Job Type
Full-time
Description
Focus: lead reverse engineering projects of DC and AC motors. The candidate must have such experience and be capable of technically drive the process of reverse engineering.
Key Responsibilities:
- Design and develop AC and DC electric motors (e.g., induction, PM, BLDC, synchronous, etc.)
- Perform electromagnetic, thermal, and mechanical analysis using simulation tools (FEA/CFD)
- Lead and perform reverse engineering efforts including:
- Full motor teardown and documentation
- Dimensional analysis and material identification
- Winding analysis and replication
- Magnetic circuit evaluation
- Create detailed CAD models, drawings, and manufacturing documentation
- Develop motor performance specifications and validation test plans
- Conduct performance testing (efficiency, torque, speed, thermal, vibration, noise)
- Analyze and optimize motor efficiency
- Work closely with manufacturing to ensure design for manufacturability
- Support prototyping, troubleshooting, and root cause analysis
- Evaluate competitor products and recommend design improvements
- Ensure compliance with applicable industry standards
- Lead programs through production launch, including supplier selection and qualification
- Ownership of developing validation methodologies to correlate simulation results with physical test data.
Requirements
Required Qualifications:
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Electromechanical Engineering, or related field
