Job Summary
We are seeking a seasoned Control Systems Engineer with 7+ years of experience in engine testing, vehicle calibration, emissions compliance, and On-Board Diagnostics (OBD). The ideal candidate will have proven experience collaborating with OEMs to optimize propulsion systems, ensure compliance, and deliver production-ready solutions. Expertise in dyno/vehicle testing, OBD strategy development, and interpreting OEM requirements is critical for success in this role.

Key Responsibilities

Engine & Vehicle Calibration:

• Develop and optimize control algorithms for internal combustion engines (ICE) and hybrid systems, aligning with OEM performance, drivability, and durability targets.
• Conduct dyno and vehicle-level calibration for emissions, fuel economy, and compliance with OEM-specific standards.

Emissions & OBD Compliance:

• Design and validate OBD strategies to meet OEM and regulatory requirements (EPA, CARB, Euro 6/7, China 6).
• Partner with OEM teams to troubleshoot emissions issues and deliver certification-ready systems.

Testing & Validation:

• Plan and execute engine/vehicle testing (dyno, on-road, environmental) to validate calibration strategies, ensuring alignment with OEM timelines and deliverables.
• Analyze test data and refine control logic for robustness across diverse OEM applications.

OEM Collaboration & System Integration:

• Work closely with OEM engineering teams to integrate controls for engines, hybrid systems, and aftertreatment hardware.
• Translate OEM requirements into actionable calibration and validation plans.

Regulatory Expertise:

• Maintain fluency in global emissions/OBD regulations (LEV, WLTP, RDE) and OEM-specific implementation standards.

Qualifications and Skills

• Education: Bachelor's/Master's in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Automotive Engineering, or related field.
• Experience:
  
  • 7+ years in controls/calibration engineering, with focus on ICE, hybrid systems, or heavy-duty engines.
  • Hands-on experience working directly with OEMs on calibration, emissions certification, or OBD projects.
  • Track record in emissions compliance (EPA, Euro, China 6) and OBD-II/III development for OEM applications.
• Technical Skills:
  
  • Proficiency with OEM-standard tools (ETAS INCA, Vector CANape, ATI Vision) and protocols (CAN/LIN, UDS).
  • Experience with MATLAB/Simulink for model-based calibration and rapid prototyping.
  • Strong knowledge of OEM calibration processes, combustion dynamics, and aftertreatment systems (SCR, DPF).
• Soft Skills:
  
  • Ability to navigate OEM project workflows, deadlines, and technical documentation standards.
  • Collaborative mindset with experience presenting technical updates to OEM stakeholders.
