Embedded Software Engineer

The Role Join the CIPS Research Team to build the embedded firmware that demonstrates real-world performance of novel power and cooling technologies for the fast-growing data center sector. You will lead a small team and work directly on early-stage research and proof-of-concept designs. Key

• Lead a team designing and implementing embedded firmware in C/C++ and HDLs on MCUs, DSPs and FPGAs. • Develop real-time control loops, PWM generation, ADC sampling, protection, fault handling, calibration, communications and sensor integration. • Own controller selection by understanding hardware and control requirements. • Create automated unit and integration tests and support HIL/SIL test benches. • Contribute to system requirements, architecture, code reviews and documentation, using coding standards and version control to produce reusable software. • Support design for safety, compliance and reliability. • Research new controller devices and architectures for lab demonstrations and product integration. • Write research reports, design guides, patents and performance reports.

• PhD or Master's in Electrical, Electronic or Control Engineering (or related). • 5+ years in control theory and signal processing. • Understanding of common power electronic architectures (AC/DC, DC/AC, DC/DC) and control methods. • Knowledge of MATLAB/Simulink, embedded C/C++ and software architecture design. • Experience defining controller platforms and managing code across mu
