The candidates will be responsible for test execution to ensure functional objectives and durability goals are met. This includes, test planning, Bill-of-material development, test cell setup and debug, test schedule development, root cause analysis of test stoppages throughout the test and finally to lead the test article inspection and report following the end of each test. The test engineer will initiate root cause analysis and solution development process if and when test failures are identified.

Basic Qualifications:

• Bachelors Degree in Mechanical/Aerospace/Electrical or related degree field
• A minimum of 3 years of engineering experience in Automatic Transmission hardware design, driveline design or hardware validation
• Strong communication and presentation skills as well as experience with basic PC software (e.g. MS Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Project)
• Candidate must be highly motivated, self-directed, have the ability to manage multiple complex projects, and have a positive attitude

Preferred Qualifications:

• Master of Science degree in Engineering
• 5 years of experience in transmission design, development, and testing
• DFSS Green Belt
• Calibration or controls development preferred for DVE opportunities
• Specific experience with software, calibration, transmission efficiency and/or thermal management is desired
• An understanding of transmission operation and the interaction between gears, clutches, and electrohydraulic components is desired
• Experience with transmission testing procedures, in vehicle or on dynamometer, and other related considerations are also highly valued
