    About the role
    You will build the real-time simulation models that drive the HIL bench — plasma source, power delivery, thermal and actuator models — in OPAL-RT and Simulink, working closely with the on-site lead in the US.

    What you'll do

    • Develop, parameterize and validate plant models in MATLAB/Simulink and port them to OPAL-RT targets (RT-LAB / HYPERSIM)
    • Build I/O configurations, signal routing and fault-injection scenarios for the bench
    • Tune model fidelity against reference data and document model assumptions and limits
    • Support closed-loop integration runs with the US lead; analyze results and iterate models
    • Produce model documentation, test evidence and weekly status inputs

    What you bring

    • 4–7 years in control systems, power electronics simulation or real-time modelling
    • Hands-on OPAL-RT or equivalent (dSPACE, Speedgoat, Typhoon HIL) experience — mandatory
    • Strong MATLAB/Simulink, Stateflow; C/C++ for S-functions
    • Understanding of power converters, PWM control, PID/state-space control, and sensor/actuator modelling
    • BE/ME in Electrical, Electronics, Instrumentation or Controls

    Nice to have: FPGA-based I/O (eFPGASIM), Python scripting, experience with laser/plasma/RF system
