Servo Drive & Control Electronics Architect based at Bangalore
Job Description:
BRIEF DESCRIPTION
Lead the development of high-reliability servo drive and control electronics for DC servo
motor-based actuation systems in aerospace environments. Own end-to-end hardware
design, analysis, implementation, and qualification of flight-critical control electronics.
Collaborate across systems to ensure precise, robust, and certifiable closed-loop
actuation performance.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
• Design and implement servo drive electronics for DC servo motor-based actuation
systems
• Develop robust control logic using embedded processors or FPGAs for real-time
position, speed, and current control
• Architect and design analog and digital circuits: signal conditioning, gate drive,
current sensing, protection, and power supply sections
• Perform detailed hardware analysis: derating, SI/PI, thermal, lightning, and
stability/sensitivity (per aerospace standards like DO-254/DO-160)
• Integrate and validate sensor feedback loops (Hall, resolver / encoder, LVDT) for
closed-loop control
• Prepare detailed schematics, BOM, and test plans; coordinate with PCB and
manufacturing teams for board realization
• Drive EMI/EMC compliance, environmental testing, and documentation for
aerospace qualification
• Collaborate with systems, avionics, and actuation teams to define and verify
interface requirements
• Own board bring-up, functional testing, HIL validation, and support system
integration Minimum Requirements
• Strong background in servo drive design and control electronics for DC servo
motors
• Proficient in analog, digital, and mixed-signal design, embedded control, and gate
drive circuits
• Experience in power electronics, MOSFET/IGBT/IGP selection, and motor
speed/current control
• Tools: LTspice, MATLAB/Simulink, Altium/KiCAD, Zuken, Signal Integrity tools,
Ansys/Cadence (for analysis)
• Knowledge of DO-254, DO-160, and aerospace hardware V&V practices
• Exposure to CAN, RS-422, SPI, UART, RS485, Ethernet /TSN and deterministic
communication for actuation
• Strong grasp of EMI/EMC, power supply design (SMPS, flyback), and certification
testing
• Well versed in embedded hardware development for aerospace or safety-critical
systems
• Hands-on with hardware testing tools: oscilloscope, logic analyzer, current probes,
etc.
