Senior Controls Architect

We are seeking a Senior Controls Architect to lead the development and productionization of Drive-by-Wire control systems. The candidate will define control architecture and algorithms, develop models in Simulink, and enable production-quality code generation and deployment to embedded controllers. This role focuses on real-time control of steering, braking, and propulsion systems. This role supports a production program to deploy a Drive-by-Wire (DbW) solution on embedded vehicle controllers for a high-reliability vehicle application. The system is developed using a model-based design approach (MATLAB/Simulink) with auto-generated code deployed to production ECUs.

  • Define control architecture for Drive-by-Wire systems (steer-by-wire, brake-by-wire, throttle control)
  • Develop control algorithms using MATLAB/Simulink (model-based design)
  • Generate and deploy embedded C code to production ECUs
  • Implement closed-loop control strategies (PID, feedforward, etc.)
  • Define system interfaces across sensors, ECUs, and actuators
  • Ensure real-time performance and robustness
  • Support MIL / SIL / PIL / HIL validation and vehicle testing
