Control System Engineer - Remote

Role Title: Control Systems Engineer Role Type: Contractor Location: Remote Required Skills PID Control | Controller Design | Plant Modeling | System Identification | Real-System Deployment | LQR | MPC | Kalman Filtering | Python | Control Systems | Model Validation Job Summary We are seeking experienced Control Systems Engineers to support a project focused on real-world control systems and AI training. The role involves designing, modeling, implementing, and validating controllers for physical systems. Key Responsibilities Design and tune PID and advanced controllers such as LQR, MPC, and Kalman filters. Develop and validate plant models using first-principles and empirical data. Implement and test control algorithms using Python and relevant control libraries. Deploy and validate controllers on real-world hardware. Analyze system performance and optimize control strategies. Document technical decisions and collaborate with interdisciplinary teams. Qualifications Bachelor's degree or higher in Control, Electrical, Mechanical, Mechatronics, or Aerospace Engineering. 5+ years of hands-on controller design experience. Proven experience deploying controllers on real physical systems. Strong knowledge of plant modeling, system identification, and control theory. Proficiency in Python and control-system development. Experience with PID and at least one modern control method such as LQR, MPC, or Kalman filtering. Strong technical communication skills. Experience with CasADi, do-mpc, Modelica, ROS, embedded C/C++, or nonlinear/robust control is a plus. Originally posted on Himalayas
