Stonehouse, Gloucestershire Job Summary:
We are seeking a highly skilled Modeling and Simulation Engineer with strong physics-based system modelling expertise in Matlab/SimuLink/SimScape to support Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) development. This role sits within a multidisciplinary embedded software team and is responsible for developing real-time models, virtual prototypes, and simulation techniques used to design, integrate, validate, and deploy complex control systems to simulate virtual environments to our products.
The successful candidate will contribute to modelling power electronics, motor drives, and sensor networks, while supporting product development through simulation-driven design, validation, and hardware deployment. The role also involves advancing modelling methodologies, supporting commercialization efforts, and collaborating across engineering teams.
Typical Responsibilities and Duties:
HIL Development & Real-Time Modeling Develop, implement, and validate Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) simulations for engineering applications.
Design and model control systems using Simulink and Simscape with emphasis on real-time behaviour.
Create and optimize models for power electronics including switches, MOSFETs, and inverters, etc.
Model motor systems such as PMSM and BLDC, along with sensors including accelerometers, IMUs, and magnetometers, etc.
Compile and deploy models for execution on NI hardware targets ensuring robust integration and performance. Our existing toolchain enables easy compilation with single click functionality.
Collaborate with cross-functional teams to support seamless hardware-software interaction.
Engage with our partners in MathWorks/National Instruments to improve our modelling capabilities Engage with the central team to produce highly reusable models to build our library of models within the business.
Modeling, Simulation & Virtual Prototyping Develop and maintain physics-based models of systems, subsystems, and components.
