Descripción del empleo

We are seeking a highly motivated and experienced Application Technical Team Lead (PRS Lead Calibrator) to join our dynamic team. This critical role will be responsible for coordinating the development and verification of powercube calibration releases across various functional areas within the application portfolio. The successful candidate will drive calibration maturity, arbitrate technical tradeoffs, and work cross-functionally to achieve program objectives, ensuring the highest standards of safety, regulatory compliance, and performance. This position requires strong technical expertise in calibration methodologies, broad exposure to calibration feature development and regulatory requirements, excellent organizational & communication skills, a collaborative mindset, and the ability to lead and track complex and dynamic development cycles.

• Location: Auburn Hills MI 48326
• Job Title: Controls & Calibration Application Technical Team Lead
• Rate Range: $41/hour to $43/hour W2. The rate may be negotiable based on experience, education, geographic location, and other factors.

Responsibilities

• As a Lead Calibrator, your key responsibilities will include:Coordinate the development, system level validation, and release of powercube releases (PCR’s) for PCAL PRC and Propulsion Systems feature teams.
• Execute system level PRS validation in coordination with Vehicle Integration teams to ensure proper functional alignment between PRS and non-PRS modules.
• Work cross-functionally with other calibration subsystems and vehicle integration/validation teams to review issues and implement robust solutions, adhering to best practices and established calibration methodologies.
• Coordinate the implementation of specific controls features into development and production releases to align with program timing in conjunction with Controls Managers
• Develop and validate calibration solutions for specific features that fall within the CCSI and/or PCAL PRC perimeter of responsibility in collaboration with core calibration feature teams and PCAL PRC feature COE’s.
• Skillfully arbitrate calibration tradeoffs and resource constraints (physical and virtual) between calibration subsystems to meet program objectives and timing, including safety, regulatory compliance, fuel economy/range, emissions, drivability, and propulsion system stability while maintaining collaborative team-first mindset within the broader team.
• Coordinate technical and logistical CCSI calibration support of PCAL PRC feature teams to enable successful core calibration development on compressed timelines including mule commissioning, development resource “support”, and running-change regulatory documentation.
• Represent the application at management ride and drives and PRC program reviews, providing status updates, risk escalation, expert insights, and technical explanations.
• Support PCAL PRC Quality Gate reviews for applications providing PCAL feature teams with program updates and input from Vehicle Integration as needed.
