Transmission Controls Engineer

Job Description :

About the Role

As Controls Engineer you will design, develop and validate the control strategies of our innovative hybrid transmission. It has a modular design with variants that are suitable for mild-, plug-in and full hybrid vehicles.
Your expertise will contribute to cutting-edge SW solutions within the automotive industry, ensuring compliance with functional-, performance- and safety standards.

Responsibilities:

- You will join a team of >20 controls engineers that develop the controls software for our hybrid product line.

- The controls software is developed according to the Model Based Development process (V-cycle) with Simulink. You will work on the design and validation of specific functions or modules in the application software, e.g. driving strategy, coordination, clutch- or gear actuation, diagnostics, functional safety.

- You will be involved in every step of the software development V-cycle for the functions that you are working on, i.e. defining the requirements (in alignment with the customer), designing the control strategies, implementing them in Simulink, verifying them in a simulation environment (MiL) and supporting the validation on other test platforms (HiL, test bench, vehicle).

- You will work together closely with different internal stakeholders (system engineering team, functional validation & performance team, ESW team, testing team and simulation team) contributing to the realization of new powertrain technologies and products.

Profile / Requirements :

- Master's or PhD in Mechatronics, Controls, Electrical Engineering or similar
- 3+ years of work experience, preferably in the automotive context
- Extensive experience with a broad set of MathWorks products (including Matlab, Simulink, Stateflow, EmbededCoder)
- Experience with production-intended control strategy design, for code generation purposes.
- Ability to perform structured root-cause analysis of complex software and system-level issues.
- Experience performing functional and nonfunctional tests (mainly at SW validation level) for automotive components, subsystems or systems
- Experience with Data and measurement analysis (e.g., in canape)
- Good knowledge of ISO26262 (mainly part 6) and ASPICE SWE1 to SWE6
- Basic understanding of AUTOSAR
- Experience with Agile teams and familiarity with toolchains like JIRA, is an asset
- You proceed according to a good methodology in development and problem solving.
