Systems Engineer Calibration

Dearborn
, Michigan
Contract: VMS

Position Description:
Job Title: Advanced Emissions Systems Engineer (Gasoline ICE/HEV/PHEV) Brief Job Description As an Advanced Emissions Systems Engineer, you will lead the concept definition, design, and integration of cutting-edge emissions systems for gasoline-powered Internal Combustion Engines (ICE), Hybrid (HEV), and Plug-in Hybrid (PHEV) applications. Your primary focus will be developing hardware and software strategies to achieve the stringent regulatory standards, including SULEV20, SULEV15, and SULEV10. You will serve as a technical lead, balancing cross-functional trade-offs between mechanical, electrical, and chemical domains to deliver an optimized, durable propulsion system.

Skills Required:
Chemical Engineering, Quality Control, Electrical Engineering, System Integration, Project Management, Mechanical Engineering

Skills Preferred:
Performance Testing, Regulatory Affairs, powertrain, Quality Control, Analytical Chemistry, Leadership, Data Modeling, Environmental Compliance, Project Planning, MATLAB modeling

Experience Required:
• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related Systems Engineering field. • 5+ years of experience in propulsion or emissions system design and integration. • 3+ years of experience with Systems Engineering principles and quality tools (e.g., DFMEA, Boundary Diagrams, P-Diagrams). • 1+ years of project management experience

Experience Preferred:
• Master’s degree or PhD in Engineering. • Strong project management skills with the ability to coordinate complex technical workstreams. • Direct experience with emissions regulations, compliance and testing. • In-depth understanding of HEV/PHEV powertrain architectures and their specific impact on emissions (e.g., cold-start management, thermal transients). • Experience leading cross-functional technical trade-offs in a high-volume production environment. • Cross-domain familiarity with engine controls, mechanical packaging, and catalyst chemistry. • Demonstrated experience with 1D modeling tools and methodology. (e.g., GT-Suite, MATLAB/Simulink)

Education Required:
Bachelor's Degree

Additional Information :
***HYBRID / 4 days per week in the office*** • System Design & Integration: Lead the definition and design of new emissions concepts, integrating hardware, controls, and packaging across the engine, transmission, generator, and aftertreatment systems. • Cross-Functional Leadership: Coordinate subsystems and lead technical trade-off discussions across different engineering domains to achieve an optimized system-level solution. • Project Management: Drive project milestones and workstream coordination using the Global Technical Development System (GTDS) to ensure timely delivery of project goals. • Quality & Systems Engineering: Develop and maintain core systems engineering and quality documentation, including Boundary Diagrams, P-Diagrams, and Design Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (DFMEA). • Requirements Management: Define attribute targets and cascade system/subsystem requirements, functions, and use cases to ensure compliance throughout the vehicle's full useful life.
