Job Description:

Excellent career opportunity with an established company in the automotive industry -- an organization committed to innovation, process improvement, quality control and customer service!  This employer is a key resource for leading OEM's, Tier I suppliers and the automotive aftermarket with OEM customers that include Audi, Chrysler, Ford, General Motors, Honda, Isuzu, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Toyota and Volkswagen!

This is your opportunity to work on bleeding edge technology (such as Automated Driving, Stability Control, Driverless Cars) for a company with a worldwide presence, over 9,000 employees, and a solid reputation for quality -- a global leader where your career can grow and thrive.


To qualify for this role, you must have good experience at ELECTROMECHANICAL / MECHATRONICS in a high volume production environment!



Job Summary:
The Electronic System Design Engineer will play a key role in the development of bleeding edge automotive electro-mechanical control systems and its architecture. If you have a keen interest in the latest innovations in technology such as: Automated Driving, Stability Control, Electronic Braking, Driverless Cars, Collision Avoidance, etc.... this is were you should be! This position touches all the stages -- such as requirements analysis, establishing system design specifications, system design and test verification. The employer is one of the largest global product manufacturers of this type of technology and this is a key role on the team. If you excel in Linear and Non-Linear Digital Control System experience and have strong leadership potential, then this position is well suited to you.  

Experience in Aerospace, Stability Control, Collision Avoidance and Integrated Mechanical and Embedded Control Systems is Highly Desirable.


Responsibilities:

  • ---Development of the electromechanical control system and architecture
  • ---Perform requirement analysis and establish system design specification and test verification
  • ---Collaborate with design engineers to derive the necessary requirements regarding subsystems and components
  • ---Apply theoretical, numerical and testing methodology to ensure the design meets requirements via testing and traceability
  • ---Establishment of baseline system requirements for advanced electric brake applications
  • ---Managing and establishing the core products used for system requirements validation
  • ---Work with cross functional team to establish system and component level requirement specifications to optimize the system architecture and performance.
  • ---Help systems engineer team to insure requirement traceability throughout the development lifecycle
  • ---Work with systems engineer team with establishment of use and test cases with traceability to system requirement specifications.
  • ---Participate in team review to ensure the work is in compliance with A-SPICE and ISO26262.
  • ---Document required evidence report for demonstrating the compliances.
  • ---Ensure complete requirements coverage by optimizing the system architecture and design.
  • ---Establish theoretical system model from first principles using conventional or analytical system dynamics
  • ---Apply modern control theory for developing closed loop model for state feedback control and estimation.
  • ---Use of MiL and RCP bench techniques for validating the closed loop system robustness and parameter sensitivity.
  • ---Verify system performance against the system requirements in case of any subsystem/component level change.
  • ---Perform development verification tests or the Pre-software integration test to verify the system meets the design specification.
  • ---Development of the system countermeasures as per the requirement.
  • ---Request and support specialized equipment development for characterization of electrical and mechanical sub-components of the electro-mechanical assembly under development.
  • ---Work with system test engineer to execute System Test and System Integration Test plans when needed.
