To strengthen its engineering team, we are currently looking for a System Engineer – Efficiency & Mission Profile.

Your Role
As a System Engineer – Efficiency & Mission Profile, you will act as the interface between vehicle-level requirements and transmission subsystem design.

Your mission will be to define, analyze, and optimize transmission behavior with a strong focus on:
Energy efficiency
Overall performance
Drivability
Real-world mission profile performance

You will work closely with system architects, hardware, controls, calibration, testing, and validation teams on both current and next-generation hybrid transmission platforms.

Key Responsibilities :
Define, maintain, and verify system-level requirements related to transmission efficiency and performance
Develop mission profiles representing real-world usage (standardized and customer-specific duty cycles)
Perform energy flow analysis and loss breakdowns at transmission and subsystem level
Support technical trade-offs between mechanical architecture, control strategies, and efficiency targets
Build and use system-level simulation models to predict performance under different mission profiles and load conditions
Correlate simulation results with vehicle testing, subsystem validation, and production data
Collaborate with Hardware, Controls, Calibration, Testing & Validation teams to ensure targets are met
Define and support characterization tests (clutches, bearings, drag losses, etc.)
Participate in design reviews, DFMEA activities, and validation strategies
Contribute to the development of next-generation transmission concepts
Conduct benchmark analyses of competitor systems to identify best practices and innovation opportunities

Profile / Requirements :

Your Profile :
Minimum 5 years of experience in transmission system development, ideally focused on efficiency or testing
Master's degree in Automotive, Mechanical, or Mechatronics Engineering
Strong analytical mindset with a data-driven approach
Hands-on experience with simulation tools (Matlab / Simulink or equivalent)
Experience in data acquisition and analysis
Solid understanding of transmission architectures, loss mechanisms, and energy flow analysis
Strong problem-solving skills and system-level thinking
Comfortable working in multidisciplinary and international teams
Knowledge of requirements management tools (e.g. Polarion) is a plus
