Job description

Job Title: Sr. Specialist, Electrical Engineer- Motor Control and Servo Design

Job Code: 42271

Job Location: Salt Lake City, Utah

Job Schedule: 9/80: Employees work 9 out of every 14 days - totaling 80 hours worked - and have every other Friday off

Job Description:

L3Harris is seeking a Senior Specialist, Motor Control and Servo Design Engineer to join the design team and support growing motor drive and control circuit card development needs. This engineer will apply deep technical knowledge in brushless 3-phase motor drives, half-bridge/inverter power stages, and servo control systems to develop robust hardware solutions.

The role is responsible for the full product lifecycle, from requirements definition and architecture through design, integration, verification, qualification, and production support. The engineer will collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure designs meet system-level power, thermal, EMI/EMC, reliability, and safety requirements.

Essential Functions:

  • Design brushless 3-phase inverter and motor drive circuits for servo and motion control applications.
  • Develop analog, digital, and power schematics in support of printed circuit card design.
  • Support the full hardware development lifecycle, including requirements analysis, design, bring-up, verification, integration, and transition to production.
  • Perform first-article bring-up and debug of newly developed hardware in the laboratory.
  • Apply control systems theory, including PID and lead-lag compensation, to motor and servo control designs
  • Develop interface circuitry for encoders, resolvers, actuators, and related feedback/control devices.
  • Support or contribute to real-time control algorithm development.
  • Use modeling and simulation tools such as MATLAB/Simulink and LTspice to analyze and validate designs.
  • Conduct and participate in peer design reviews, design verification testing, and production support activities.
  • Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams, including analog, digital, RF, mechanical, systems, and manufacturing engineers.
  • Track technical milestones, cost, and schedule priorities to support program execution.
  • Develop, review, and validate specifications and test approaches for motor and servo control electronics.      
  • Support communication interfaces such as CAN bus and EtherCAT, as applicable to system design.

Required Qualifications:

  • Bachelor's Degree and minimum 6 years of prior relevant (Electrical Engineering or related field) experience. Graduate Degree and a minimum of 4 years of prior related experience. In lieu of a degree, minimum of 10 years of prior related experience

Preferred Additional Skills:

  • Experience with stepper motor drive design and debug.
  • Experience with motion tables or motion control test systems.
  • Knowledge of C, C++, or VHDL
  • Experience with CAD tools, preferably Mentor Graphics, for schematic capture and layout.
  • Proficiency with electrical simulation tools such as SPICE or piecewise-linear modeling tools.
  • Experience with common laboratory equipment, including electronic loads, bench power supplies, function generators, multimeters, and oscilloscopes.
  • Experience designing products for military, high-reliability, or ruggedized environments.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to coordinate effectively across engineering and manufacturing teams.
  • Ability to work independently from oral and written instructions while contributing positively in a team environment.
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Visio.
  • Ability to obtain a U.S. DoD security clearance.
  • Willingness to work extended hours or weekends when required to meet program needs.
