- You assist in the technical budget management.
- You model, simulate & optimize the IBDM kinematics by applying Multi body dynamics.
- You support technical decision making.
- You have deep knowledge of Matlab/Simulink. You deploy the resulting C code onto the hardware.
- You plan and execute system/subsystem level functional and performance test campaigns.
- You write related technical procedures/reports and support overall coherence of the project technical documentation.
- You keep a helicopter view to steer the design and development process and interact with all technical disciplines (mechanical, thermal, electronic, software, control software, …).
- You support the overall technical coherence of the project.
Qualifications
- Master's degree engineering in Mechanical, Mechatronics, Electronics or equivalent with a background in control engineering.
- Experience in the development of control algorithms.
- Experience with hardware-in-the-loop testing.
- Experience with Matlab, Simulink and Simscape and dSPACE.
- Experience in validation, verification and performing test.
- Knowledge about development of (space)mechanisms is an asset.
