Automotive Hardware Loop Simulation; HILS Engineer

Position: Automotive Hardware in the Loop Simulation (HILS) Engineer
Lumenance is looking for a self motivated, hands on HILS engineer with strong communication skills. This is an "open" contract engineering position with an industry leading OEM.
This position requires the engineer to be a US citizen or permanent resident.
You'll be working under more senior automotive engineers performing the following:

* Plan and setup of HILS test environments for various ground vehicle body electronics systems.

* Create and manage validation plan and test results with HILS system measurements, and constantly seek ways to improve simulation and test quality.

* Interpret electrical schematics and select/configure appropriate HILS I/O.

* Perform some wiring harness fabrication and assist in the debugging of wiring harnesses.

* Analyze design and/or requirements specifications and authoring test specifications to validate them.

* Author robust test scripts using dSPACE Test Automation Framework and dSPACE Automation Desk software.

* Create models in Matlab/Simulink to support HILS test and/or generate test stimulus data.

* Analyzing test results and troubleshooting/debugging HILS system using dSPACE Control Desk software, Vector CAN, oscilloscope, etc.

* Manage libraries of test cases, models, and requirements across multiple variations of ECUs and vehicle platforms.

* Create and maintain a knowledge database of test systems, procedures, and best practices.
