Job DescriptionJob Description
Are you passionate about designing control systems that bring precision and stability to complex machinery? Do you excel at developing algorithms that optimize performance and enable seamless automation? If you’re ready to create control systems that power cutting-edge technology, our client has the perfect role for you. We’re looking for a Control Systems Engineer (aka The Precision Controller) to design, test, and implement control strategies that drive precision and efficiency.
As a Control Systems Engineer at our client, you’ll collaborate with engineering teams to develop control algorithms, implement control hardware, and test systems to ensure optimal performance. Your expertise in control theory and automation will be essential in creating systems that respond accurately to dynamic conditions and achieve high performance.
Key Responsibilities:
- Design and Implement Control Algorithms:
- Develop and program control algorithms for mechanical, electrical, or robotic systems to achieve precise, stable operation. You’ll work with tools like MATLAB and Simulink to model and simulate control strategies.
- Perform dynamic analysis to understand system behavior and response. You’ll calculate stability margins, frequency responses, and sensitivity to ensure robust performance under varying conditions.
- Design and tune PID, adaptive, or model-based controllers as required by system specifications. You’ll optimize controller parameters for responsiveness, accuracy, and minimal oscillation.
- Work with various sensors and actuators to gather real-time data and execute control actions. You’ll select and configure hardware, ensuring that components integrate seamlessly with control systems.
- Conduct testing and validation to confirm that control systems meet design requirements and perform under real-world conditions. You’ll troubleshoot and fine-tune systems to achieve consistent results.
- Create detailed documentation of control algorithms, design decisions, and testing results. You’ll ensure that each system has clear technical records for future reference and troubleshooting.
- Keep current with the latest advancements in control theory, automation, and hardware. You’ll evaluate new methods, tools, and technologies to maintain cutting-edge control capabilities.
Requirements
Required Skills:
- Control Theory and System Dynamics: Strong knowledge of control principles, including feedback loops, PID control, adaptive control, and stability analysis.
- Programming and Simulation Tools: Proficiency in MATLAB, Simulink, or LabVIEW for control system modeling, simulation, and algorithm development.
- Experience with Sensors and Actuators: Knowledge of sensor types (e.g., encoders, accelerometers) and actuator systems (e.g., motors, solenoids), as well as their integration with control systems.
- Analytical and Troubleshooting Skills: Ability to diagnose issues in control performance, analyze system behavior, and implement improvements.
- Hardware and Circuitry Understanding: Familiarity with control hardware, including PLCs, microcontrollers, and other embedded systems.
Educational Requirements:
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Control Systems, or a related field. Equivalent experience in control engineering may be considered.
- Relevant certifications in control systems, automation, or instrumentation are advantageous.
Experience Requirements:
- 3+ years of experience in control systems engineering, with a focus on automation, robotics, or mechanical systems.
- Experience with control hardware and embedded systems (e.g., PLCs, Arduino, Raspberry Pi) is beneficial.
- Familiarity with industrial protocols and standards, such as Modbus, CAN, or Ethernet/IP, is a plus.
Benefits
- Health and Wellness: Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance plans with low co-pays and premiums.
- Paid Time Off: Competitive vacation, sick leave, and 20 paid holidays per year.
- Work-Life Balance: Flexible work schedules and telecommuting options.
- Professional Development: Opportunities for training, certification reimbursement, and career advancement programs.
- Wellness Programs: Access to wellness programs, including gym memberships, health screenings, and mental health resources.
- Life and Insurance: Life insurance and short-term/long-term coverage.
- Employee Assistance Program (EAP): Confidential counseling and support services for personal and professional challenges.
- Tuition Reimbursement: Financial assistance for continuing education and professional development.
- Community Engagement: Opportunities to participate in community service and volunteer activities.
- Recognition Programs: Employee recognition programs to celebrate achievements and milestones.
