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 MoveWe 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 ResponsibilitiesAlgorithm 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 You’ll BringExperience: 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 Join?Work 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.
