Innovation Electronics Development Engineer

About the job

Sonceboz is a Swiss technological and industrial group (1300 employees), a world leader in the mechatronic drive systems sector. Partner to a demanding international clientele in the Automotive, Trucks, Medical sectors, among others, innovation and the development of new technological solutions are strong growth drivers for Sonceboz.

To strengthen the electronics team of our Anticipation, Innovation and Business Development entity, we are looking for an Innovation and Electronics Development Engineer.

Integrated into a cross-functional team of 3 electronics engineers, you will be responsible for the development and integration of software, motor control and innovative advanced control features for various applications: automotive, commercial vehicles, industrial, medical, etc.

Main responsibilities:

• Motor control: Develop and implement advanced algorithms on microcontroller targets and real-time machines (FOC, sensorless, NVH compensation, speed/position regulation) to design high-performance and optimised motorised systems.
• Modelling and simulation: Use Simulink/Matlab and Python to model electromechanical systems, test concepts in simulation before the hardware design phase, and actively participate in the realisation phase of Rapid Control Prototyping and Hardware in the Loop models.
• Advanced software design: Master software from the low layer, peripheral, driver, to the application layer. Be capable of modifying an entire existing codebase to implement control, communication, neural network, surrogate functionalities, etc.
• Design of innovative electronic systems: Define the electronic architecture close to the microcontroller of new actuators (sensor, converter, PMIC, etc.) by supervising their system integration as well as their development and interfaces (SW-HW).

You are passionate about technological innovation and enjoy tackling complex technical challenges. Curious, adaptable and autonomous, you are keen to explore new solutions and continuously develop your skills in electronics, embedded software and advanced simulation.

You master all or part of the following technologies:

• C/C++, Python
• Git
• MATLAB/Simulink, dSPACE RTI
• ROS
• Altium Designer, LTspice
• PyTorch
• Fusion 360, CATIA
• LIN and CAN communication protocols

Knowledge in electronic system design and validation is an additional asset. You also have a solid foundation in advanced electric motor control, electromagnetism and modelling/simulation.

Graduated from an engineering school or a recognised university programme in electronics, automation, robotics or related disciplines, ideally from institutions such as INSA, ENSEM Nancy or EPFL, you have 3 to 5 years of experience in developing innovative electronic solutions.
