Job Description

Machine Control Engineer – R&D

Location: Markaryd, Sweden

Be part of developing the future generation of heavy industrial trucks and join the exciting industry of non-road mobile machinery.

Industrial trucks combine a wide range of technologies, including powertrains, electric drives, energy storage, hydraulics, HMI, machine control, electronics and digitalization. You will work in a multidisciplinary and international engineering environment, contributing to the development and integration of control systems for our machines.

We are currently seeking a Machine Control Engineer to join our R&D organization in Markaryd.

In this role, you will develop application software and control functions for mobile machinery, primarily using MATLAB/Simulink and Model-Based Design or “state of art” graphical development tools. You will work with embedded control systems, CAN communication and machine-level integration, taking functions from initial design and simulation through implementation, testing and validation on the machine.

The position is particularly suited to an early-career engineer with a background in Mechatronics, Electronics, Automation or Control Engineering, with a strong interest in embedded software and machine control.

Main tasks and responsibilities:

  • Develop application software for machine control systems, primarily using MATLAB/Simulink and Model-Based Design methodologies or “state of art” graphical development tools;
  • Design, implement and maintain control algorithms and machine functions for mobile machinery;
  • Generate, integrate and test embedded application software for electronic control units;
  • Develop and maintain software using relevant programming languages;
  • Develop and maintain CAN-based communication between controllers, sensors, actuators and other electronic devices;
  • Perform simulation, testing, debugging and validation of control functions, from model level to complete-machine testing;
  • Integrate application software with electrical/electronic, hydraulic and mechanical systems;
  • Analyze system behavior and troubleshoot software, communication and control-system issues;
  • Participate in software and system design reviews and contribute to technical documentation;
  • Cooperate closely with electrical, electronics, mechanical, hydraulic and software engineering teams throughout the product development process.

Additional tasks:

  • Support specification and selection of electronic components and control devices;
  • Perform system and component testing and contribute to test documentation;
  • Support troubleshooting and root-cause analysis of electrical/electronic and control-system issues;
  • Contribute to technical documentation, design reviews and engineering change activities;
  • Support continuous improvement of machine control architectures, development methods and tools.

Qualifications

What should you bring?

We are looking for a person with a genuine interest in machines, electronics and control systems, who enjoys understanding how different technologies interact at complete-machine level.

You should have:

  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Mechatronics, Electronics, Electrical Engineering, Automation, Control Engineering, Computer Engineering or a related field;
  • Good understanding of control systems and embedded systems;
  • Knowledge of MATLAB/Simulink and Model-Based Design;
  • Basic knowledge of C/C++ or similar programming languages;
  • Basic knowledge of CAN communication and distributed control systems;
  • Understanding of electronics, sensors, actuators and embedded controllers;
  • Interest in developing software that directly interacts with real machines and physical systems;
  • Analytical and structured approach to troubleshooting and problem solving;
  • Good communication and teamwork skills;
  • Good command of written and spoken English.

Knowledge or experience in one or more of the following areas is considered an advantage:

  • Experience with automatic code generation from MATLAB/Simulink;
  • Experience with embedded software development and debugging;
  • Knowledge of CAN protocols such as J1939 or CANopen;
  • Familiarity with CAN analysis and diagnostic tools;
  • Knowledge of electro-hydraulic control systems;
  • Experience with mobile machinery, automotive or industrial automation;
  • Basic understanding of software configuration management and version control;
  • Knowledge of functional safety and safety-related control systems.

Previous professional experience is not mandatory. Relevant experience gained through university projects, internships, thesis work or personal technical projects will also be considered.

Additional Information

Who are you?

As a person, you are curious, analytical and hands-on. You enjoy solving technical problems and are interested in understanding the complete machine, from sensors and electronics to control logic and actuators.

You are comfortable working in a multidisciplinary environment and willing to develop your knowledge across different technical areas. You are structured in your work but also open to learning new technologies and finding practical solutions to engineering challenges.
