About the Role:

Lead the development of embedded firmware for power electronic inverters driving traction motors (PMSM, BLDC, Induction) in Electric Vehicles, industrial drives, and power conversion systems. As a Senior Firmware Engineer, you will own motor control algorithms, real-time firmware architecture, and hardware-software integration while mentoring junior engineers.

What We're Looking For:

Must-Have Technical Skills

- 8-12 years in embedded firmware for motor control inverters/Power Electronics.
- Expertise in Embedded C (MISRA C compliant) and real-time systems
- Hands-on experience with motor control MCUs: Infineon AURIX, TI C2000, Renesas
- Deep knowledge of FOC, SVPWM, power electronics fundamentals
- Proven experience with SIL/HIL testing, motor dyno validation

Tools & Methodologies

- Debug tools: oscilloscopes, JTAG, Lauterbach
- IDEs: Tasking, IAR, Code Composer Studio
- Version control: Git, SVN

Domain Experience

- Battery Management Systems (BMS)
- Motor Control & Traction Inverters
- On-Board Chargers (OBC)
- DC-DC Converters
- Electric Vehicle Powertrain Systems
- Automotive & Non Automotive ECU Development

Leadership Attributes:

- Passionate, creative, and technically hands-on specialist.
- Proactive, Quick learner with strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
- Ability to understand complex systems rapidly and provide technical direction.
- Proven capability to build, mentor, and scale high-performing engineering teams.




- Strong ownership mindset with a desire to drive future technology and product development.

Key Responsibilities:

1. Motor Control Algorithm Implementation

- Develop Field Oriented Control (FOC), V/f control, torque/speed loops
- Implement SVPWM/DPWM strategies and feedback loops (current, voltage, speed, temperature)
- Support all operating modes: startup, run, regen, fault handling, limp-home

2. Low-Level Firmware & MCU Development

- Design bare-metal/RTOS firmware on motor control MCUs (Infineon AURIX, TI C2000, Renesas)
- Configure ADC, PWM, Timers, DMA, CAN/SPI/UART peripherals
- Develop bootloaders, firmware updates, and optimize ISR/control loop timing

3. Hardware-Software Integration

- Interface with gate drivers, current/voltage sensors, resolvers/encoders
- Lead hardware bring-up, board validation, and debug activities
- Collaborate with power electronics and hardware teams

4. Safety, Diagnostics & Fault Management

- Implement over-current/voltage, thermal protection, short-circuit detection
- Develop fault classification, recovery strategies, and limp-home functionality
- Ensure ISO 26262 compliance (ASIL-B/C awareness)

5. Communication & Vehicle Integration

- Implement CAN communication stacks for torque commands, diagnostics (UDS), and calibration
- Integrate inverter with VCU, BMS, Gateway systems

6. Testing & Validation

- Execute SIL, HIL, dyno, bench testing and calibration (PI tuning)
- Debug using oscilloscopes, power analyzers, logic analyzers
- Support EMI/EMC and environmental qualification
