R&D Engineer for Engine Control

Is control of large machinery catching your eye? Would you like to contribute to the green transition? Are you interested in working in a team, which is participating in getting the world’s largest combustion engines to perform at their best? Then please continue reading – we might have just the job for you…

What am I going to do?
As R&D Engineer in the group “Engine Subsystems & Emission Control”, you will be a part of the department “Automation & Control”. The department has the responsibility of delivering the software, which is controlling the largest 2-stroke engines of the world, and consists of around 40 highly motivated engineers. We are divided into smaller groups, and you will be a part of a SCRUM team of 4-8 persons, which is focusing primarily on new and existing technologies for reducing emissions. You will both develop, implement and test the control strategies for the mechanical systems, which supports the engines.

On the basis of a good understanding of combustion systems and mechanical systems, we are designing the control strategies for the engines in cooperation with the other development departments. When the control strategy is determined, we are implementing it in C++. The software is installed on the engines on our own MAN-ES hardware platform. We are testing on both PC, our own test setup with hardware in the loop and on our own test engine or a production engine out in the world.

Your primary tasks will be to utilize the mechanical potential of different systems via a good control strategy, including:

• developing and designing methods to control mechanical systems
• programming and testing new functionality in the control system
• improving, bug finding and maintaining existing functionality in the control system
• assisting costumers and business partners in connection with bug finding in service

Our engines are produced on license typically in Japan, China and South Korea, and you will from time to time have travel activity in connection with tests, which cannot be completed on our test engine or test setup in Copenhagen. In daily work you will regularly be in contact with our colleagues and costumers worldwide, where you will give written support and assistance.

Who am I?
We imagine that our new colleague

• holds a degree in automation, mechanical or electrical engineering, with interest in mechanics and thermodynamics
• has experience with and interest in programming – C++ or another object oriented language is an advantage, but not a requirement
• has 3-5 (or more) years of experience from a similar position

Furthermore, you would fit well into the team and our way of working if you are independent and take plenty of initiative, with the ability and joy to follow a project from the start-up phase to the end, including delivery.

How is my new team?
We are working in SCRUM teams of 4-8 developers, following the agile principles. It is a requirement that our systems and software applications are designed and implemented with great focus on quality, on-time delivery, lifespan and user friendliness.

We are a team with good unity, where the daily life is characterized with an informal atmosphere and a pleasant social work environment. You will work in close cooperation with skilled and motivated colleagues who are passionate about their job and are looking forward to learn from you – and of course also share their knowledge.
