About this role
Role Overview
- Lead resolution of program issues by aligning co‑simulation partners to meet technical and timing demands.
- Act as the single point of contact for vehicle dynamics co‑sim users, resolving usage concerns.
- Forecast and planning needs, escalating needs for required resources.
- Identify strategic opportunities for innovating processes and methods.
- Align software releases, calibration milestones, and vehicle hardware release milestones to ensure the virtual vehicle co‑simulation package is consistently up to date.
- Design, develop, and integrate virtual models representing both hardware and software behavior for active chassis systems such as Electronic Brake Control Module (EBCM), Electric Power Steering (EPS), Active Rear Steering (ARS), Semi‑Active Damping System (SADS), and others into co‑sim frameworks for Electric Vehicle (EV), Plug‑in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV), and Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) programs to enable vehicle dynamics performance and chassis controls software development, calibration, and validation.
- Develop and integrate multi‑body and 1‑D vehicle dynamics models including vehicle mass, aerodynamics, brake system, front and rear steering systems, front and rear suspension systems, tire models, propulsion systems, and sensor models such as the Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) into Software‑in‑the‑Loop (SIL) and Hardware‑in‑the‑Loop (HIL) simulation platforms.
- Create, evaluate, review, and verify Functional Mock‑up Unit (FMU) based embedded controller models for EBCM, EPS, ARS, SADS, and other vehicle systems.
- Create and evaluate serial data communication interfaces for embedded chassis controller models to simulate communication between Electronic Control Units (ECUs) through Controller Area Network (CAN), Local Interconnect Network (LIN), and Ethernet bus messages for SIL and HIL simulations.
Requirements
- BS Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Software Engineering or Computer Science or related field.
- 5+ years of relevant experience in the space.
- Proven ability to work in teams, balancing technical theory with practical limitations.
- Strong oral and written communication skills.
Benefits
- From day one, we're looking out for your well-being–at work and at home–so you can focus on realizing your ambitions.
