Control System Engineer

Responsibilities

• Design and implement control systems (PID, adaptive, model-based) for target tracking and stabilization platforms.
• Develop real-time control algorithms for electro-optical systems to ensure high precision and smooth operation.
• Create mathematical models and simulations to predict performance and refine control strategies in dynamic environments.
• Collaborate with hardware and software teams to integrate control systems with sensors (IMU, gyroscopes, accelerometers) and actuators.
• Conduct system tuning, validation, and optimization to meet stability, accuracy, and response time targets.
• Test, troubleshoot, and document control algorithms in both laboratory and field environments.
• Support laboratory testing and qualification efforts for optical systems and sensor products.
• Provide technical oversight, mentorship, and documentation for internal and external stakeholders.

Requirements

• Master's degree in Mechatronics, Electronics, Control Systems Engineering, or a related field (PhD preferred).
• Minimum 5 years of experience in control systems engineering, specifically focusing on gimbal stabilization.
• Strong understanding of control theory, including PID, state-space, and adaptive control.
• Proficiency in system modeling and simulation using MATLAB/Simulink.
• Hands-on experience implementing real-time control algorithms in embedded systems, PLCs, or DSPs.
• Experience working with sensors such as gyroscopes and accelerometers.
• Knowledge of C/C++ for embedded system development is a plus.
