- Work effectively with others: receive and provide feedback clearly, kindly, and constructively.
- Data-driven: translate subjective feedback into effective calibration changes through data analysis and sound reasoning.
- Superb written communication skills. Document progress and findings consistently and deliberately.
- Experience with relevant engineering tools, including a calibration interface like Vector CANape, ECU diagnostic tools, Matlab/Simulink, Git, etc.
- Bachelor’s degree in electrical, computer, mechanical or other appropriate engineering discipline is required.
- 3+ years of relevant professional experience.
Responsibilities
- Calibrate industry-leading torque control systems on high performance vehicles to achieve performance, drivability, vehicle dynamics, and efficiency goals.
- Define attribute goals for vehicle performance and work with powertrain, chassis, and other controls engineers to tune hardware and software simultaneously to achieve them.
- Work closely with controls engineers to develop a strong understanding of the system and improve algorithms to meet attribute goals.
- Travel to test facilities near-by and around the world to calibrate systems in all relevant situations.
- Develop and execute test plans to validate calibrations against subjective, objective, regulatory, and functional safety requirements.
Preferred Qualifications
- Driving experience recommended.
