Summary

About us

Aerospace is at a turning point — costs are rising, supply chains are strained, and old ways of building can’t keep up. At our company, we’re breaking that mold. We move fast, think big, and combine start-up agility with aerospace expertise to design, build, and scale aircraft in ways the industry has never seen.

Build the Systems That Actually Move

We are seeking a Senior Embedded Motor Control Software Engineer to own the control system architecture and lead the implementation of high-performance algorithms for linear and rotary actuators. This is a high-stakes "inner-loop" role where you will own the 20 kHz current control loop, as well as velocity and position control, running on real-time microcontrollers.

 

Key Responsibilities

  • Algorithm Leadership: Lead the design and implementation of motor control software for PMSM and BLDC motors.
  • Embedded Implementation: Optimize PWM modules, ADC sampling, and interrupt timing on TI C2000 (specifically F280034SPN) or comparable MCUs.
  • Modeling & Simulation: Use model-based design (MATLAB/Simulink) to build motor, inverter, and actuator models that inform controller structure and gains.
  • Hands-on Tuning: Perform rule-based tuning for current, velocity, and position loops while analyzing lab data to refine stability margins.
  • Integration & Test: Execute MIL, SIL, and HIL test strategies and lead hardware bring-up and debugging in the lab.

 

What You’ll Bring

  • Experience: Minimum of 8 years in embedded motor control development.
  • Deep Technical Knowledge: Strong understanding of Control Theory, Power Electronics, and Electric Machines.
  • Language Proficiency: Strong proficiency in Embedded C/C++ for real-time applications.
  • Hardware Intuition: Proven ability to integrate and debug software across hardware and firmware boundaries in a lab setting.

Why Join?Work alongside elite engineering talent on a rare 9:00 AM – 4:30 PM schedule. We offer competitive compensation, including equity participation and full health/401K benefits.
