Job Description:

We are seeking a Full-Stack Motor Control Engineer who combines strong control-theory expertise with deep embedded-firmware capability and a practical understanding of inverter hardware and sensors. You will contribute to the complete motor control stack — from modeling and algorithm design through embedded implementation and lab validation. This role requires a balance of analytical depth, hands-on debugging, and system-level awareness, working closely with cross-functional teams to deliver robust, high-performance actuation solutions for our humanoid.

Job Responsibility:

  • Architect, implement, and tune current control loops for PMSM and BLDC actuators
  • Develop, optimize and debug real-time embedded firmware in C/C++ for MCUs/DSPs (e.g., STM32)
  • Design and validate observers and estimators for primary controls and for enhanced diagnostics and fallback strategies
  • Design and validate state machines for control modes and fault handling
  • Model control systems and simulate dynamics using MATLAB/Simulink or Python
  • Bring up and debug custom inverter hardware, current sensors, and encoders
  • Develop automated test routines for dynamic response, torque linearity, and efficiency mapping for motor-dynamometers and actuator-dynamometers
  • Integrate high-speed telemetry and data-logging for system identification and control verification
  • Collaborate cross-functionally to integrate actuators into robotic subsystems and end-effectors
  • Support continuous improvement of control robustness and performance

Requirements:

  • 6+ years of hands-on experience developing embedded systems for high-performance motion control
  • Proficiency in embedded C/C++ for real-time control on MCUs/DSPs
  • Strong foundation in motor control theory (FOC, dq transformations, loop design, field-weakening)
  • Solid understanding of ADC/PWM synchronization, ISR timing and task-scheduling
  • Experience with motor drivers, inverters, current sensing, and encoder interfaces
  • Familiarity with digital signal processing and frequency-domain analysis for control diagnostics
  • Proficiency in MATLAB/Simulink or Python for modeling and data analysis
  • Skilled with lab equipment for validation and software debugging
  • Excellent communication and planning skills
  • Resilient and effective in fast-paced, challenging environments
  • MS or PhD in electrical engineering, controls, or a related field

Nice to have:

  • Exposure to functional-safety or high-reliability firmware design
  • Prior work on robotic actuation systems, industrial drives, or precision motion platforms
  • Working knowledge of communication buses and protocols like Ethernet, Ethercat, Serial, SPI and I2C
  • Expertise in torque, position and velocity closed loop control
