About Flanders Make
Towards a digitally transformed, sustainable and competitive industry
Flanders Make is a fast-growing research centre that performs research to support companies from various sectors in their sustainable innovation processes. From our establishments in Lommel, Leuven, Kortrijk and Sint-Truiden and labs within the 5 Flemish universities, we stimulate open innovation through excellent research.
Because of our unique position as a bridge between industry and research, our teams combine application and system proficiency with technological and scientific knowledge. Academic partners and more than 150 companies are part of the innovative circular ecosystem of Flanders Make.
Our strategy based on industrial needs and long-term trends ensures a close link with the industry and its challenges. With our programmed research, we create impact in companies.
Sustainability, climate and workability have a high priority in our research. We want to help companies in developing sustainable, green, smart and connected products and production systems, with a special focus on people and their interaction with machines.
Develop advanced model predictive, learning and robust adaptive control algorithms
· Set up research projects in advanced control technologies and;
· tackle challenges in multi-context adaptive control, robust control, learning control, control of systems of systems, interconnected systems,… ;
· for a wide range of industrial applications (e.g. collaborative robot, autonomous vehicle, forklift, weaving machine, agricultural robot, 3D printer, suspension in a car, hybrid drivetrain…).
As an expert in dynamic systems & control, you:
- Question the industry challenges;
- Set up a dynamic model of the plant system and propose a control strategy (system approach);
Creative flexible work environment
- Flanders Make offers you the opportunity to develop yourself in a network of top industry players, universities and research institutes;
- An energetic, flexible and challenging working environment;
- A warm and open-minded atmosphere;
- Top colleagues that are expert in their domains opening doors for fruitful collaborations and learning;
- An attractive salary with fringe benefits.
Depending on your place of residence or preference, you can work on one of our sites (flexible workplace policy).
- Develop and implement the new controller (Matlab, Simulink, C++);
- Validate the results in cooperation with validation engineers;
- Work in a multidisciplinary team (sensing, actuation, validation…).
Experienced engineers will also coach young researchers and lead projects.
