Carraro ( is an International Group Leader in transmission systems for off-road vehicles and specialized tractors. The Group's activities are divided into two Business Areas: - Transmission systems (axles and transmissions) and components mainly for agricultural and earthmoving machinery, as well as a wide range of gears intended for highly differentiated sectors: from automotive to material handling, from agricultural applications to earthmoving. - Specialized tractors (vineyard and orchard, between 60 and 100 horsepower) aimed at third parties and engineering services aimed at designing innovative ranges of tractors. Carraro Group counts 4.000 employees world-wide - of which 1.800 in Italy - and has production sites in Italy (4), India, China and Argentina. The HQ is based in Padua. We are looking for a CONTROL SYSTEM ENGINEER - INTERNSHIP to support our R&D team. Would you like to have the opportunity to collaborate with us on one of these thesis proposals? 1 Virtual Driver for Off-Highway Machines Goal: -Develop event-based operator able to adapt to basic variations in workplace layout, machine capability and transmission technologies. Technologies & tools you will use: -Dynamic systems modelling & automatic controls; -MATLAB/Simulink, dSpace tools.
