SEDEMAC Mechatronics Pvt Ltd

Engineer, R&D (Rnd-SysE-HW-COE-AppE-CSA)

The job profile has multiple tracks:

1. R&D track (candidate is involved in “proof of concepts” for new technology development)
2. Systems engineering track (candidate is product owners involved in designing products
that go into production, especially for new product lines)
3. Applications engineering track (the role is like systems engineering, but more relevant
for scaling existing product lines to high volumes)
4. Electronics hardware track (candidate predominantly works on circuit design and
verification + validation of built hardware)
5. Control systems architect track (candidate works on writing control-intensive software
that goes into production)
6. Center of Excellence track (candidate focuses on engineering verticals such as FEA /
CFD simulations)

All tracks will follow a common selection procedure, including a common written test. Once
selected, the candidate will be assigned (at the time of company onboarding) one of the above
tracks based on the candidate's interests and the candidate's performance in the written tests and
interviews.

About the job

The candidate is expected to participate in building technologies and products for automotive &
off-highway power-trains such that the built products and technologies are deployed in large
numbers world-wide. S/he is expected build technology differentiators and/or well-engineered
robust products and work with a cross functional team to execute the same.

Major Responsibilities

The candidate will work on creating technology differentiators and/or robust products (at both
software and electronic hardware levels) in domains such as engine controls, motor controls,
battery technology, electric machines and inertial measurement systems. Depending on the
designation the candidate is assigned when the candidate joins SEDEMAC, the candidate’s day-
to-day job will be a suitable subset of the below activities:

 Develop a first principles understanding of the physics behind systems being considered;
examples of systems being lithium cells, electric machines, IMUs, buck-boost converters,
flux sensors, parasitic inductances of PCBs etc.
 Mathematically model the system; design and conduct experiments to validate the
hypothesized mathematical model.
 Develop "methods/ strategies / circuits" to control / observe the system for desirable
behaviour / insights. Examples being strategies and/or circuits for engine lambda control,
inertial navigation etc.
  Develop proof-of-concept demonstration of methods / strategies / circuits developed, on
prototype ECUs (Electronic Control Units) through coordination with cross functional
teams (such as hardware & software).
 Develop electronics circuits, verify them in simulation domain, build the hardware, and test
the built hardware for functionality and endurance.
 Perform high-fidelity simulations in the domains of thermal engineering, structural
mechanics, electromagnetics such that design decisions are based on simulation results.
 Develop control-intensive embedded software that runs in the electronic control units
which are deployed in mass volumes by SEDEMAC.
 Write white-papers to document the methods / strategies / circuits developed.

Desired technical skills

 Strong command over engineering physics and mathematics along with enthusiasm for
potentially cross-domain ideas (mechanical, electrical etc.).
 Skills in electronic instrumentation is desirable
 Experience with software development is desirable
 Experience with new product development is desirable

Desired soft skills

 Good written and verbal communication skills.

 Ability to work with a cross-functional team.
 Professional attitude towards work.
 Sense of ownership and urgency when working in the company.
 Strong sense of ethics

Education:

 Bachelor's / Master's degree in Engineering (CGPA 6.0+)

Experience:

 NA

Job Location:

 Pune (Baner)
About SEDEMAC:

At its core, SEDEMAC is the coming together of talented engineers with the zeal for development
and large-scale deployment of innovative control technologies & products. Since our proposals
tend to be fundamental control technology for large markets, our customers are large
vehicle/motor/engine manufacturers with significant market presence. We pride ourselves on
being an engineer run organization — responsible for creation of technologies and products that
we offer. We have been able to institute a working environment that emphasizes respect for the
individual, focus on what is being said as opposed to who is saying it, creativity, and honesty.
