  • Hands-on experience with engine and engine component development
  • Experience in powertrain calibration software - ATI/CAN or similar
  • Hands-on experience with ATI Vision as applied to engine control systems
  • Extensive experience in new IC engine control system design and development
  • Proficiency in developing internal combustion engines, including understanding of the effects of spark control, adjusting AFR for best performance and emissions, durability, control system components, intake/exhaust system pressure, and emissions testing
  • Develops, tests, and integrates complex system components and evaluates overall effectiveness, cost (including cost/benefit analysis), reliability (risk analysis), and safety
  • Designs, develops, executes, and evaluates testing, product specifications, and process validation plans
  • Ability to perform detail-oriented work with a high degree of accuracy on multiple projects
  • Expert with internal combustion engine performance development and specification
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with a deep understanding of internal combustion engine design, operation, and testing
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills with the ability to clearly interpret and present complex simulation results to technical and non-technical audiences
  • Collaborate with internal manufacturing partners, contract manufacturers, designers, and product specialists to optimize complex and advanced designs for performance

Nice to have:

  • Master’s degree in mechanical engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field of study
  • Advanced hands-on experience in IC engines and engine system development
  • Advanced experience using ATI Vision in the use for calibration development for internal combustion engines
  • Advanced experience in applying MATLAB/Simulink and Python in internal combustion engine development
  • Comprehensive knowledge of internal combustion engines and effective engine test methods
  • Experience with MATLAB/Simulink, Python, Labview, Vision, Concerto or similar to modify embedded control software
  • Extensive experience with internal combustion engine performance development and specification
  • Understanding of thermodynamics and fluid dynamics
  • Understanding of internal combustion engine thermodynamic cycles
  • Demonstrated written communication and presentation skills
  • Previous experience with SAP or equivalent ERP
  • Ability to easily apply engineering knowledge and experience to improve products, services and processes
  • Ability to translate technical information to all audiences
  • Substantial data analysis and control/diagnostic feature creation skills
  • Ample familiarity with systems engineering based problem solving
  • Proven ability to work well with others as part of a diverse global team
