Sobre este puesto de Sr. Instrument and Embedded Specialist en FLSmidth
FLSmidth is recruiting a Senior Instrument and Embedded Specialist to develop advanced sensor platforms aimed at achieving zero-emissions mining by 2030. The role emphasizes innovation, digitalization, and sustainability in the mining industry.
Your responsibilities
Mechanical & Packaging Design: Utilize SolidWorks to design robust enclosures for severe industrial environments. Select appropriate materials (plastics, epoxies) and adhesives based on physical properties and environmental hazards.
Hardware & Firmware Development: Execute mixed-signal circuit design, PCB layout, and embedded firmware development (ESP32, RTOS, C/C++).
Rapid Prototyping & Iteration: Take ownership of the initial design phase utilizing in-house rapid prototyping (MJF/FDM 3D printing) to accelerate the validation cycle and align stakeholder vision before scaling to external vendors.
Cross-Functional Alignment: Proactively collaborate with manufacturing engineers, product owners, and end-users to distill complex field observations into clear, actionable technical requirements.
Validation & Field Testing: Write comprehensive test plans from scratch, design and implement physical test jigs, and occasionally travel to active mine sites to conduct on-site validation of sensor reliability.
Technical Documentation: Maintain high standards of design documentation to ensure system continuity, traceability, and seamless handoffs.
Strategic Execution: Demonstrate strong engineering judgment in balancing rigorous technical standards with practical, time-to-market business requirements to consistently meet deployment schedules.
Design, prototype, and deploy ruggedized sensor systems for heavy industrial environments. Operating at the intersection of electrical and mechanical engineering, you will take end-to-end ownership of product development.
What you bring
Physics & First Principles: Deep understanding of applied physics, including force, magnitude, and material properties.
RF & Mixed Signal: Working knowledge of ray tracing for antennas and mixed-signal circuit design.
Manufacturing: Practical experience with 3D printing fundamentals and rapid prototyping.
Testing: Demonstrated ability to conceptualize, write, and execute effective physical and electrical test plans.
Demonstrated history of driving technical strategy autonomously as a sole contributor.
Advanced capability in designing complex physical test jigs for severe environmental hazards.
Bonus Tooling: Experience with Altium and Enovia.
Bonus Knowledge: Familiarity with embedded security protocols and vulnerability mitigation.
