday Friday

The Role:

Build the Systems That Actually Move

We are seeking a Senior Embedded Motor Control Software Engineer to own the control system architecture and lead the implementation of high-performance algorithms for linear and rotary actuators. This is a high-stakes inner-loop role where you will own the 20 kHz current control loop as well as velocity and position control running on real-time microcontrollers.

Key Responsibilities

• Algorithm Leadership: Lead the design and implementation of motor control software for PMSM and BLDC motors.
• Embedded Implementation: Optimize PWM modules ADC sampling and interrupt timing on TI C2000 (specifically F280034SPN) or comparable MCUs.
• Modeling & Simulation: Use model-based design (MATLAB/Simulink) to build motor inverter and actuator models that inform controller structure and gains.
• Hands-on Tuning: Perform rule-based tuning for current velocity and position loops while analyzing lab data to refine stability margins.
• Integration & Test: Execute MIL SIL and HIL test strategies and lead hardware bring-up and debugging in the lab.

What Youll Bring

• Experience: Minimum of 8 years in embedded motor control development.
• Deep Technical Knowledge: Strong understanding of Control Theory Power Electronics and Electric Machines.
• Language Proficiency: Strong proficiency in Embedded C/C for real-time applications.
• Hardware Intuition: Proven ability to integrate and debug software across hardware and firmware boundaries in a lab setting.

Why JoinWork alongside elite engineering talent on a rare 9:00 AM 4:30 PM schedule. We offer competitive compensation including equity participation and full health/401K benefits.
