Founded in Singapore in 2004, Akribis Systems is a motion control company that provides high precision direct drive motors. We construct products for a range of industries including renewable energy, semiconductor, communication, biomedical, robotics or any industry that requires precise motion.
We produce direct drive motors with a high force density and patented coil design that decreases cogging. Our linear and rotary motors also are available with stages that we manufacture ourselves so you can smoothly integrate the motor into your design.
Department Overview:
The stage R&D department develops new technologies and products for the stage business unit. We work on a wide range ofproducts ranging from ultraprecision systems that achieve nanometer-level precision for semiconductor applications, to large format and highly dynamic gantry systems capable of accelerating hundreds of kilograms of mass in excess of 4 g's. The R&D team comprises members with diverse technical specialities working in an interdisciplinary setting on some of the mostchallenging technical problems in the company.
- Carry out development work in the area of Mechatronic motion-control systems (primarily in applications of ultra-precisionmotion systems using direct drive motors)
- Design, simulate and tune commercial motion controllers to achieve optimal motion profile.
- Perform testing and fine-tuning on existing multi-axis stages and/or a prototype motion systems.
- Collaborate closely with Mechanical Engineers and Application teams to adopted a holistic Mechatronics Control Designmethodology.
- Size, source, select and procure suitable electrical components, drivers, controllers and power supply based on applicationrequirements.
- Work with other local and overseas teams (such as Sales, Applications, Manufacturing) within the organisation to supportthe entire product lifecycle (i.e. from conceptualisation to commercialisation).
Qualifications
- Candidate must possess at least Bachelor's Degree / Master's Degree and/or equivalent, preferrably in Electrical/Electronics Engineering, Mechatronics Engineering, Mechanical Engineering and/or any other relevant course of study.
- We will consider If applicants with alternative background with strong interest and motivation to learn.
- Preferably with 1-5 Year(s) of working experience in relevant engineering industry.
- Applicants without experience but with good learning ability are welcome to apply.

- Basic knowledge and practical experience with sensors, controller/PLC/drivers and power supply.
- Valuable added-advantage of skills & knowledge are:
- Hands-on experience with commercial controllers, i.e. able to set up a controller, drivers, motor(s) and encoder(s); and perform tuning to achieve desired motion performance.
- Strong control system analysis skill in both time and frequency domain
- Good fundamental understanding of mechatronic motion systems
Attributes:
- High willingness to learn and commitment to developing as proficient practicing engineer
- Strong and clear communicator
- Conscientious worker with ability to perform under dynamic high-stress situations
- Basic time management skills to handle assigned tasks independently with limited supervision
- Meticulous attention to quality, detail and reliability
