Résumé du poste

Médiane Benelux, a leading engineering partner in software, electronics, and cybersecurity, seeks a System Engineer – Efficiency & Mission Profile to enhance transmission-level energy efficiency in next-generation hybrid drivetrains.

You will translate vehicle-level requirements into transmission designs, collaborating with hardware, controls, calibration, and validation teams to optimize performance under real-world drive cycles.

Qualifications

• Master's degree in Automotive, Mechanical, or Mechatronics Engineering.
• Minimum 5 years of experience in transmission system development, ideally with a focus on efficiency or testing.
• Strong data-driven mindset and analytical 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, international teams.
• Knowledge of requirements management tools (e.g., Polarion).

Responsabilités

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