Electric Vehicle
Responsibilities
Design and implement advanced control algorithms and embedded firmware to ensure robust and high performance system behavior
Lead system level architecture and behavioral modeling, defining control logic, functional behavior, and multi domain system interactions
Apply Model Based System Design (MBSD) principles to structure requirements, define control strategies, and maintain full traceability across the development lifecycle
Develop and execute system level modeling and simulation workflows to analyze dynamics, evaluate design tradeoffs, and validate integrated concepts
Integrate and optimize embedded control solutions, combining auto generated and handwritten C/C++ code for real time, safety critical environments
Collaborate across systems, hardware, firmware, and product engineering teams to translate requirements into implementable architectures and designs
Build reusable architecture frameworks, modeling templates, and control design patterns to support scalability and standardization
Execute verification and validation activities (e.g. MIL/SIL/HIL, model level testing, simulation, and integrated firmware validation)
Advance enterprise MBSD processes, including model governance, requirements management, architecture design and analysis, controls/FW simulation workflows, and CI/CD automation
Provide technical leadership by mentoring engineers, guiding best practices, and owning programs from concept through integrated system delivery
Qualification
Required
Bachelor's degree in engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical discipline from an accredited institution
Twelve (12) years of hands on experience with MATLAB/Simulink across the full Model Based Design lifecycle, including requirements, architecture, modeling, simulation, code generation, and testing
Five (5) years of experience in complex control system architecture and design, including integration with firmware and hardware
Strong proficiency in embedded C/C++ programming with real time microcontroller implementation
Preferred
Master's degree or specialization in Model Based Control Design
Strong foundation in Electrical Engineering
Deep understanding of power systems and power electronics domains
Proficiency with architecture modeling tools such as System Composer or IBM Rhapsody
Experience with Requirements Engineering processes and tools, such as JAMA or DNG
Familiarity with CI/CD practices and source control tools (e.g., GitHub), including automation workflows (e.g., GitHub Actions)
Hands on experience with system level simulations, including architecture level analysis, system logic and behavioral modeling, and performance trade off evaluation
Knowledge of additional system performance modeling languages (e.g., Modelica) and co simulation interoperability standards such as the Functional Mock up Interface (FMI)
Benefits
