Electric Motor Design Engineer
About The Position
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
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Electromechanical Engineering, or related field
- 7+ years of experience in electric motor design and development, including at least one motor platform successfully developed or redesigned and launched into production
