Your role in the team
- Design and implementation of a pragmatic embedded and FPGA architecture for controlling DC/DC converters.
- Definition of the interfaces between the FPGA, embedded controller, power electronics, sensors, and test system.
- Development of FPGA-based functions, such as PWM generation, time-critical signal processing, and hardware-level control functions.
- Development and integration of the associated embedded software and control functions.
- Design and implementation of automated test workflows against real hardware in a back-to-back test setup.
- Development of automated hardware tests at the system, functional, and signal levels.
- Verification of input and output signals, switching sequences, timing behavior, and defined error responses.
- Integration of suitable measurement, control, and debugging tools into the test environment.
- Analysis of deviations between expected and actual behavior, as well as systematic troubleshooting at the hardware-software interface.
- Commissioning, functional testing, and technical validation of the prototype.
- Documentation of key architectural decisions, test cases, test results, and known limitations.
- Delivery of a functional prototype that can be tested in a reproducible manner, including the required development and test artifacts.
Our expectations of you
Education
- A successfully completed degree in computer science, electrical engineering, or a comparable field.
Qualifications
- Ability to define and implement test cases down to the signal level and verify them through measurement.
- Understanding of power electronics and DC/DC converters, ideally in the field of digital power converter control.
- Knowledge of Python or comparable scripting languages for test automation.
- Knowledge of MATLAB/Simulink or comparable development and simulation tools.
- Fluent in German and English, both written and spoken.
Experience
- Several years of hands-on experience in embedded systems development and hardware-related software development.
- In-depth knowledge of FPGAs and hands-on development experience with VHDL or Verilog.
- Experience with real-time control systems, digital control systems, and time-critical hardware functions.
- Experience integrating FPGAs, microcontrollers or processors, and external hardware.
- Experience with commissioning, debugging, and troubleshooting on real hardware.
- Experience with back-to-back test setups for power electronic systems.
- Experience with AMD/Xilinx or Intel/Altera FPGA platforms.
