Job Description
We are the movers of the world and the makers of the future. We get up every day roll up our sleeves and build a better world together. At Ford were all a part of something bigger than ourselves. Are you ready to change the way the world moves
In this position...
The Cyber Calibration Engineering team is looking for a highly qualified and motivated engineer to develop vehicle propulsion system physical models for propulsion control system performance characterizations verification and validation use cases across electric hybrid electric and conventional vehicles. The Cyber Calibration Engineering team is part of Vehicle Propulsion System Engineering (VPSE) organization that characterizes and validates the propulsion control system calibration to deliver customer attributes and regulatory requirements. The candidate will be responsible for developing cuttingedge analytical solutions for SIL (Software in the Loop) and HIL (Hardware in the Loop) environments to solve complex electrified propulsion systems challenges and optimize customer experience of Ford Motor Companys electrified vehicles. The application of SIL / HIL based propulsion system calibration processes to our calibration development and validation work is new and developing and presents an exciting opportunity for new capability and process development. This position is in the VPSE organization and Cyber Calibration Engineering Team where you will work alongside team members developing SIL and HIL environment capability for calibration. The Cyber Calibration Engineering Team is committed to envisioning and creating methods tools and processes that increase our calibration development and validation efficiency and quality.
Responsibilities
What youll do...
- Develop and apply physical system models across mechanical electrical and thermal domains to support electrified vehicle propulsion system calibration use cases in SIL and HIL environments.
- Use optimization methods to tune subsystem models to match expected behaviors.
- Envision and create methods tools and processes to improve model development and deployment process robustness.
- Perform thorough unit testing of the system/subsystem models to ensure accuracy and robustness of the models.
- Develop tools and methods to automate model development processes for improved efficiency.
- Use version control systems (Github) to maintain model traceability and perform documentation of models methods and processes.
- Collaborate with SIL and HIL integration engineers to ensure models satisfy interface and usecase requirements for vehicle level SIL/HIL models.
- Collaborate with D&R engineers to understand design specs and obtain required model parameterization data.
- Collaborate with vehicle test engineers to develop instrumentation plan and obtain necessary data for model development and validation.
- Partner with research engineers to transfer new technology models to product development.
- Create documentation and present work to technical forums.
Qualifications
Youll have...
BS in Mechanical or Electrical Engineering or equivalent.
2 years of academic/professional experience in propulsion systems development with an understanding of the calibration process.
2 years of academic/professional experience developing and testing propulsion system analytical models.
Even better you may have...
MS/PhD in Mechanical or Electrical Engineering or equivalent.
5 years of propulsion systems development experience with an understanding of the calibration process.
5 years of experience developing and testing propulsion system analytical models.
Knowledge of electrified and ICE propulsion systems/components and their operation and interactions within the system.
Experience with powertrain and cabin thermal management system simulation.
