The Gasoline Engine Controls Development Engineer is responsible for developing new features and enhancing existing algorithms. This role involves working closely with a cross-functional team and utilizing various tools (vehicle, HIL, dyno, virtual environments, rapid prototyping) through the V-model software development process to ensure the quality and robustness of production algorithms.
The controls engineer will interface with systems and calibration teams to fully understand requirements, develop implementation strategies, assess compliance and robustness, ensure ease of calibration, and document impacts against regulatory requirements. Responsibilities include implementing designs efficiently and validating them against requirements in both virtual and physical environments throughout the production process. The controls engineer is also expected to provide technical guidance, training, and act as an expert in their field of specialization.
Controls algorithm development typically begins as an advanced effort but must ultimately meet program timelines and conform to high-level functional requirements.
The successful candidate will ensure projects remain on track by developing plans, tracking progress, and presenting technical reports to management and project chiefs. They will also actively participate in decision-making regarding control strategy design to achieve functional objectives.
Basic Qualifications:
Bachelor of Science in Mechanical or Electrical Engineering, or an equivalent engineering degree from an accredited university, with experience in controls / calibration of gasoline spark-ignition engines
Min 5 years of relevant experience
Excellent knowledge of internal combustion engines
Knowledge of modern and classical control principles
Experience in data acquisition, including collecting and processing data
Working knowledge of engine development, emissions development, engine technologies, and competitive products
Outstanding problem-solving and analytical skills
Strong teamwork skills and ability to work independently
Effective communication and interpersonal skills
Preferred Qualifications:
Bachelor's degree in Mechanical or Electrical Engineering from an ABET-accredited university
Experience with powertrain development (systems, controls, calibration)
Proficiency with advanced simulation tools
Proficiency in MATLAB/Simulink
Experience in an Agile/Scrum environment
Experience with Application Lifecycle Management (IBM RTC) tools
Familiarity with ASPICE processes for software development
Experience with AUTOSAR-compliant software architecture
Knowledge of proactive/reactive quality tools (DFSS, DFMEA, DVP&R, etc.)
