Semicon Principal Motion Control & Algorithm Engineer / Manager

about the job

• Develop high-precision motion trajectory designs, multi-axis path planning, and advanced servo control algorithms (feedforward/feedback, PID) using MATLAB/Simulink and C/C++.
• Conduct comprehensive motion data modeling, system identification, and vibration/oscillation analysis to implement active structural damping and noise cancellation.
• Deploy real-time control algorithms on industrial motion platforms (e.g., ACS, Omron Delta Tau, Beckhoff) and synchronize them with high-speed vision and sensor systems.
• Lead cross-functional system bring-up, modal analysis, and root-cause debugging to transition prototypes into reliable commercial equipment.
• Partner with tier-1 motion component vendors to evaluate technical roadmaps and optimize hardware performance.

skills & experience required

• Bachelor’s, Master’s, or Ph.D. in Mechatronics, Control Systems, Electrical Engineering, or a related discipline
• 8+ years developing motion control architectures for high-precision industrial automation, advanced robotics, or semiconductor manufacturing.
• Deep foundational knowledge of motion theory, state-space modeling, kinematics, and digital signal processing (DSP).
• Strong hands-on capability with MATLAB/Simulink, Python, or C/C++ for algorithm design and motion data modeling.
• Proven experience deploying controls on real-time operating systems and industrial controllers (ACS, Beckhoff TwinCAT, Omron Delta Tau).
• Willingness to travel regionally (~25%) for critical product introductions and supplier assessments.
