• Concept and design of software architecture in coordination with the electronics development team.
• Knowledge of architecture tools used in automotive development like Enterprise Architect.

2. Motor Control Algorithms

a. Strong knowledge of control-algorithm such as:

• Field-Oriented Control (FOC)
• PWM generation
• Torque/Speed Control loops
• Current / Power Control
• Sensor-less estimation techniques (Kalman Filter, Observers)

3. Embedded Software Development

Knowledge of platform development includes:

• Hardware abstraction layers
• Motor drivers, timers, ADCs, interrupts
• Communication interfaces (CAN, LIN, SPI)
• Implementation and test of software components.
• Analysis of customer requirements for software.

• Target microcontrollers (Infineon, NXP, Renesas, TI)
• Review C/C++ code for quality, MISRA compliance and performance.

4. Standards C Safety

Knowledge of automotive standards and safety:

• ISO 26262 Functional Safety
• ASPICE Level 2/3
• MISRA C Guidelines
• Cybersecurity (ISO 21434)
• Support safety analyses (HARA, QSA, DFA, FTA and FMEA).
