The Subject Matter Expert in Controls Development plays a critical role within the Engine Control Product Release Center (PRC). This expert works with the Controls Center of Excellence (COE) Manager, Controls Developers, Calibration, Advanced and Production Requirements teams to ensure that all requirements delivered by the Controls COE team meet the highest quality standards and support program functional objectives. This role provides technical leadership to PRC controls developers in the proper implementation of requirements, including controls assessments and prototype design. The expert leads training in all aspects of engine control development and is a key participant in issue investigations and resolution planning.
Responsibilities include, but are not limited to:
Read high-level requirements related to the intended vehicle-level behavior
Design the appropriate control algorithm that fulfills the functional objectives
Implement the control algorithm in Matlab-Simulink, C, etc.
Provide best-guess calibration dataset
Pre-verify the implementation, and check the requirements' compliance, through Model In The Loop (MIL) testing;
Pre-verification of the generated code, through Software in the Loop (SIL) testing or specific tools able to monitor the consumption of software resources (e.g. VRAM, throughput)
Generate integrated prototype code builds
Verify official and improve prototype code builds in the MIL, HIL lab or in the vehicle, using ETAS INCA and other tools;
Analysis and response to the tracked issues
Attend technical meetings, perform data analysis and resolve issues
Develop process documentation
Support the calibration and application community
Basic Requirements:
Bachelor of Science degree in Applied Physics, Mechanical, Electrical, Aerospace, Computer Engineering, Computer Science from an ABET accredited school or equivalent
Extensive experience in engine control, data analysis and Agile AutoScrum methodologies
A minimum of 7+ years of experience in a related field
Understanding of System Requirements Engineering and Controls Design
Strong interpersonal, communication, and leadership skills
Knowledge of modern and classical control principles
Knowledge of major vehicle systems
Domain expertise in one or more of the following: Engine Design, Engine Systems Control Design, Engine Calibration, On-Board Diagnostics, Functional safety
Embedded control development tools and processes
Support issue triage by ensuring the correct COE and team members are assigned, assist in the root cause analysis
Perform Controls Assessments on COE content
Manage COE (Center of Excellence) input to prototype software development
Provide technical review and approval of Propulsion Capabilities
Review and approve artifacts created by other team members within the assigned COE
Manage special projects focused on quality of control artifacts
Preferred Requirements:
Advanced degree with emphasis in Mechanical Engineering, Automotive engineering, or Computer Engineering
Demonstrated experience in decomposing intended functions into controls design documents
Extensive experience in creating MATLAB, SIMULINK, and AUTOSAR architecture
Successful candidates will demonstrate an action-oriented mindset, ability to deal with ambiguity, customer focus, and strong problem-solving skills
