ABOUT EGSTON POWER ELECTRONICS

EGSTON Power Electronics is a young, fast-growing company in power electronics industry, focusing on the development and manufacturing of high-performance Power Hardware-in-the-Loop (PHIL) test and emulation platforms for power electronic systems. Based in Klosterneuburg on the northern outskirts of Vienna, we are an international team with a passion for cutting edge technology and dedication to developing innovative products, while continuously improving our expertise through active collaboration with our customers, suppliers and external research facilities.

JOB DESCRIPTION

As a (Senior) Power Electronics Control Engineer your main focus will be developing advanced control algorithms for power converters in EGSTON's power amplifier systems. You will be responsible for designing, testing, and validating control solutions for AC/DC, DC/DC and DC/AC power conversion systems, collaborating closely with hardware, firmware, and deployment teams. Besides model-based control engineering, you will perform independent measurements in our lab for system identification and model validation, and to assess the developed control system performance.

Aufgaben

YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES

Primary responsibilities include, but not limited to:

• Design and validate control algorithms for power electronics systems, ensuring high performance and efficiency across a range of energy and automotive products.
• Develop specifications for firmware implementation of the control algorithms.
• Model and simulate power converter dynamics to optimize control strategies using tools like MATLAB/Simulink, PLECS, and similar circuit simulation and modeling tools.
• Physics-based system identification and model validation, model-based control design, and simulations of the closed-loop control system.
• Perform hands-on testing, validation, and troubleshooting of control algorithms on hardware platforms.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to define system requirements and help integrate control algorithms into firmware frameworks.
• Support manufacturing by helping develop test platforms and providing technical support for product testing at both internal and external facilities.
• Assist product deployment teams by tracking system controller performance, diagnosing behavioral issues, and providing firmware specification updates to enhance product features and reliability.
