• Deliver timely, high-quality simulation-driven design recommendations to stakeholders.

Required Skills

• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering is required
• Proficiency in classical control theory, specifically as applied to Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) systems using both the time and frequency domain
• Demonstrated experience developing engine control systems for gas, diesel, and dual fuel engines, including aftertreatment solutions
• Advanced expertise in Matlab/Simulink with a focus on designing and verifying control concepts using GT-Power engine models.
• Strong background in modeling dynamic systems through physics-based white box models, black box approaches, and system identification techniques
• Exceptional analytical and understanding of complex engineering concepts and applications
• Proven self-motivation with the capacity to effectively communicate technical concepts to team members, cross-functional groups, management, and external suppliers
• Prior involvement in product development processes (NPI, NTI, and CPI)
