Senior Electrical Engineering Project – Motor System Upgrade for Environmental & Experimental Devices
Budget: €1,000 – €30,000 EUR
We are an engineering-driven company working on specialized environmental and experimental devices that are used in real-world testing, measurement, and controlled environments. Our work focuses on reliability, precision, and long-term operability of physical systems.
Project Overview
We are seeking an experienced Electrical Engineer to analyze, upgrade, and modernize motor systems used in our existing devices.
This is not a software-only or simulation-only task.
The results of this project will be used in real manufactured hardware, deployed in environmental and experimental setups.
The work will be done remotely, but the engineer must think and design like someone who builds real devices, not just schematics.
Project Goals
The primary goal is to improve and future-proof our motor systems, focusing on:
-Electrical efficiency
-Stability and reliability
-Precise motor control
-Suitability for environmental and experimental conditions
-Manufacturability and maintainability
Scope of Work
1. Existing System Review
-Review provided documentation, schematics, and motor specifications
-Analyze current motor behavior and limitations
-Identify electrical, control, or efficiency bottlenecks
2. Motor System Upgrade
-Depending on the application, this may include:
-DC motors
-BLDC motors
-Stepper motors
-Tasks may involve:
-Motor selection or optimization
-Torque, speed, and power analysis
-Electrical protection and fault handling
-Noise, EMI, and thermal considerations
3. Motor Control & Power Electronics
-Design or improve motor driver circuitry
-Power supply design and filtering
-Protection mechanisms (overcurrent, overvoltage, thermal)
-Interface compatibility with existing control systems (MCU, PLC, or controller)
4. Environmental & Experimental Considerations
-The system must be suitable for:
-Continuous or long-term operation
-Laboratory and experimental environments
-Exposure to environmental variables (temperature, vibration, duty cycles)
5. Manufacturing-Ready Design
-The final solution must be:
-Ready for physical manufacturing
-Based on readily available components
-Designed with assembly and servicing in mind
Deliverables
-The selected engineer will provide:
-Updated electrical schematics
-Motor and driver component selection
-Bill of Materials (BOM) with part numbers
-Design rationale explaining improvements
-Basic manufacturing and integration notes
-Documentation suitable for internal engineering use
Technical Requirements
-Mandatory
-Degree or professional experience in Electrical Engineering
-Proven experience with motor control systems
-Experience designing real, physical hardware
-Strong understanding of power electronics
-Ability to deliver clear, professional documentation
Highly Preferred
-Experience with environmental or laboratory equipment
-Experience with industrial or scientific devices
-Familiarity with long-term reliability design
-Experience collaborating remotely with engineering teams
