The Emissions Test Engineer will serve as a technical contributor within the test engineering team, responsible for operating, maintaining, and improving state-of-the-art emissions measurement systems. This role blends hands-on laboratory work with process development, equipment ownership, and cross-functional collaboration. In addition to emissions testing responsibilities, this role will provide leadership and program management for other types of testing within the technical center to include gas stand thermodynamic and functional testing, engine stand testing, electric machine and power electronics testing, and vibration and harshness testing, among others.
Job Responsibility:
Operate advanced measurement systems for engine and component testing
Acquire, install, and commission new testing equipment as needed
Maintain and manage emissions instrumentation to ensure accuracy, reliability, and uptime
Perform routine and advanced calibration of emissions analyzers and related systems
Develop, document, and implement test procedures for measurement and validation
Ensure test processes meet internal quality standards and regulatory requirements
Identify opportunities to improve test efficiency, repeatability, and data quality
Work closely with test operators, technicians, and engineers to ensure proper execution of emissions tests
Troubleshoot equipment issues and support root-cause investigations
Provide technical guidance on emissions measurement best practices
Maintain documentation related to equipment, processes, and calibration records
Contribute to lab capability planning and technology upgrades
Create and manage program timelines to meet critical milestones
Partner with product engineering to support development programs
Facilitate cross training for team members on test engineering tools and processes as needed
Requirements:
Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Automotive Engineering, or related field
6 years of experience or equivalent education and experience
Hands-on experience with engine or industrial exhaust emissions testing (e.g., FTIR, FID, NDIR, PM measurement systems)
Strong understanding of emissions measurement principles, calibration methods, and regulatory standards
Ability to diagnose equipment issues and implement corrective actions
Must be willing to travel 1-2 times per year
