Senior Engineer Emissions and OBD Engine Calibration Fleet

Hyundai America Technical Center, Inc. (HATCI), is the design, technology and engineering arm for all North American models of the Korea-based Hyundai Motor Group. The Electrified Propulsion Test & Verification (ePTV) team is one of the groups in the Electrified Propulsion Development division of HATCI responsible for delivering propulsion system performance, emissions compliance, onboard diagnostics, quality, validation, and technical support for Hyundai, Genesis, and Kia vehicles.

We are seeking a highly motivated and experienced Emissions and OBD Engine Calibration Senior Fleet Engineer to support the gasoline and hybrid validation fleet team in Superior Township, Michigan. This position is responsible for the verification of pre-production vehicle emissions calibrations, aftertreatment, and on-board diagnostics for future Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) and Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV) applications, including advanced emissions programs targeting LEV IV, Tier 4, SULEV20, and SULEV30 compliance. This position reports to the senior manager of ePTV.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

• Responsible for validating emissions compliance, OBD performance, and aftertreatment durability for gasoline, hybrid, and future electrified powertrain programs via mileage accumulation fleet vehicles.
• Define and execute North American emissions durability fleet programs, including vehicle deployment, mileage accumulation, route strategy, durability testing schedules, and overall fleet health management from 0 to 150,000 miles.
• Develop and maintain fleet validation plans to verify compliance with EPA, CARB, LEV IV, Tier 4, SULEV20, SULEV30, and future regulatory requirements throughout the full useful life of the vehicle.
• Lead periodic emissions and OBD evaluations throughout the fleet lifecycle, including tailpipe emissions testing, diagnostic system verification, catalyst aging assessments, and emissions deterioration analysis at defined mileage intervals.
• Analyze emissions deterioration trends relative to certification and engineering development targets, providing technical recommendations and risk assessments to program leadership.
• Lead root-cause investigations for emissions, OBD, catalyst efficiency, drivability, and aftertreatment performance issues identified during durability fleet operation.
• Support development and implementation of corrective actions, calibration enhancements, hardware recommendations, and control strategy improvements to ensure emissions compliance and robustness through end-of-life requirements.
• Support definition of vehicle data acquisition requirements for fleet vehicles, including data logger architecture, communication interfaces, data collection strategies, and parameter selection for gasoline, hybrid, and future powertrain configurations.
• Establish standardized data acquisition specifications and measurement plans that provide visibility into performance, catalyst behavior, emissions control system operation, OBD monitor execution, and customer usage conditions.
• Develop and deploy fleet data analytics capabilities, including automated reporting, fleet health monitoring, trend analysis, anomaly detection, statistical analysis, and predictive analytics methodologies.
• Utilize vehicle and emissions datasets to identify emerging issues early in the development process and implement preventative actions prior to certification and Start of Production (SOP).
• Drive continuous improvement of connected fleet technologies, cloud-based analytics tools and fleet monitoring systems.
• Responsible for logging, tracking, prioritizing, and driving discovered issues to closure in coordination with local and global engineering teams.
• Generate summaries on fleet status, emissions performance, catalyst aging trends, OBD readiness, and risk assessments.
• Collaborate closely with powertrain controls, calibration, aftertreatment, vehicle integration, durability, testing, certification, software, and data science organizations to achieve program objectives.
• Manage engineering equipment and ensure no lost items during audits.
• Develop capability in emissions durability, diagnostics, connected vehicle analytics, aftertreatment technologies, and data-driven engineering methodologies.
• Provide mentorship and technical leadership to engineering team members.
• Support continuous improvement initiatives focused on testing efficiency, fleet utilization, emissions modeling, predictive analytics, and issue detection methodologies.
• Travel domestically and internationally up to 15%
