** A Day in Your Life at MKS:
** The Sr. Embedded Control Engineer will report to the Electrical Engineering Manager.
*
* About the role:

**
* ** Application:
** Design firmware for Power electronics (ranging from 3-30kW) used for plasma and reactive gas generation, crucial for semiconductor cleaning and etching processes.
* ** Cool Technology:
** Work on significant and unique issues where analysis of situations or data requiring an evaluation of intangibles.
* ** Collaborative

Innovation:
** Partner with scientists to explore control mechanisms and gas interactions, gaining insights into exciting technologies.
* ** Interdisciplinary Work:
** Collaborate with plasma physicists, material scientists and chemists, expanding your knowledge and contributing to groundbreaking developments.
** You Will Make an Impact By:
*** Lead the development of DSP based digital control for power electronics projects that involve a multi-discipline engineering team.
* Lead the development of inter-system communication between the system level elements.
* Perform engineering analysis and implement advanced control algorithms for power converters, RF and microwave systems.
* Develop, document, and execute DVT plans. Report on results and recommend appropriate engineering tradeoffs to optimize functional firmware performance and relative product cost.
* Create, control and archive the firmware development documentation.
* Collaborate with power electronics engineers to integrate firmware to hardware components.
* Participate in cross-functional project teams to execute upon new product developments involving power electronics for plasma generation applications.
** Skills You Bring:

* Advanced degree and 3+ years of direct applicable experience
* Must have a record of firmware development from the conceptual stage to the product launch with DSP using C/C++ and/or MATLAB/Simulink.
* Must have demonstrated experience in DSP programming for the design of either of the resonant inverters, boost or buck converters, or single/three phase power factor correction topologies.
* Familiar with common power electronics topologies and their associated digital control (etc. PFC, buck, boost or resonant inverters).
** Preferred:
*** Familiar with hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) model-based testing for validating board level developments to system level state machines.
* Familiar with version control systems.
* Familiar with graphical user interface (GUI) development for hardware testing.
* Must have solid analytical skills with the ability to simplify and present complicated systems.
* Familiar with semiconductor capital equipment preferred.
* Ability to use lab tools such as oscilloscopes, power meters, etc.
