As a Digital Control Systems Designer, you will design, develop, and optimize cutting-edge control systems for next-generation underground mining vehicles. Working within the TAC division, you will collaborate closely with multidisciplinary engineering teams to deliver smart operator assists, advanced collision avoidance (CAS Level Nine), and ISO-13849 compliant architectures. This is an exciting opportunity to apply your technical skills and creativity to solve complex challenges in a fast-paced, innovative environment.
The Control Systems Team is driving the design and buildout of a digital controls platform across more than 30 vehicle product lines. You will play a key role in developing new features and advancing the next-generation operating system for mobile equipment.
Responsibilities and Duties
Technical Responsibilities:
Program mobile equipment using low variability PLC languages such as CODESYS.
Apply systems engineering best practices to optimize control system performance.
Implement CAN protocols (CAN Open, J1939) for effective communication within vehicle systems.
Design vehicle sensor instrumentation and architecture, ensuring compliance with ISO-13849.
Evaluate and integrate devices from suppliers such as IFM, ABB, and various ECUs (I/O modules, controllers, displays).
Tools and Software:
?Use AutoCAD, SolidWorks, or similar tools to create and modify technical drawings, schematics, and control system network layouts.
Qualifications
Advanced English (verbal and written) required; proficiency in other languages is an asset.
Minimum 5 years of engineering experience in mechatronics, electrical engineering, software development, control systems, or related fields.
Demonstrated experience with the responsibilities and duties described above.
Bachelor's degree or higher in engineering, computer science, or a related field (asset).
Professional Engineer (P Eng) license or similar certification (asset).
Experience with legacy systems such as Danfoss is considered an asset.
First Year Goals
Learn the current and future state of core underground mining product line control systems.
Advance the design and implementation of a new CAN bus control product with new top-level architecture for two vehicle application types (e.g., Rockbreaker).
Implement features like CAS Level Nine and remote/autonomous control in electrical schematics and PLC software for battery electric and diesel vehicle classes.
Execute electrical designs and gain hands-on experience through rapid prototyping and system/subsystem validation — including building hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) test benches and fully integrated electro-hydraulic vehicle control systems on first-of-their-class builds.
