Job summary

Ford Motor Company in Dearborn, MI, is seeking a research-focused engineer to define and prototype next-generation simulation architectures for hybridized emissions control systems. You will collaborate with engine, emissions, and aftertreatment teams to connect models across tools and fidelity levels, advancing AI-enabled calibration and integration within the pipeline.

The role emphasizes leading-edge research, with a 3–5 year horizon for agentic AI and co-simulation approaches, and a hybrid

Qualifications

Master’s degree in Mechanical / Chemical / Automotive / Controls Engineering or related field.
3+ years in engine, emissions, or aftertreatment simulation (e.g., GT-Power, WAVE-RT, or similar)
Experience developing or integrating physics-based models of combustion, emissions, or aftertreatment systems.
Programming in Python, MATLAB/Simulink, or C/C++.
Demonstrated ability to research, prototype, and independently drive open-ended technical problems to a working solution.
Strong written and verbal communication skills for technical and non-technical audiences.

Responsibilities

Research and prototype simulation architectures for integrating models of hybridized emissions control systems.
Develop and integrate models for electrified aftertreatment components (electric DPFs, heated catalysts) with hardware and controls teams.
Explore co-simulation and model integration methods across teams and fidelity levels for next-generation systems.
Build proof-of-concept integration frameworks and demonstrate feasibility before broader adoption.
