Your daily workout

• Motor Control Development: You develop, adapt, and optimize control algorithms for electric drive systems including three-phase AC inverters and motors, with a strong focus on control performance, robustness, and cost efficiency. Collaborating with your Firmware team counterpart, you will hold joint accountability for the end-to-end management of this discipline

• System Modeling & Simulation: You build and maintain control-oriented models of electric drive systems and related components to analyze, validate, and optimize system performance, using tools such as MATLAB/Simulink or PLECS

• Validation & Testing: You support the commissioning, validation, and optimization of drive systems in the lab, using HIL setups and motor test benches to compare simulation results with measurements and improve control concepts and overall system design with our end customer in mind

• Control-Oriented Hardware Development: You contribute to the electrical design and development of drive-related hardware, bringing in your strong hardware background while ensuring controllability, measurability, and system feasibility

• Collaboration & Documentation: You work closely with Electrical, Firmware and Mechanical Engineering teams, document your technical work transparently, and manage your tasks and project timelines in a structured way.

Your fitness level

• Electrical Engineering Studies: You have a master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Control Engineering, Mechatronics, or an equivalent educational background

• Professional Experience: You have at least 5 years of professional industry experience in electrical engineering, electric drive systems, power electronics, or control-oriented system development. You understand the balance between technical excellence and product goals

• Technical Skills: You have solid knowledge of electric drive systems, especially AC inverter topologies, synchronous motors, control theory, and dynamic system behavior

• Modeling & Validation: You have experience in system modeling and simulation of electrical drive systems, and you know how to use engineering tools such as MATLAB/Simulink to design, analyze, and optimize real hardware systems, enabling the Firmware team to implement the optimal control algorithm

• Further skills: You can prove knowledge of the following technologies:

  • Motor control algorithms for three-phase AC machines

  • Control theory and closed-loop system design

  • HIL testing, real-time systems and validation methods

  • Motor test stands, laboratory measurements, and correlation between simulation and hardware results

Your training goal for your first 6 months

• System Ownership: You take ownership of one of our electric drive-related system components or functions and contribute it through a first full development cycle, from concept and modeling to validation

• Control & Modeling Impact: You build the foundation for drive system control development as a new discipline at EGYM by shaping our tool ecosystem, control concepts and associated validation methods leading into a HIL setup and AC motor test stand

• Product Understanding: You build a strong understanding of EGYM’s hardware products, drive-related system requirements, and the interaction between electronics, control, and mechanics

• Knowledge Sharing: You share your expertise in electric drive systems, control theory, modeling, and validation, and help establish best practices within the team

• Culture & Engagement: You enjoy EGYM’s lively and open working environment and actively participate in our feedback culture

The equipment we provide

• Modern & International: Be part of an international company culture where talent and passion are valued, heard and included in the decision-making process
