About the role
As a (Senior) Control Engineer, you will sit at the core of our motion and vehicle control efforts, working closely with embedded software, hardware, systems engineering, and testing teams to improve control performance, robustness, and safety. Your work will have direct, real world impact on the teledriver experience, passenger comfort, and the reliability of our remote driving operations. While we scale our fleet and capabilities, you will help scale and adapt our control algorithms to different vehicle platforms while maturing our validation infrastructure alongside it.
What you'll do
- Design, implement, and verify model based control algorithms for remotely operated vehicles
- Extend and maintain validation environments including simulation, hardware in the loop (HIL), and in vehicle testing
- Drive testing and calibration campaigns with organising and supporting track tests onsite for data collection and controller tuning
- Support data collection, data management, processing, and analysis to evaluate control performance and identify improvement areas
- Improve automation across development, testing, and validation workflows to increase reliability and development velocity
- Work closely with embedded software, hardware, and systems engineers to ensure seamless integration and robust end to end control performance
What you'll need
- Strong experience using MATLAB and Simulink for model based control design and strong understanding of control fundamentals
- Familiarity with vehicle dynamics fundamentals
- Experience working with simulation environments, HIL setups, and or in vehicle validation
- A structured, analytical approach to debugging, performance evaluation, and system improvement
- Ability to work effectively across disciplines in a complex, safety critical system
- Comfortable contributing independently while integrating smoothly into a small, experienced team
