Join us in developing and advancing clean, efficient, and high-performance technologies, and contribute to the growth of transportation electrification.\nOur Embedded Software team requires a compact Hardware-in-the-Loop (mini-HIL) test bench to test inverter control software without a motor, power stage, or high-voltage installation. The mini-HIL is a custom electronic board (PCBA) that connects to the inverter control board. It emulates the power stage and motor by generating realistic sensor signals.\nJob Duties and Responsibilities\nHelp revolutionize the transportation industry while:\nAnalyzing existing mini-HIL schematics, PCB layouts, and documentation, then bringing up and debugging the current prototype.\nDesigning signal emulation circuits, including DAC stages and operational amplifiers for current and voltage sensor emulation, thermistor emulation, resolver emulation synchronized with the excitation signal, as well as fault injection and signal override capabilities.\nDesigning acquisition circuits for PWM outputs, gate-drive commands, and digital outputs from the product board, including level shifting and input protection.\nPerforming component placement and PCBA routing.\nBringing up and validating the new board using laboratory equipment such as oscilloscopes, power supplies, signal generators, and multimeters.\nDeveloping the board’s embedded firmware.\nDeveloping scripts and tools (e.g., in Python) to configure, control, and automate testing on the mini-HIL bench.\nDocumenting your work, including design notes, schematics, user guides, and test reports.\nPerforming any other related duties as required..\nEducation and Qualifications\nCurrently pursuing a degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field;\nSkills\nExperience with schematic capture and PCB design tools (Altium Designer, KiCad, or equivalent), gained through academic projects, previous internships, or personal projects.\nKnowledge of analog and mixed-signal circuit design, including operational amplifiers, filtering, ADC/DAC, signal conditioning, and signal protection.\nProgramming experience in C, C++, and Python.\nExperience with software development tools (Git, Azure DevOps, JIRA, etc.).\nExperience with 32-bit microcontrollers (Infineon, TI, ARM, etc.) and JTAG debugging tools.\nA proactive mindset and strong ability to work independently.\nThe ability to collaborate effectively within multidisciplinary teams.\nDemonstrated ability to thoroughly document work and technical deliverables.\nProficiency in both French and English, spoken and written.","description_format":"text","description_chars":3206,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[{"language":"French","level":"All
