Senior Electrical Engineer
Cynet SystemsPay Range: $63.00hr - $67.00hr
Job Overview:
Help develop advanced motion control and power electronics solutions. In this role, the candidate will design and support hardware for servo systems, brushless motor drives, and inverter-based power stages used in high-performance applications. This is an opportunity to work across the full product lifecycle β from concept and architecture through design, test, integration, qualification, and production β while collaborating with multidisciplinary engineering teams to deliver reliable, high-performance solutions.
Work Environment:
Office/Cubical or Production floor/lab environment (Flexible depending upon the needs of the project).
Responsibilities:
- Design hardware for brushless 3-phase motor drives, inverter circuits, and servo control systems.
- Develop analog, digital, and power electronics schematics for circuit card assemblies.
- Support hardware bring-up, debug, integration, verification, and production transition.
- Apply control theory concepts such as PID and compensation techniques to motion control designs.
- Develop interfaces for encoders, resolvers, actuators, and related feedback devices.
- Use simulation and modeling tools such as MATLAB/Simulink and LTspice to validate designs.
- Partner with systems, mechanical, firmware, manufacturing, and test engineers to ensure successful product execution.
- Support communication interfaces such as CAN bus and EtherCAT, as needed.
Qualifications:
Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or related field with 6+ years of relevant experience; or Graduate degree with 4+ years of related experience; or 10+ years of directly related experience in lieu of a degree.
Preferred Skills:
- Proven track record of designs that include motor drives, servo systems, and power electronics hardware design.
- Knowledge of stepper motors, motion control systems, or actuator test setups.
- Familiarity with C, C++, or VHDL.
- Experience with schematic capture and simulation tools such as Mentor Graphics and SPICE.
- Strong lab debugging and test experience with standard electrical lab equipment.
- Experience in military, aerospace, ruggedized, or high-reliability product environments.
- Strong verbal and written communication skills and ability to work effectively on cross-functional teams.
- Ability to obtain a U.S. DoD security clearance is a plus.
