Résumé du poste

General Motors is seeking an experienced propulsion system engineer to build and validate analytical models for electrified and conventional propulsion. You will work on 1D/3D models, integrate cross-domain plant models for Siemens NX/GT-SUITE environments, and lead analysis-driven design decisions.

The role emphasizes collaboration across global teams, mentorship of junior staff, and the development of automation tools in Python or MATLAB.

Qualifications

• Bachelor of Science in Engineering.
• 5+ years of experience with simulation, design, testing, or release of propulsion related systems.
• 1 year of experience with GT-SUITE, AMESIM or similar software.
• Extensive experience with the principles of vehicle propulsion system design, operation, or testing.

Responsabilités

• Conceptualize, build, and exercise analytical system level models for electrified and conventional propulsion systems using 1D software tools (GT-SUITE, AMESIM, MATLAB, Simulink or similar)
• Integrate plant models of different domains into a larger system level model capable of “Software or Hardware (SiL or HiL) in the Loop” Co-Simulation
• Provide component-level and/or system-level design recommendations to Design Responsible Engineers based on interpretation of analysis results
• Own and advance analysis practices and/or tools to improve prediction fidelity and execution speed
• Collaborate with analysis counterparts across several VDDV teams representing global propulsion systems and vehicle engineering
• Mentor, train and lead our TCS India colleagues as well as new team members
• Provide technical leadership and problem resolution by leveraging analysis results
• Lead efficiency improvement projects, including the development of automation tools via Python or MATLAB
