Job description

Role Overview:

We are seeking a highly skilled OBD Diagnosis Calibration Engineer to specialize in the calibration, validation, and testing of diagnosis functions for specific Engine/Vehicle Control Units (EMS). This role bridges software preparation and hands‑on validation, requiring you to create software label lists, perform Labcar testing, and execute extensive physical calibration. This position requires a high degree of mobility, including extensive domestic travel and field expeditions (approximately 50 trips of ~15 days each) across diverse terrains and extreme ambient conditions.

Key Responsibilities:

• SW Functionality & Pre-Calibration: Create EMS software functions and diagnosis-related label lists. Perform pre‑calibration of diagnosis functions and execute preliminary tests on Labcars.
• Testing & Data Acquisition: Prepare test setups and execute diagnosis software functionality tests on Labcars, chassis dynamometers, and vehicles under real driving conditions.
• Field Expeditions & Travel: Manage test vehicles according to predefined procedures. Participate in vehicle expeditions under extreme ambient conditions, requiring up to 50 field travels (~15 days per trip).
• Deliverables & Documentation: Deliver finalized calibration data (DCM/PACO/CDFx files) and ensure timely updates in ICDM & VCDM. Author diagnosis system documents, calibration development reports (internal/external), and application guidelines.
• Collaboration & Review: Maintain frequent status updates with internal teams and customers. Participate in alignment discussions and present data for review with calibration functional experts.
• Innovation & Mentorship: Drive calibration efficiency improvements, assist in automation tool development, and handle know‑how transfer to team peers.

Required Skills & Qualifications:

• Technical Expertise: Strong background in OBD (On-Board Diagnostics) principles, engine management systems (EMS), and diagnosis function validation.
• Data & File Management: Proficiency in handling dataset configurations, managing data inside ICDM & VCDM, and generating standard calibration formats like DCM, PACO, and CDFx.
• Testing & Tools: Experience in setting up test instrumentation, testing on Labcars/Dynos, and analyzing field data. Familiarity with automated calibration tooling is a plus.
• Communication & Project Skills: Strong analytical capabilities with the ability to clearly present reports to clients and collaborate internally.
• Travel & Adaptability: Absolute willingness to travel extensively for field trails (~750 total days in the field) across tough terrains and extreme weather conditions.
