What am I going to do?
As R&D Engineer in the group “Engine Control”, you will be a part of the department “Automation & Control”. The department is responsible of delivering the software, which controls the largest 2-stroke engines of the world. The team holds around 40 highly motivated engineers, divided into smaller groups, you will become a part of a SCRUM team of 4-8 persons, which main focus is focus is the development of existing and new technologies for the engine control system in terms of reliability, maintenance, usability and engine performance. You will take part in developing, implementing and testing control strategies and automation solutions for the electrical, mechanical and hydraulic systems on a 2-stroke engine. Systems that controls engine speed, hydraulic pressure, actuation of fuel injection and exhaust valve, fuel supply systems and much more. 

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. The solutions are implemented in the distributed engine control system via the C++ programming language. The software is installed on the engines using our own MAN-ES hardware platform. We test our software using both PC, our own hardware in the loop test facilities,  our large test engine or at a production engine abroad.

Your primary tasks will be to utilize the potential of different engine systems in order to develop the best possible automation or control system solution, including:

• system analysis and modelling of dynamic system
• developing and designing methods to control electrical, mechanical and hydraulic systems
• implementing, 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
• specifying control system interfaces to internal and external partners

Our engines are produced on license typically in Japan, China and South Korea and installed in ships ranging from ferries to the world largest container ships and supertankers.
