Senior Project Engineer

Responsibilities

• Specialize in powertrain calibration and development, focusing on base engine, OBD calibration, and validation activities in engine dyno and in‑vehicle environments.
• Conduct vehicle and/or engine testing, verify data quality, post‑process the data, and analyze results to support overall project goals.
• Lead the creation and calibration of base engine controls, aftertreatment controls, hybrid controls, and on‑board diagnostic (OBD) systems.
• Perform general powertrain development work, validation, and certification activities on‑road, on chassis dynos, and engine dynos.
• Frequently prepare and present technical and project status presentations to program managers, supervisors at FEV, and FEV customers.

• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or Automotive Systems Engineering.
• 36 months of experience in engine or hybrid powertrain and sub‑system calibration or testing.
• Experience applying knowledge of CARB, EPA, and similar regulations.
• Fundamental knowledge of thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and internal combustion engines.
• Experience with CI and SI combustion processes, diesel aftertreatment systems, and commercially available calibration and development tools.
• Experience gathering data and running tests on engine dynos, in‑vehicle, and chassis dynos.
• Ability to interpret emissions results and assess the impacts of proposed base calibration changes on emissions performance.
• Experience with the OBD calibration process, including creating and executing test plans to define OBD threshold parts and evaluating the robustness of an OBD monitor to various noise factors.
• Experience interpreting engine and aftertreatment control algorithms and creating experiments to validate new control functions.
