Job description

• We are looking for an experienced Model-Based Development (MBD) Controls Engineer to join our advanced energy storage engineering team. You will be responsible for developing, simulating, and generating production-ready embedded software code for Clarios Battery Management Systems (BMS). Using MATLAB/Simulink and automated code generation tools, you will transform control strategies into highly optimized embedded software that ensures battery safety, longevity, and efficiency.

Key Responsibilities:

• Control Algorithm Development: Design and develop control algorithms and state machines for BMS applications (e.g., Cell Balancing, State of Charge (SoC), State of Health (SoH), and fault diagnostics) using MATLAB and Simulink.
• Model-Based Development: Build, maintain, and execute Model-in-the-Loop (MIL) and Software-in-the-Loop (SIL) testing to validate control logic against system specifications.
• Auto-Code Generation: Utilize TargetLink or Embedded Coder to convert verified Simulink models into production-quality, MISRA-C compliant embedded code.
• Software Optimization: Optimize generated code for execution speed, memory footprint, and integration within automotive Electronic Control Units (ECUs).
• Collaboration: Work alongside Systems Engineers to interpret technical specifications and Hand-off generated code to the ECU integration team.

Required Qualifications:

• Education: BE / BTech / ME / MTech in Electrical, Electronics, Controls, or Instrumentation Engineering.
• Technical Expertise: Strong proficiency in MATLAB and Simulink for model-based application design.
• Code Gen Tools: Hands‑on experience with production code generation tools, specifically dSPACE TargetLink or MathWorks Embedded Coder.
• Domain Knowledge: Solid understanding of battery physics, cell characteristics, and fundamental Battery Management System (BMS) architectures.
• Standards: Familiarity with automotive standards such as MISRA-C, ISO 26262 (Functional Safety), and ASPICE.
