Model Based Controls Engineer - Motors

About the role

This is a Hybrid position and will require onsite work in Towson, MD three days a week.

Responsibilities

• Create robust, well documented electric motor models using model-based engineering tools (e.g., MATLAB/Simulink, Twin Builder).
• Develop and implement calibration processes for electromagnetic and thermal models of electric motors.
• Simulate and test (verify) these motor models to find issues in early design processes.
• Modify electro-magnetic design of the motor based on early learning to correct the issues before physical prototyping.
• Establish and keep workflows and best practices for electrical system modeling within the team.
• Generate robust motor and electrical part library that can be used by System level modelling teams.
• Mentor and train engineers in model-based design and controls engineering.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams, suppliers, and research institutions to drive technological advancements.
• Document control strategies, simulation results, and validation processes specific to Electrical System.
• Support certification and regulatory compliance for global deployment.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s or master’s degree in electrical engineering or a related field (PhD preferred).
• 5+ years of experience in electromagnetic and thermal design of motors, with ability in model-based design.
• Proven experience with 2D and 3D finite element analysis tools for motor design.
• Experience in modeling 3-phase inverters, including thermal aspects.
• Strong knowledge of electrical system thermal modeling using lumped parameter circuits.
• Ability in MATLAB/Simulink and model-based development methodologies.
• Familiarity with MIL, SIL, and HIL testing environments.
