What you'll do

* Develop, parameterize and validate plant models in MATLAB/Simulink and port them to OPAL-RT targets (RT-LAB / HYPERSIM) * Build I/O configurations, signal routing and fault-injection scenarios for the bench * Tune model fidelity against reference data and document model assumptions and limits * Support closed-loop integration runs with the US lead; analyze results and iterate models * Produce model documentation, test evidence and weekly status inputs

What you bring

* 4–7 years in control systems, power electronics simulation or real-time modelling * Hands-on OPAL-RT or equivalent (dSPACE, Speedgoat, Typhoon HIL) experience — mandatory * Strong MATLAB/Simulink, Stateflow; C/C++ for S-functions * Understanding of power converters, PWM control, PID/state-space control, and sensor/actuator modelling * BE/ME in Electrical, Electronics, Instrumentation or Controls
