Motor Control Software Engineer Warwickshire, UK 60-75k + bonus + benefits

This is a fantastic opportunity for a control software engineer with excellent experience of motor control. The role will involve software development of motor control algorithms for electrified powertrain systems for a broad variety e-mobility application. Based in Leamington Spa.

Required: Senior control software engineer

  • Experience of developing motor control algorithms for electrified vehicle powertrain systems
  • Excellent proven capabilities in either embedded software (C coding) or model based software development (Matlab, Simulink, etc)
  • Experience of requirement capture and developing software architecture would be useful
  • Strong communication skills
  • Proven experience of developing motor control software for vehicle-based platforms within various mobility sectors (e.g. automotive, rail, aerospace, off-highway, military vehicles, etc)

In this role you will be involved with taking customer projects (e.g. electric vehicle propulsion / powertrain systems) from concept to prototype. This means being able to develop systems from scratch, bringing solutions up through hardware integration and lab testing to form validated prototypes ready for customer handover.

This role requires experience of motor control algorithm development utilising embedded C (hand coding) software development OR model-based software development (Matlab / Simulink).

A wider systems appreciation combined with experience of several e-mobility domains (e.g. automotive, aerospace, off-highway, marine, etc) would be preferred.

Skills / experience required: Senior motor control software engineer

  • A good degree or ideally masters in a relevant subject (e.g. electronics, computer science, automotive engineering, etc)
  • At least 5 years of post-academic experience developing motor control software for electric vehicles.
  • Good evidence of model based software development using Matlab / Simulink OR embedded C
  • Experience of autocode tools (e.g. Embedded Coder) would be useful.
  • Evidence of innovation and creative problem solving for relevant engineering projects
  • Strong technical ability with the development of either embedded software (embedded C) and model based software (Matlab / Simulink)
  • Some embedded software competence is required (understand device drivers, h/w architecture)
  • Strong motor control algorithm development experience is required

Our client is looking for senior embedded software engineer with a relevant degree to help take proof of concepts through to prototype and into production ready designs. Embedded C programming experience is required or good model based software development (Matlab / Simulink) experience.

Experience of automotive, marine, aerospace or other vehicle electrification / motor control product development would be required.

This senior motor control software engineer role is based onsite (3 days per week) and is commutable from Birmingham. Redditch, Solihull, Nuneaton, Hinckley, Leamington Spa, Banbury, Daventry, Rugby, Coventry and Lutterworth.
