Job description

Powertrain OBD Calibration Engineer - Driveability and Emission/Gasflow Engineer

Driveability and Emissions (D&E) Calibration Engineer is responsible for:

• Developing and implementing best practice calibration solutions and performing diagnostic verification testing.
• Calibrating and validating the in-field and in-plant diagnostics relative to engine torque delivery and emissions and regulatory compliance calibrations.
• Collecting passing and failing data to understand the variability of each diagnostic strategy to minimize false pass/fail and ensure robustness.
• Validating calibration according to the DVP&R, releasing calibrations, supporting issue resolution of corporate fleet and in-field concerns, and providing input to hardware designs as necessary.
• Providing regular overview summaries and detailed reports on specific assignments, including timing projections.
• The candidate should expect to travel 4 - 8 weeks throughout the year for system validation/verification.

Minimum Qualifications:

• Bachelor of Science in Mechanical or Electrical Engineering or a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science or equivalent from an ABET accredited university.
• 2 years or more experience in Powertrain systems calibration development, Driveability and Emissions calibration.
• Knowledge of internal combustion engines.
• Understanding of CARB diagnostic regulations.
• Working knowledge of calibration tools (INCA/ATI), emissions regulations, and powertrain technologies.
• Fundamental knowledge in MatLab/Simulink.
• Utilizing a multi-functional tool chain, requiring familiarity with in-house developed calibration tools -- I-Box, DC Plot & HIL (Hardware-in-the-Loop) testers.
• Industry standard calibration tools (ETAS INCA, MatLab, CANalyzer).
• Outstanding problem-solving and analytical skills.
