About us
Dyson is a global technology enterprise. We solve the problems others choose to ignore, with surprising new inventions that defy convention and simply work better. We’re driven by progress and thrive on the challenge of relentless improvement. We’re growing fast and our ambition is huge – more categories, more locations and more people.
Our scale and rapid growth make Dyson rich in new opportunities. We value new ideas and diverse perspectives, so our people are trusted with real work and responsibility from the outset. You’ll develop fast and have the chance to move into different business areas and regions. And you’ll be part of a global network of like-minded people – a community that supports and learns from each other.
SWHWPS is a global RDD function that designs and develops Dyson’s internal technologies that enable most of our products. The team has experts in wide range of areas such as electromagnetic, mechanical, electrical, control algorithm, software, and project management.
Motor Drives and Advanced Control (MDAC) within SWHWPS is responsible for the motor control, electromagnetic design, system control, EOL production solution, software, and verifications. Our team works from early development through to the production of our designs.
About the role
Dyson offers a unique opportunity for talented individuals to join its Research, Design and Development (RDD) function in Singapore as part of MDAC team as Senior Motor Control Engineer. He/she will be applying his/her skills and experience in electrical machines, control theory, algorithms, modelling and simulation to deliver motor control solutions (drive schemes and product features algorithms) to our next generation Dyson technologies and products. You will be working as part of larger project team and some of your tasks could include:
- Deliver from design phase until industrialising phase.
- Translate requirements into clear deliverables at each stage of the project milestones.
- Design, develop, document and implementation of algorithms for motor control and product features.
- Simulate and test the work products in motor control and electromagnetic designs.
- Support design, commissioning and troubleshooting of complex production testers.
- Work with cross teams and external for engineering design work.
Working alongside engineers, scientists, and technical experts across a broad range of disciplines, you’ll be comfortable learning from others but also sharing your own knowledge, ideas and opinions. In fact, we encourage this. You will have regular performance conversations as well as opportunities for development to enable you to build your reputation within the team.
About you
- Degree in engineering or numerate discipline or equivalent industry experience.
- At least 3 years of experience in developing motor control algorithm and electromagnetic part of single phase and/or three phase motor;
- Has knowledge of wide range of aspects in electrical machine, motor control, power electronics, control theory, fluid dynamics and analog-digital sensing technologies.
- Has motor control simulation skill with MATLAB SIMULINK, SIMSCAPE, SPICE tools, and/or code generation tools such as embedded coder.
- Has knowledge in Finite Element Analysis (FEA) of electrical machine.
- Has statistical analysis skills on data from both experiment and production test log.

Dyson Insights
What We Do
At Dyson we are focused on solving the problems that others have ignored; solving them first using our technology and ingenuity. In order to achieve this we need to pioneer technologies that are different and authentic. This is the core of what we do and who we are. We must strive to create the future, every single day by developing new things, different things, things that go against the grain with a diverse and global team of ingenious minds. Dyson employs over 14,000 people and is present in more than 80 countries. And while we are growing fast we want Dyson to remain a start-up in spirit with the freedom of experimentation and learning, constantly reinventing our products as well as reinventing how we work, how we sell and how we support our owners. At the same time we are working through the James Dyson Foundation, James Dyson Award and Dyson Institute to inspire future engineers and pioneering a new approach to engineering education. Underlining everything we do in this diverse environment is the need to always show respect, supporting each other as one team to overcome whatever challenges we encounter. We drive empowerment, development and equality in an inclusive environment for our people around the world. The future doesn’t just happen, we look to make it happen, to achieve leaps through pioneering new ideas
