MCU Architect

Motor Control Unit Software Architect will be responsible for firmware development of next generation power converter for Electric Vehicles. You will be a member of the team developing hardware and software for Motor controller including implementation and testing

Responsibilities

• Model, design, implement, integrate, test and benchmark the motor control algorithms for current and upcoming

  EVs

  .
• Understand, drive design and implement motor controller functionality, behaviours, and core control algorithms for types of electric motors, such as: PMSM, IPM, IM, SRM and Multiphase Motor.
• Help define requirements for motor control software and interfacing hardware components including voltage and current sensors, power stages, speed sensors.
• Responsible for calculating, selecting and designing software solutions for Electric Vehicle projects.
• Develop different layers of firmware as per architecture, in context of an RTOS.
• Develop UDS based Bootloader for software update and EOL for parameter update.
• Develop MCU software in accordance to power train functional safety requirements ISO26262.

• TESTING & DEBUGGING

  Debugging: Ensure error free software is flashed onto MCU with the help of a bootloader.
• Testing: Review developers’ test cases to perform component level tests.
• Testing: Create and perform system level test plans with system integrators.
• Documentation and Reporting: Ensure proper documentation of the firmware and software developed. Document data collected for parameter estimation. Maintain a comprehensive test case matrix to track completion of functional requirements of MCU.
