• Develop and tune motion‑control algorithms, PID/FOC loops, and embedded software (C/C++/Python).

1. Modeling, Simulation & Prototyping

• Use MATLAB/Simulink and CAE tools to model dynamics, NVH, thermal behavior, and system performance.

• Lead rapid prototyping, testing, root‑cause analysis, and supplier coordination for custom components.

1. Gear Train & Transmission Design

• Design spur, helical, planetary, and harmonic gear systems for motor-driven mechanisms.

• Perform gear macro/micro geometry design, backlash/tolerance analysis, and strength/life calculations using AGMA/ISO standards.

• Knowledge of Ball Screw, lead screw and different Mechanism for Rotary to Linear conversion.

• Work together with Hydraulic expert to integrate electronics to Actuator systems

1.  Motion System Integration

• Select and size motors, gearboxes, encoders/resolvers, brakes, and drives using load, inertia, and duty-cycle analysis.

• Define mechanical requirements, architecture, and detailed designs for precision motion assemblies.

• Understanding of the principles governing automatic control systems, such as control system theory and system modeling

1. Testing, Validation & Reliability

• Conduct bench testing, torque‑speed characterization, NVH validation, and system debugging.

• Perform DFMEA, verification planning, design validation, and implement corrective actions.

1. Manufacturing & DFM/DFA

• Apply DFM/DFA principles and select appropriate materials and processes for gears, shafts, housings, and transmission components.

1. Cross‑Functional Collaboration & Compliance

2. Work closely with electronics, firmware, mechanical, and manufacturing teams across development stages.

3. Ensure compliance with industry safety and regulatory standards (UL, CSA, FM, ISO, IEC, NEC, FDA).

4. Communicate design decisions, risks, and results to global stakeholders.

For This Role, You Will Need:

• Bachelor’s/Master’s in Mechatronics/Mechanical/Electrical or related.

• Min 15 years in mechatronic design focused on motorized and gear‑based systems.

• Strong knowledge of BLDC/Stepper motors, drivers, power stages, feedback devices (incremental/absolute encoders, resolvers), and motion control fundamentals.

• Hands‑on experience with AGMA/ISO gear design and analysis, tolerance analysis, bearing selection and preload, shaft/housing stiffness, and NVH basics.

• Experience with power analyzers, oscilloscopes, torque/force sensors, accelerometers, spectrum analyzers, and dynamometer test benches.

• Working knowledge of relevant ISO, IEC & UL/CE standards.

• Excellent problem-solving, Critical thinking and debugging skills.

• Strong communication and collaboration skills.
