About this role
ABOUT THE ROLE
As a Motor Designer on our team, you will own the electromagnetic design of custom motors and, together with mechanical, controls, and manufacturing partners, rethink what a motor can look like when every cubic millimeter matters. You will move fluidly between simulation, prototype, and bench, and your designs will end up inside robots that interact with the physical world.
RESPONSIBILITIES
- Design novel electric motor architectures (BLDC, PMSM, unconventional topologies: axial flux, slotless, coreless and etc. ) optimized for extreme torque density and compact packaging.
- Perform electromagnetic simulation and analysis (2D/3D FEA) to evaluate torque, efficiency, thermal behavior, cogging, back-EMF, and loss breakdown across operating points.…
