• Proven experience with MATLAB for data analysis, model development and simulation automation.
• Good English language skills.
• Strong analytical and conceptual thinking, attention to detail, a quality- and result-driven mindset and a proactive, collaborative attitude.

Responsibilities

• Perform 1D engine simulations, optimisations and model development in GT Suite.
• Carry out DI-Pulse combustion calibration and emission calibration.
• Develop machine learning models for emissions, engine performance and exhaust aftertreatment.
• Validate and calibrate simulation models using measurement data.
• Analyse simulation results, translate findings into clear recommendations and present your conclusions to stakeholders.
• Continuously improve model accuracy, computational efficiency, robustness and usability.
• Initiate model development for new systems, technologies and control concepts.
• Take ownership of the engine models and functions assigned to you.
• Develop and run integrated engine and aftertreatment simulations for tailpipe emissions.
• Potentially work with GT Suite xChem for aftertreatment development.
