Servo & Motion Control Engineer

Aeolus Robotics ( https://aeolusbot.com ) seeks skilled and motivated roboticists who are hands-on, technical, and passionate about making their robot dreams reality. We are seeking a candidate with an MSc or PhD in Robotics (or equivalent experience) or a Computer Science degree with a strong background in mechatronics (Servo and motion control). You need good knowledge and experience with programming in C/C++ and Python while also understanding that you are working with active hardware. The successful candidate will deliver high-quality code for robot execution and will be able to effectively communicate with software developers and roboticists in other teams to speed up the development of high-quality software. Role and responsibilities: • Motion control, including motor sizing and system dynamic simulation using Python, GNU Octave, etc., • Servo control and motor commissioning using time-domain and frequency-domain analysis. (FFT, Bode plot, PID, loop-shaping, etc.), • Design the numerical control kernel of a real-time ARM-based multi-axis motion controller, • Real-time numerical control kernel architecture, • On-line Jerk-limited motion profile generator, • Multi-axis trajectory planning, • Volumetric error compensation, • Electronic camming, gearing, • Robot kinematics. Job Requirements: • Firm understanding of motion control systems, closed-loop feedback operation, servo loop tuning, actuation systems, and feedback devices. • Develop high-performance motion systems for high precision and high-speed service robots. • Optimize motion control system in hardware and firmware to improve system dynamic performance. • Define motion control hardware and software function interface and requirements for system development and integration. • Motion control system issue troubleshooting and diagnosis experience with strong control engineering fundamentals in classic and modern methodologies. • Experience with high-precision equipment motion control (robotic development background preferred). • Proficient with Python and C/C++. • Both hands-on lab experience and theoretical analysis of design and troubleshooting problems. • Experience with technical writing of requirements, design specifications, and test plans. • Very good in English.
