Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) Electrical/Electronics Engineer
Oakland County, MI – Salary: $40.00–$55.00 per hour (Curriculum updated 1 week ago)
Responsibilities
Act as the Subject Matter Expert (SME) in power electronics for electric steering systems, advising on inverter and motor selection, integration, and optimization.
Provide strategic guidance in system architecture design for commercial vehicle steering systems.
Advise on motor control strategies (PMSM, Induction, BLDC) including torque, speed, and sensorless control methods.
Collaborate with hardware and software teams on co‑development of embedded control systems, ensuring alignment with system dynamics and performance requirements.
Guide teams on achieving compliance with functional safety standards (ISO 26262, ASIL D).
Participate in design reviews, FMEAs, and risk assessments to ensure robust and safe system design.
Provide technical direction for bench testing, HIL (Hardware‑in‑the‑Loop) validation, and vehicle‑level calibration and testing.
Offer insight into thermal management, EMI/EMC design considerations, and system reliability in power electronics.
Support development of long‑term strategies for next‑generation power electronics platforms in steering applications.
Required Qualifications
Master’s or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Power Electronics, or a related discipline.
15+ years of experience in power electronics, focusing on inverter and motor control systems.
Proven experience in automotive steering or other safety‑critical systems (e.g., braking, propulsion, ADAS).
Strong understanding of motor control theory — including Field‑Oriented Control (FOC), torque/speed control, and sensorless control techniques.
Demonstrated expertise in system architecture and embedded control system design.
In‑depth knowledge of functional safety principles and implementation (ISO 26262, ASIL D).
Familiarity with automotive communication protocols (CAN, LIN) and diagnostic systems.
Experience with simulation and modeling tools such as MATLAB/Simulink, LabVIEW, or equivalent.
Knowledge of EMI/EMC design, thermal management, and hardware validation best practices.
Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to guide diverse technical teams.
