About The Position

InnoTECH Staffing is seeking a Junior Control Systems Engineer in Manchester, NH. This is onsite 5 days a week. Must be a US Citizen or Greencard holder. In this role, you will contribute to the design and development of cutting-edge automation and robotics systems across two key domains: embedded medical devices and PLC-driven manufacturing automation. You will work alongside a multidisciplinary team of engineers to bring innovative prototypes from concept to reality.

Requirements

B.S. in Mechanical, Electrical, Mechatronics, or Biomedical Engineering
Foundational knowledge of linear and optimal controls theory
Experience applying control algorithms in robotics or automation applications
Proficiency in Python and C/C++
Familiarity with embedded systems concepts (real-time OS, hardware peripherals, firmware development)
Experience with automation sensors, drives, and actuators
Strong problem-solving, communication, and collaboration skills

Nice To Haves

PLC programming experience (Allen-Bradley, Siemens, or equivalent)
Exposure to medical device development processes or regulated industries (FDA, ISO 13485, IEC 62304)
Experience with real-time operating systems
Familiarity with communication protocols used in embedded and industrial systems (CAN, SPI, I2C, EtherCAT, Modbus, PROFINET)
Knowledge of design verification and validation (V&V) methodologies
Familiarity with version control systems (Git) and engineering documentation practices

Responsibilities

Embedded Medical Device Development Design and develop control systems for prototype medical devices running on embedded compute platforms
Implement real-time control algorithms on embedded targets (e.g., ARM Cortex, FPGA, or DSP-based systems)
Write and validate embedded firmware in C/C++ for safety-critical medical applications
Collaborate with electrical and mechanical engineers to integrate sensors, actuators, and embedded hardware into functional prototypes
Support design verification and validation (V&V) activities in compliance with medical device development standards.
Create and maintain system requirements, software design documentation, and failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA)
Manufacturing Automation Develop, program, and commission PLC-based automation systems for internal manufacturing equipment
Integrate industrial sensors, drives, servo systems, and actuators into automation solutions
Troubleshoot and optimize existing automation systems to improve reliability and throughput
Collaborate with manufacturing engineers to translate process requirements into automated control solutions
Document control system architectures, ladder logic, and functional specifications
General Apply linear, non-linear, and optimal control techniques across both embedded and industrial platforms
Develop and maintain control systems for automation and robotic products
Support testing, debugging, and continuous improvement of prototype and production systems
