Job Description

Location: Markaryd, Sweden

Be part of developing the future generation of heavy industrial trucks and join the exciting industry of non-road mobile machinery.

Industrial trucks combine a wide range of technologies, including powertrains, electric drives, energy storage, hydraulics, HMI, machine control, electronics and digitalization. You will work in a multidisciplinary and international engineering environment, contributing to the development and integration of control systems for our machines.

We are currently seeking a Machine Control Engineer to join our R&D organization in Markaryd.

In this role, you will develop application software and control functions for mobile machinery, primarily using MATLAB/Simulink and Model-Based Design or “state of art” graphical development tools. You will work with embedded control systems, CAN communication and machine-level integration, taking functions from initial design and simulation through implementation, testing and validation on the machine.

The position is particularly suited to an early-career engineer with a background in Mechatronics, Electronics, Automation or Control Engineering, with a strong interest in embedded software and machine control.

Main tasks and responsibilities:

• Develop application software for machine control systems, primarily using MATLAB/Simulink and Model-Based Design methodologies or “state of art” graphical development tools;
• Design, implement and maintain control algorithms and machine functions for mobile machinery;
• Generate, integrate and test embedded application software for electronic control units;
• Develop and maintain software using relevant programming languages;
• Develop and maintain CAN-based communication between controllers, sensors, actuators and other electronic devices;
• Perform simulation, testing, debugging and validation of control functions, from model level to complete-machine testing;
• Integrate application software with electrical/electronic, hydraulic and mechanical systems;
• Analyze system behavior and troubleshoot software, communication and control-system issues;
• Participate in software and system design reviews and contribute to technical documentation;
• Cooperate closely with electrical, electronics, mechanical, hydraulic and software engineering teams throughout the product development process.
• Support specification and selection of electronic components and control devices;
• Perform system and component testing and contribute to test documentation;
• Support troubleshooting and root-cause analysis of electrical/electronic and control-system issues;
• Contribute to technical documentation, design reviews and engineering change activities;
• Support continuous improvement of machine control architectures, development methods and tools.

Qualifications

What should you bring?

We are looking for a person with a genuine interest in machines, electronics and control systems, who enjoys understanding how different technologies interact at complete-machine level.

You should have:

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Mechatronics, Electronics, Electrical Engineering, Automation, Control Engineering, Computer Engineering or a related field;
• Good understanding of control systems and embedded systems;
• Knowledge of MATLAB/Simulink and Model-Based Design;
• Basic knowledge of C/C++ or similar programming languages;
• Basic knowledge of CAN communication and distributed control systems;
• Understanding of electronics, sensors, actuators and embedded controllers;
• Interest in developing software that directly interacts with real machines and physical systems;
• Analytical and structured approach to troubleshooting and problem solving;
• Good communication and teamwork skills;
• Good command of written and spoken English.

Knowledge or experience in one or more of the following areas is considered an advantage:

• Experience with automatic code generation from MATLAB/Simulink;
• Experience with embedded software development and debugging;
• Knowledge of CAN protocols such as J1939 or CANopen;
• Familiarity with CAN analysis and diagnostic tools;
• Knowledge of electro-hydraulic control systems;
• Experience with mobile machinery, automotive or industrial automation;
• Basic understanding of software configuration management and version control;
• Knowledge of functional safety and safety-related control systems.

Previous professional experience is not mandatory.
